Not the best deal on a Mx board, but pretty good for full retail box.

I was in Best Buy last week and this card was 149.99

enjoy!

Crap. I bought this card when it first came out on August 2000 for $149.

This is a good deal -- it's a good card.

Thanks for the deal, anyway.

Good luck finding one in the Dallas area... went to two stores (Plano, Frisco) and they are desperately low on anything.

Got this card back in Dec. for $5.50 during the MCI/Amazon $150 gift certificate deal. What a difference from my old I/O Magic TNT2 64. Not that the TNT2 card was bad just there is a huge difference in graphics between them. I'm very satisfied and would recommend this card to anyone.

Nice find, i'll probably buy one. Right now i have a Voodoo3 2000 16 meg card, do you think I'll see a noticeable difference for 3d games?

bet your ass you'll see an improvement. went from a p2-233 with same card as yours (v3-2000 PCI.. don't ask why i had PCI) and jumped to gF MX.. man.. its unbelievable. granted still bottlenecked with the processor and my gig rig is obviously faster, but UO:TD actually runs smoothly now. and for those of you who happen to play UO:TD I'm sure you all can appreciate that..
