Totally in my reach too Sell 8800GTX and buy that thing
That's exactly my plan, kinda. I'll get a $450 loan from my parents and then sell the 8800 GTX for like 300-400 and give them that money.
Do you think you can still get 300-400 (euro's?) for that thing? I'm not entirely sure what I should ask for it, maybe around 350-370 because well, in the shop they go for around 370-400 now too
USD. And yeah, I'm sure I can. I'll put it at a starting price of 300 dollars and see where it goes from there.

Couple years ago ATI said their cards will have a sound chip integrated. Maybe nVidia implemented that.

Get a job
Even if I had one, they would tell me to save all my money.
Go to a store and get a pre-paid credit card...

I would like my gfx card to do processing instead of the processor doing it...

I'm quite sure optical connections can be used for video too.
But seeing as it has HDMI, I wouldn't be surprised it can do audio too.

I'm not sure anymore why they implented an audio chip but it had to do with something advanced with HD or Blu-Ray... It's not just for replacing a sound card if I remember correctly

pre-paid credit cards do not work, you have to provide a social security number and fax them bills and stuff to prove who you are. Its because of the homeland security act or something.

Visa cards? Are you sure? I got one and all they asked for was a name and money.

Not read whole thread but check the sources - that's either the worlds biggest SLI bridge or there's half an inch of plastic you'd have to saw off before you could put into you Motherboard WTF?!?
