Are you running ATI 5870, 6870 or Nvidia 460?

Yes! I don't know how that old "ATI drivers are horrible" rumour still persists!

Also if you can bear it, (depends on when SOW comes out), wait for the next flagship card to appear on the market, that's when all the current flagship cards really take a price dive.

Personally I'm going to wait 6 months if I can stand it before making my own SOW gaming rig.
