Sapphire X1950 Pro w/ Rainbow Six Vegas

Not a bad deal, $15 more at newegg. ZZF reseller ratings have dropped a lot lately, so, in my experience, don't expect this to ship anytime soon.

Well the thing that makes this a good deal is the fact that it comes with Rainbow Six: Vegas, which seems to go for like $40 by itself, so you have to take that into consideration. If you planned on buying Vegas and a new video card anyway, then if you think of it like that you're getting this X1950 Pro for ~$110.

Also, from what I can tell from newegg's listing of what looks like this card, it is HDCP compliant.

Rainbow Six Vegas has an unfinished multiplayer with a total lack of admin controls or stability (both host and client). Read the UbiSoft RSV PC forums and you'll see that people have been wanting a patch for the past month and a half but hasn't gotten one yet. Not worth paying an extra bit of cash if you can get another card with same specs without R6V for cheaper.
 
I agree that R6V sounds too buggy to bother with, but I think that's still the best price for that card even without the free game.

Who cares? The game's free and they'll eventually make a patch, besides it's still a great deal.
 
I hemmed and hawed about this deal all weekend but I finally bit on it now.

This will be just perfect for my wife's machine.

 
I don't need this card, but I want to buy it just to compare image quality with the g71 in the games I play. Is that wrong? Plus it's blue and it would match my motherboard 😱

If you go to the Ubi forums, it certainly seems like they AREN'T making one...
