Seems like a good deal for those of us looking for a budget PCI-E card.

Same card @ newegg to see what's included: http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=14-127-142&depa=0

They're not too far from me and the total is pretty high with shipping ($93.21 + $8.48 shipping + $7.40 tax). I'd definitely buy one for $100, so i'll call in a walk-in order.

Tax seems to apply to CA residents. Still, $109 is pretty good, not sure if $7.40 is worth the price of gas, unless you are really close.

About 20 minutes away... no waiting is a bonus in addition to the shipping savings. They don't seem to answer their phones, so I might not bother with it. :|

Anyone have one of these? I just got one one NewEgg after reading up on benchmarks here. Seemed like a good compromise of power vs money. I'll be installing it tonight. Seems to have respectable scores in HL2.

Eh, i'll probably skip the x600XT then from those benchmarks.

I already have an unlocked (8 pipelines) 6200 @ 550MHz core and 700MHz 128-bit memory. It was a refurb from newegg, but came complete in the retail box with all accessories (manual, CD, svid cable, hdtv cable, dvi->vga adapter) for $85 shipped.
