    Anybody who owns one of these can I have your thoughts on them for gaming with the 8600M GT card. What games play well, which not so, and is the machine worth it in your opinion?

    The 8600mGT is the best card you can get outside of the 7900 series at the moment.

    They definitely offer a lot of bang for the buck.
