As for the XT idea, I would wait. The XT realy isnt all its cracked up to be. If you want a realy good card to hold you up unitill next years releases, get a 9600 pro. Mine only cost me $150 and its a sweet card. Next year, when the new cards come out, you'll have some extra change to spend on those. IMO, ATI is much better than Nvidia

There will always be a weak link in any computer you buy. This "bottleneck" will either be RAM (in megabytes), CPU speed, Video RAM, or the hard drive.
If you install a 256mb card in a Plll 550, you're wasting money. You'd see a much larger improvement by installing as much RAM as possible, or saving the $ towards a new computer.
As far as LCD monitors, make sure you get one with a fast pixel refresh rate, they are different. Slower rates will result in reduced frame rate on your games.
