It isn't clear here but that includes 2 PCI-E ALBATRON PC6600GT(s) I'm
hoping that running SLI will give me just about all the eye candy in Doom3,
HL2, FEAR and some of the other newer games that I have yet to get that
looks appealing. Does anyone concur? Will I get close?
I got the Albatron 6600GT looked like a good deal at a final price of $124

My Chaintech 6600GT (admittedly PCI-E) works dandy just pulling power from
the slot.
As far as Quake 4 goes, I've noticed that the fps gets a little poky (just
enough to make moving the view
around not smooth). Thankfully, doesn't happen all that often. Running the
6600GT stock on a A64 3700+
ClawHammer (@ 2.6GHz) with the graphics set to 1024x768 high-quality, no-AA.
