$374, not 347

My bad LoL still a good price though...

 

[Sonikku]

This is a pretty good deal. But will it fit with a Nforce 4 Ultra Epox board? I've heard it covers up some of the inputs.

 

[bdoople]

Ew... XFX.

 

[MBrown]

The price is right though.

 

[James3shin]

yeah the XFX is a instant :thumbsdown:

 

[MBrown]

why?

 

[ssvegeta1010]

XFX cards apparently have higher rates of failure (which I don't really believe), and their RMA service is a major PITA (which I do believe).

3D Fuzion
XFX :thumbsdown:

 

[MBrown]

I think 3d Fuzion is a division of BFG.

Where do you see this ? The site says it's BFG (OEM).

Its XFX, you're looking at something else.

Got it !

The first Link is the BFG 7800 GTX.

The second Link is the XFX 7800 GT.

I never looked at the second Link as I'm not really interested in a GT at $374

 

[Bona Fide]

3d Fuzion? What the hell...
XFX? No way...no way.

 

[ddogg]

XFX seems to have ironed out their problems these days but their customer service is still horrendous. pretty good deal for both cards though.

You are correct. It appears to be BFG's 1 year warrantee division...

eVGA 256-P2-N528-AX Geforce 7800GTX 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 VIVO PCI Express x16 Video Card - Retail

...while what appears to be the same card + Battlefield 2 is $529?

[Wall7486]

I believe it has something to do with the "Free" motherboard.

459 at new egg for that gtx

 

[Gogar]

I wonder if it makes a difference to buy cards from companies who do speed binning. I kind of suspect that your chances of getting a good clocking card are better when you get one from a company that has only one model of the GTX, not OC versions and stuff.
I bet all the good chips at BFG go into their OC products, and the lower bins go into the normal clocked cards, since 3D Fuzion is a division of BFG i suspect they come from lower bins too. No clue though.. i'm just speculating.. But i'd go for the MSI Lite one personally.. as MSI doesn't have an OC'ed line of cards as far as i know
