I'm set now. My company gets a decent discount through Dell's website, and I'm able to get an XFX GTS 250 512MB for $125 +tax. So I went ahead and ordered it. I can't imagine a better deal for a folding card than that. I'm actually thinking about getting a second one.

Thats a good deal, OC the shaders a little and you're good for ~6000ppd on most projects.

You might as well get the second one now, you know you want to...

Unfortunately, Dell hasn't got the memo that the GTX 260 isn't the top card on the block anymore... pricing is more than a little retarded for that one:
BFG TECHNOLOGIES GeForce GTX 260 MAXCORE OCX 896 MB GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 Graphics Card : Desktop Accessories | Dell Canada

I think my discount on that is maybe $25 off...
