DEAD - BFG 6800 Ultra Overclocked GeForce Video Card $374.25 @ Dell

[Manyakis]

Someone ordered it from dell and got a watercooled version.

Even if you get a watercooled version, can't you peel off the cooler and get a NV silencer 5 and put that on isntead?

I hope so because I dont have watercooling!

 

[Spike]

I am fairly sure you can remove it easily and put a silencer on it. Worst case, the watercooled one goes for like $599 most of the time so you could always ebay the card, get a BFG 6800GT OC for $400, overclock it to Ultra, and you have a card almost as fast for only $200 in the end

OMG W00T
Heres hoping mine is!

I am so freaking annoyed now... Here I am stuck with my 6800GT OC (that was $389 after tax and shipping) and there is an ultra for less that could have been mine... *sigh* I gotta remember NOT to look at deals on components I just bought, they always make me sad

Man you guys got a deal. I just tryed to get it and they now will not let me use the 25% coupon I have. They said only one coupon and the 15% today is a coupon. So only use one or the other. If anyone knows how to get into this deal yet e-mail me at rstiner@yahoo.removecom. I guess 25% off 559.00 is not bad just not what everyone else is getting. I need to find a $ off coupon I guess maybe they will take both of them.

very hot

 

[M1A]

I did the delf today and did not get any 25% off accessories. Darn I need this.

 

[ponyo]

I got mine today and it's the fan version. BFG 6800 Ultra OC! I knew I was getting the fan version when I ordered it because the part # on Dell's site matched BFG stock # for 6800U OC.

 

[asianmaster]

if someone could share a 25% off code with me i'd really appreciate it. I've tried that darn game 100s of times it seems Please please pleeeeeeease

rockit_scientist@hotmail.com Thanks so much

 

[Tnvolsfan]

Anyone find a hot deal like this for a PCIE card, I need one to replace the lame-o 300SE that came in my Dell system.

 

[thawolfman]

hrm ~ 419 now after the 25% coupon~

Too bad the Video Processor on 6800 series is busted... Good deal for AGP owners

 

[darkswordsman17]

To be honest, the broken video processor has little impact on anything. Sure it stinks that its not working, but I don't have any problems without it as movies and other video plays just fine.

If you're running this card in the first place you should have a CPU that can handle doing what the video processor does.

 

[drifter106]

i just found out about this delf game....gesh.....lmao
is there a "prime" time to play this....dell site says the card is selling for $500...if a person can get it for $350 it may be worth the time to "play".... my gut tells me its kind of a "cheesy" promotion....

just don't know... im being pestimistic...

 

[Gunbuster]

How do I manage to keep missing all the good video card deals! :|
