I think about a month ago, Fry's had an EVGA 7900GS for $239.99 - $50 instant rebate = $189.99 - $70 mail in rebate = $119.99

But its really just an overclocked 7800GT

Anyways...

Anything else in the $120 range that's good before I pull the trigger on this?

if your getting a 7800GT for $120 then no thats a good deal and a nice upgrade. Is it used? If you jump to $150 or so I've seen X1800XT 512mbs for that, that would beat out the 7800GT and 7900GS(easily).

I went ahead and ordered it from newegg, it's 'requalified', which I guess is a tested return card. Since I was also wanting video-in, it was impossible for me to beat @ that price. I'm not sure if they have any more left. Search video<PCIe<Nvidia 7 Series<7800GT, and you'll see them if they are still there.
