Good deal but strange bundle.

Most people buying the game already have a better card.

Compgeeks no longer has this card, but Pothead is correct that that was the one they carried. They only carry the Ti200 now, which is not the same.

Very nice deal. Debating it right now, my local Compucrap is OOS of course on the card.

What is the major difference between a G4 ti 4200 and GeForce3 Ti500? Which one should I buy?

say battlefield 1942 has a resale value of about 30 bucks....meaning 100-30 = $70 for the vid card.

anyone think the vid. card will drop in price anytime soon? or is this a really good deal?
(building a computer right now, and waiting a few weeks for the price on this vid. card to drop wont hurt, but...will it drop? ;p )

Of course it's a good deal. This card was $400 less than a year ago. Buy it and save your pennies for the best available card when Doom 3 comes out.

In my opinion this vid card sucks anyway if you are a buyer today. your better off with an 8500LE or geforce4200ti it may have life in it for owners who have it now, but I wouldnt buy it if you wanted to use it in the future

Doom 3 is going to erase the "future" of every card out there, except for the Radeon 9700. My coworker has a GeForce2 and he wants this game. After he gets this bundle for $100 and sells his current card, he will only be paying ~$45 for a GF3 TI 500. That's FAR from sucking. Far far far from sucking.
