BFG 6800gt OC PCI Express 475.00

Chumbo does have some good prices on the 6800GT PCI-E cards, but you'll likely not find it in stock again for months. Considering the rarity of these cards, I think this is a about as good of a deal as you're going to get right now for these cards.
 
chumbo doesn't even have the BFG 6800 PCI-Express cards on their website anymore. The linked deal above is for an AGP 6800GT...

It may be hard to say that the price makes this a hot deal, but the availability alone makes it at least warm for those that really want these cards...
 
It is a good price... being that they have it in stock. $75.00 over MSRP is the best I can find. Sad as it is.

Also, keep in mind, EVGA recently stated that they are considering raising their MSRP to $499.99 as it's costlier to make PCI-E then AGP... which of course we know it isnt.

However, if the brand names increase the MSRP To $499.99 then $475 will seem like a deal. Plus, if the MSRP goes up, you can expect the surcharge will to. Say $550 or so.

All this comes from a shortage that will most likely last 4 or 5 more months.

 
All of the PCI express cards I found on pricewatch start around 475.00 and the BFG is being listed around 600.00....
 
Definetly a hot item for availability. Don't forget people this is OC'd with a warranty. Albeit it isn't that much of an o/c, they also usually have high quality cores that will allow for a nice o/c if you want to go for it.
 
Wow I don't feel so bad now got 2 6800 Gt's PCI's to my door for $924.00 next day air got them last friday!
Not waiting finnally paid off for me,I always wait for prices to come down this time I pulled the trigger! 😀

Mh....I got two BFG 6800 GT OC's PCI-E with a BFG 550W PSU and two copies of Farcry shipped to me for 864.99.

Where did you read this information saying where EVGA is considering raising the MSRP?
 
In a few months these PCIe cards will be everywhere and, like always, we will be kicking ourselves for paying so much.
 
But the ones that didn't get it will be 🙂
However the ones that don't have PCI-E mobos will be 😎 or :frown:

If I had enough $ to buy 2 6800 GT PCIe I would probably have enough $ to get a subaru STI. 😀
