    If I choose to have MS send the cash back to my PayPal account, will it go through a personal account? PayPal deducts a certain percentage for premier and business accounts.

    Connect3D Radeon X1800GTO

    This card overclocks decently by around 50-60 mhz at default voltage, but will reach 600 by upping the voltage slightly.

    Connect3D Radeon X1800GTO

    From doing a bit of googling, the connect3D X1800GTO indeed seems like a 16 pipeline enabled part, so no unlocking/flashing is needed, in which case would be a HOT deal.

    Connect3D Radeon X1800GTO

    The description says this is a 16 pipelines part, a GTO's supposed to have 12. Is this a typo? In this case, if it is indeed 16 pipes, this would be the exact same card as a X1800XL.

    DFI Lanparty UT nF4 mobo $59.99

    The mod could probably be easily undone with a little rubbing alcohol assuming it is related to the pencil method, although would be unethical.

    DFI Lanparty UT nF4 mobo $59.99

    True, but it's very much a hassle just to ship it back and forth. That's the real reason I'm hesitant. But I suppose for $60, I can't complain much. BTW, anyone know what the difference is between this Lanparty and some of the other models?

    WARM: Refurb Leadtek 6800GT $180 PCIe $178 AGP

    The GS is avaiable for $164 AR, and for performance on par or better than GT. I would say the GS is normally a better deal. The GT is usually 200+ so it has higher resale value.

    WARM: Refurb Leadtek 6800GT $180 PCIe $178 AGP

    I agree that it is a chance to go as high as 530 on a GS, but that's what OCing is. With proper cooling, the 110nm of the GS could hit 530 very frequently. If anything, these two can be said to be head to head OC wise. "Not nearly as much" is a bit inaccurate as the NV42 core will go to great...

    WARM: Refurb Leadtek 6800GT $180 PCIe $178 AGP

    It's actually not rare at all. The GS would hit 530 as "easily" as a GT would hit 450. Both would require 3rd party cooling solutions for that matter. However, the GS features 1.6 ns memory found on the Ultra as opposed to the 2.0 ns memory on the GTs. The 1.6 ns memory could easily hit the 1200...

    WARM: Refurb Leadtek 6800GT $180 PCIe $178 AGP

    The 6800GT would wipe the floor with the 9800Pro any day of the week. It's about 50-100% faster.

    WARM: Refurb Leadtek 6800GT $180 PCIe $178 AGP

    The GS is actually the best overclocker of the three, talking about the PCI-E version ofcourse.

    Hot or Not

    The X850 XT is supposed to compete with the 6800 Ultra. I'd say it's a bit more powerful than the 6800GT, especially in D3D games.

    The only time when a building can fall at the speed of gravity is when it meets no resistance. A "real" pancake effect would be one floor collapsing onto the one below, not the entire buulding dropping dead. And I assure you, things do fall sideways, albeit they do end up falling down. There are...

    Definately, so such bs. The store I went to earlier, in like August 20s said they would honor it but only with install. I go to the same store today, and the manager lady (very hot might I add) gave no troubles and even said they had to give out like 45 of them, and everyone was using the...

    What you really have to do when they refuse is wip out your cell, dial up CSR, and have the BB CSR person talk to the sales person/manager at the store. They'll be speechless ;)

    KByte 512MB PC2700 SODIMM Free AC @ BB

    So do you have to talk them into overriding the prices manually or something to get the SD cards? I thought that if it didn't ring, it was no deal, and the sales person was really nice about it.

    Did the tech support people actually confirm that this can be used on memory cards? Whenever I try to pick one of those up, they always say that it's only for computer memory, and I have to backup to counter that. And also, is there a link to the $14.5 installation? Just in case. Thanx. PS...

    It seems like different stores come up with different stories and results. The store I went to today said that the RAM can be free but installation is another 30 bucks, and I can just take it home and pay for the installation. While the other store flat out refused.
