VisionTek 9100 128MB AGP Video Card $70 @TigerDirect

[jrenna]

I was in the market for a new video card, not wanting to spend big bucks, when I saw this deal. I was originally looking at the 64MB card for around the same price.

I wouldn't buy from tigerdirect. just a warning.

I second that, but still a good price for a entry level card.

Yep, better deal IMHO. Free shipping with Crucial (TD will charge you $9-10 so the price comes out the same), good tech support and no hassle RMA. Never bought one of their video cards but it should be a quality product. Bought lot's of their RAM.

Isn't 5ns pretty slow for vidoe ram?

I would pick the Visiontek over the Crucial card.

those looking at the crucial card should also notice that the dvi connector is dvi-d, which means there's likely no 15 pin adapter. personally i wouldn't purchase from tiger myself...

I have never had a problem with Tiger, They are almost as good as Newegg

How many of you have had recent problems with TigerDirect? I know (from experience) that they're not a reputable store, but we (including me) always bash them. Personally, I haven't purchased anything from them in the past two years or so, so I'm just wondering...

Of course, according to their six-month rating they haven't improved much.

Either you work for them, or your retarded, or just really really lucky.

There is always a new sucker somewhere, that is the only reason why Tiger Direct is still alive.
