Mildly hot? - In Stock Powercolor x1950pros

[Jeeebus]

Listed as $209 on the website, but comes with a nice $10 instant discount when you view the item, so you're getting an Arctic Cooling cooling fan for the same price/cheaper than any x1950pros I've seen recently... and the bonus... it's in stock.

EDIT: guess they raised price of the card by $10.

Good find! This is probably better than the asus refined hsf design... thanks for the link. Definetly not a bad deal.

I've been waiting on the Asus one for a few days to complete my rebuild of my rig, just ran across this today. In for one.

It's much better than the ATI branded X1950Pro on da egg for $275 before rebate ($245 after). Arctic Cooling 🙂

Hmmm ........ only 12 pipes and 256MB, but I suppose it is still a nice card for $199.

You might have been misled by the Newegg specs - it's got 36 pixel pipelines like the 1900GT (see AT's review which concludes it is the "performance leader at the $200 mark"). Doesn't matter now anyway because it's OOS.

no it's not, but they raised the price by $10... 🙁
Dunno if this is a better deal than the $190 asus version. Both have upgraded coolers.

The asus version does NOT come with the crossfire piece needed if you ever choose to utilize crossfire. The powercolor also beats the asus version in most tests.

 

[acegazda]

by how much? Is that worth $20 to you?

It was shown as OOS when I posted (6 1/2 hrs. before your post) - perhaps it would have been better to say "now back in stock"?😛
And where is the Asus card in stock at $190? It's OOS at Newegg and preorder on the RTPE vendors.

Crossfire bridge

There is $10 of your difference there

The other $10 comes in the form of the silent artic cooler.

[Jeeebus]
