okay how about benefits of spending the 80 dollars to switch intel, or is amd good enough?

(monitor will typically run at 1280x1024, but It can push 1600x)

Yeah I'm interested in just switching to intel for hte additional 80 bucks, and I would love to just get a strong single card. I don't really want to deal with SLI nightmares. OKAY so : just so i'm sure on all this, the intel chipsets and mobo, vista 64, and can someone newegg-erize me the best...
