What BD-Rom did you go with and playback software? What OS? Did you get a HD Tuner Card?
It comes with an hd tuner already well an over the air one, and os is windows vista //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif lol no bd rom yet, still tryhing to make up my mind and for now im using powerdvd to play all my dvds on my harddrive.

 
I didnt end up getting the geforce 8800 :(But I did end up getting a geforce super overclocked edition 9x00 card... Oh ya my 3d score was 460 something before the cardand now my 3d06 score is 12,000 something something ( I havent been messing around much with the computer been sick with pneumonia)and my 01 score was in the 32,000 range.

 
I still need some recomendations on a good blu ray drive. Anyone here have any? I was thinking of the lite on or the sony one...
