PNY GeForce 7900 GT (price jumped to $246 w/$40MIR, shipped) 256MB GDDR3 PCI-E ( Dual DVI TV-Out )

Yes but sadly according to PNY -> Lifetime is defined as the lifetime of the product on the market. Outdated technology is not covered by lifetime warranty if the item is no longer available on the common market as a new product. Still a good deal OP!
