Best card for $200?

[btbam]

My gf said she'd buy me a new vid card, but she wants to stay in the 200.00 price range..

Any suggestions?

6600GT seems like an awful nice card in that range....

na dont make the poor girl spend another 50 bucks on you. youll be fine with a 6600gt its a nice card.

i want to be playing Cs:source and maybe a lil doom 3

Offer to contribute $50 and get teh BFG 6800nu, only $250 from Outpost.

The Outpost BFG card is a 'Call for Availability'. I called on Friday and they said they were getting a restock truck today, so if you want it, you should call no later than Wednesday. Great deal on that card, but if it isnt available there, get a 6600GT and enjoy that.

why dont you guys split on a card??? Contribute some money to the cause dude as you can get quite a nice card for only 50-100 out of your pocket

i wouldnt buy from a guy on this forum. when they sell something the most likely reason is that they overclocked the crap out of it and werent happy with the cards potential 😛

6600GT, the X700 AGP probably won't be out in time.

Isn't there a sale at CompUSA for a 6800NU for $200? (After rebate of course)

No. CompUSA only supplies PNY cards, and the BFG 6800OC at Best Buy is 300 bucks.

 

[Mrvile]

Shopped around, the cheapest 6800 of any kind I could find was the Apollo 6800LE for 258 at GameVE, and the cheapest BFG 6800OC I could find was 269 at Maincomp.com

 

[WT]

BFG.com is selling their cards for $300 with a $40 rebate for sending them after purchase ANY working video card. If the card sent in is a BFG/Asylum they will rebate you $60. Its a good bit more to pay, but I know I can get a BFG 6800OC even after the usual online stock has dried up.

Lifetime warranty and a card slightly faster than a stock 6800 .... me likey !
