...from Best Buy on clearance for 83.99. Not a bad price at all. I was surprised. I guess they will be competitive with online retailers when they want to get rid of product :) Star Trek Online here I come!!!!

Yeah so far it's running everything pretty well! Playing Star Trek Online at medium settings at 1920x1080 res. I can turn things up to high but i get slow downs and some slight stuttering during periods of increased movement. It's very playable however it annoys the crap out of me!

Wish I could have gotten into that beta. I don't think it will necessarily be great, but I am so bored of Conan. >.<

Yes, I got one too, in Minneapolis, MN. Very wierd, since a HD 4670 I have been watching has been 140.00 for a long time without going on sale at all. Even 4650's and 9400 GTs are more expensive than this card. Sometimes the closeout price even varies from store to store. Normally Best Buy's graphics cards are terribly overpriced, but sometimes one can find good deals. I saw a 4850 for 100.00 also, but my power supply is a bit weak for that card, so I got the low power 9800GT. So far I am pleased with it.
