Hi i looked at the stickied post already and have been lookin around the web to find out if my PC has a PCI-E slot, i have 2 medium sized white slots, 1 small white slot, and 1 larger white slot, all the PCI-E slots i have seen on the web have been black, so i thought i'd post a pictire of my slots and one of you guys could tell me if the large slot is PCI-E?

I'd go for the 8600GT.

It doesn't outperform the 7600GT by much, but it does enough to warrant the little extra money.
