If I didn't already have the 2GB version of this card I'd definitely pick one up for this price. I really have no idea why the PNY cards are frequently the cheapest option available - the cooler is comparable to other brands and it has better stock overclocking than most cards (key difference being that its stock memory frequency is 7 GHz effective versus 6 GHz effective for pretty much every other card I'd looked at.) The only 'downside' is that the warranty is only one year if you don't register, but if you do register you get a non-transferable limited lifetime warranty.
