$179.99 MSI GeForce GTX 260 896MBs OC

Your final price was right, but the bolded price should be $249.99: $249.99 - $30 IR - $40 MIR = $179.99 Not really. I just got in on a EVGA 260 for $170 after MIR. I prefer EVGA and you can download a full version of Far Cry 2 with registration. On top of that, I did the Live Cashback...

eVGA GeForce GTX 260 $170 AR + free Farcry 2

Ok. It doesn't say it on Newegg's site where it does for some of the other 260's. I see that's right from EVGA though. Thanks!

eVGA GeForce GTX 260 $170 AR + free Farcry 2

I was going to pull the trigger on it, but it looks like they pulled Farcry 2 off the deal now. Meh. I'll wait until BF.

eVGA GeForce GTX 260 $170 AR + free Farcry 2

So how do people rate this deal? I'm looking to build a new rig and I was specifically thinking some variation of a EVGA 260. Will there be something better on BF or is this likely as good as it's going to get for something this specific?

[DEAD]Walmart In-Store Specials - 11/8/08 only-YMMV

Our local Walmart in Wisconsin sold the laptops for $399. A friend of mine picked one up. He said the line thinned out when the price was announced. We had asked ahead of time and knew about the price. On the plus side for those of you who got them for $298, you managed to buy them for less...

*DEAD* 8800GTs BACK IN-STOCK and $208 (MSI) and $235 (XFX) at Dell!

Be a little careful with the cancellations guys and girls. I called Dell twice in the last half hour to cancel my order. The first time the person I spoke to started asking me for things that he shouldn't have to ask for. These things included my Dell Preferred account number (could maybe see...

It's $200 right now at Toolking.com (which is a pretty decent place to buy name brand tools).

You're being sold last year's performance, but at half the price.

DEAD!!! MSI GeForce 8800GT 512M PCIe for $207.99 from Dell - FREE shipping - *but Dell NEVER ships it..delay..delay...*

I got the email saying mine was delayed until 12/17 too. I think it's time to give Dell a call to see if I can get the shipping bumped to next day. Also, I'm feeling better and better about breaking down and ordering a EVGA 8800GT from NewEgg. You know... the one that's actually in my...

I caved

I did something similar on Wednesday. The differences are that I didn't cancel with Dell and I went with overnight shipping. I just got sick of waiting. As of Wednesday, I had a pile of upgrade parts from Black Friday cluttering up the home office. Now I have a 8800GT in my main rig. The...

I think there were two replies to this topic when I ordered my card from Dell on 11/24. I should be one of the early people in on the deal. Like others, my estimated ship date still shows 12/10. I did get sick of waiting for a card though, and finally had a EVGA superclocked 8800GT...

Nvidia Provides More Details on 8800GT 256MB

It's still there and in stock as of about a minute ago. It appears that there is something messed up in the search for that card for some users (maybe depends on which server they hit or something?).

Make sure the card is fully seated. Some motherboard/case/card combos make the cards seat poorly.

What I'm really asking about is a clarification on the statement about XP 32-bit really only using 2G.
