Yeah, as Pete said, that's nothing to worry about, they'll come with an adapter - and if they don't, the adapters cost maybe 5 bucks at the most.

IMO the GeForce series is seriously lagging the Radeon in performance these days. The 6600GT for $299 is okay, but for that price you might as well get the Radeon X700 Pro - blows any GeForce out of the water and costs about $30 less.

...Aaron I have to say that you are very very wrong. In High-end power the Radeons are more powerful, true...but when it comes down to performance for price; you get the best bang for your buck with the 6600GT all the way up to the 6800GT. And their performance versus Radeons in the same price category is either better, or equally good.

The Geforce 6 series is a HUGE step above the older Geforces and are the best performers for the money.
