Socal frys will have x850xt PCI-e for $199 AR friday

[Corporate Thug]

$379 - 180 MIR = $199

 

[Ghettocowboy]

$180 MIR?? thats one huge rebate, must be a multiple rebates

 

[NaiMan]

don't mean to knock on this deal, but wouldn't this be a better deal?

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814102505

$219 - $20MIR = $199

better as in, $160 lower MIR.

 

[imported_dani]

Yeah, $199 for the X850XT is becoming common. Can you imagine the tax on that pre rebate price?! You're best off finding a retailer that doesn't charge you tax at $199. Hell, free shipping too.............

 

[Triggerhappy007]

Too big of a rebate.

Where did you get that info from?

you're right. sorry. bad deal

 

[ShadoWing]

oy vey...a 180 dollar MIR, that's killer

 

[Eeezee]

If I didn't already have the x800XL I'd totally hit up the Newegg deal.

Newegg deal is MUCH better. Not only does it have a lower rebate, but there's a lot less tax (so a lower price in the end).

You can view the whole ad in this zip file.

 

[rizorith]

That link is dead. Do you know anywhere else that has the socal fry's ad? It seems to be posted once in a while but otherwise I can't find it online anywhere.

 

[compcons]

Um, Check the date?

EH

WTF? "X850XT - $174"

I can't believe I just bought an X800GTO2 with the intention of unlocking those extra pipes...WHY did Newegg have to drop their prices NOW? My card hasn't even arrived yet and I feel like I paid too much

 

[probzy]

nice post.

Dude, the X850XT has been dirt cheap for at least a month.

A few weeks ago it could be had for $150, no fuss or muss with rebates.

I've been out of the loop...I just couldn't bring myself to spend $300 on a video card, so...

 

[Sonikku]

Oh, I understand completely where you come from. I could not bring myself to spend more then $300 for a video card either. Prices and performance get shaken up too much in the ultra high end of cards too often, losing value at a huge rate. But that's a discussion for another topic.

 

[hansmuff]

jagec,

Did you buy for AGP or PCI-Express? Because the AGP prices are still way up, where PCI-Express is way low.

 

[6shiw1]

When did the x850xt go for $150 WITHOUT MIR? CUSA had it for $150 after MIR quite a few times I remember.
