I rencently purchased a BFG Geforce GT OC Card for $399. Tax free with free 2 day shipping at The exact link.

This is a Perfect 16 pipe line, 256mb GDDR3 R370core card. This is selling for at lease 50 to 60 dollors less then anyother site out there and is a rare find for pretty much the second or 3'd best card out there ( Considering price). Purchased 11/1 received on 11/3 great card, in box, LIFETIME WARRENTY NO QUESTIONS ASKED! No card like it on the market.

I know if you look at chumbos reveives at some sites it might seem kinda iffy, but there was a mistake a while back where about 400 people purchased a underpriced item, so it got 400 negitives revieves just from that, and not alot of reveives from people in the first place. However its a good site and im Very happy and impressed with Prices and Service.

R370 core huh? Chumbo is BFG's "official" online outlet for refurbs and the like, but the price is hardly magical. I got my BFG 6800GT at Best Buy in late August for ...OMG!!! $399. Most BBs should have stock by now, but it's always nice to dodge sales tax.

Nice card... Nothing too special about that deal though, I got an eVGA 6800GT back in July for $409 w/ FarCry shipped from Newegg.

LOL Chumbo sent me an email about this too, I was most bewildered as I had requested notice over two months ago.

I bought a "Genuine XFX 16 pipe 6800GT" back then for $380 from buyxtremegear.

This is pretty useless info Vaya, 6800GTs are plentiful, and the BFG one isn't much different than any other.

Yeah, I got the same card for the same price from Best Buy months ago. Granted I had to pay tax, but there is still nothing exciting about this "deal."

I almost emailed Chumbo a "WTF? Who cares anymore?" but figured "Why bother, they're just doing their job and I'm sure the notices are automated.

In 2008 I'll probably get my notice for the 6800U I wanted to buy in July.

I saw a BFG 6800 GT OC for $349 shipped a while ago, didn't buy one though since I was holding out for an X800 Pro ViVo. Probably should have seeing that I still don't have a new vid card lol...

Rollo's right...BFG isn't really anything special. I'd actually rank them below cards like the Leadtek, eVGA, and Gainward cards simply because of their crappy new cooling systems. The old BFG's had much better heatsinks. And a 20MHz overclock isn't anything to rant and rave about seeing how people are getting much higher overclocks by themselves. The only reason to care about the 20MHz OC is if you don't plan on overclocking yourself. *edit* the picture on the website shows the older style cooling system on the card...which did you recieve??

And BTW...this should be in the hot deals forum, not on the video cards forum...

Just my 2 cents
