Albatron Ti4280 -- is there a better card for $150?

[Ralidan]

Looking at new video cards, and right after i posed my 8500LE vs. 9000P thread, I deceided i wanted a bigger upgrade, so... I have heard good things about the Albatron Ti4280 and its about $150 at Newegg, any better suggestions? Any of the FX cards in that range or cheaper going to compare mind you 4x AGP. And.. does anyone have a link to benchmarks of this card?? Thanks everyone!

9500 pro if you can find one @ Best Buy or if you can get a 9600 pro w/ the 2.8ns memory and OC the $hit out of it

I would _not_ pay $150 for a GF4 at this time. Either pony up an extra $20 for an ATi 9600 Pro, or buy the $105 Albatron at GameVE, or find a $100 GF4 elsewhere.

Yes!!

FS/FT GF4 126 MB for $85 to 100 I have seen many $150 for GF4 is WAY TOO MUCH!

I'd go 9500-9600

another vote for 9500 pro, check your local best buy. you might be able to grab one for $149.

Another vote for what Pete said.

A Sapphire 9600pro with (3.3ns memory) can be found for $150.

Where, Blast?

1st listing on pricewatch for Sapphire 9600pro ?


str8buy.com ???$149 + $3 shipping.


ADD: You might phone these guys and see who makes their 9600pro ?

gogocity

The Sapphire 9600pro OEM/Bulk cards might be available locally where you live.

Thanks everyone.. i may just have to pick one of those up sometime soon

Thanks for the help Blast.

Yeah.. I think I'm just asking for too much, at the moment. I want a Sapphire/ATI-built, non-EZ/Lite, 9600Pro from a solid reseller (8.5+ at ResellerRatings) for ~$150. Doesn't look like anything meets all those requirements.

Having the same trouble trying to find a non-powercolor 9700 non-pro from a reputable dealer for ~$200. Oh well, I'm always too tight with my dough.
