amazon.com x800xt aiw agp $288AR *DEAD*

[Rhoel]

Amazon.com has the ATI All-In-Wonder X800 XT for $338 - $50 rebate [Exp 5/31] = $288 with free shipping.

So tempting even if I already have a 6800gt. Buy them all, so I dont!

Great find - it's hard to believe how the price of this card has fallen in the last few weeks. Thanks.

god its getting tempting, but I don't see an end in sight for this price dropping, and I am playing Half-Life 2 quite contently with a 9500 pro I recently got on eBay for $50. I guess its a good thing that I will be able to wait until next-get cards come out, unless this card gets below $250!

 

[Todd33]

I just ordered it. $323 shipped (#30 Amazon CC deal, free shipping) - $50 rebate = $273. I won't even use the AIW part, that's just a great deal on an XT.

When you can get a card like this it kinda makes think that building around a video card ain't a bad idea.

On the amazon.com homepage there is an instant $30 off if you sign up for thier visa card. $258 shipped. I better stop looking at this...

 

[amheck]

Come on PCI-e deals!

 

[dquan97]

very tempting!

 

[Ph33zy]

Ahhhhhhh .. I couldnt resist! 257.99 shipped to California! Hot deal for people in CA because its tax and shipping free! I also signed up for the amazon cc to get the 30 beans off...

very hot price

how does this card compare to the 6600GT. Disregard that this card has the tv tuner built in, in terms of speeds/performance, how does it compare?

 

[stag3]

how does this compare to an x800xl ? i know the x850xt will beat the x800xt tho, i dont need the aiw part either, i just wanted a new gaming card

 

[stockjock]

Yeah...what HonkeyDonk and Stag3 are asking I would like to know as well...as this is very tempting!

6600 gt doesn't touch this card.

and if you need an agp card, this >>>>> x800 xl: better value AND performance.

man i've been resisting all day, but this bastard thread has been bumped into my vision so many times i finally hopped on and snagged one. A minor upgrade from my 6800 gt, but now I'll have 2 very, very decent gaming systems

I'm with ya!!! I too just bit!! My first ATI card! Forgive me Nvidia

 

[imported_vghc]

Mine shipped!!

 

[travlen]

Holy XXXX that's hot!

I thought PCI-E cards were supposed to be cheaper than AGP!!!

I may have to stick with AGP for this build.

 

[travlen]

Is this card much faster than the X800XL???

how is the X800XL better performance? i understand it's better value since it's a lot cheaper, but spec wise, the XT has faster core and memory speeds. Wouldn't that alone make it better performance?

I think what he said agrees with your statement - the symbols he used might be a little confusing though.

 

[DangerDave]

What do you guys think the price will go to when the 50 buck rebate is over? I predict the card will just price drop 50 bucks. Maybe more, I guess AGP is either not selling very well, or ATI wants to take over the mid/kinda high range market that the 6800 Gt has taken from them.

 

[ThePiston]

price has dropped like $45 in past 4 weeks... who knows where it will end, but i know if i don't upgrade now, my AIW 9800pro won't be worth a dime soon.

 

[thegimp03]

Wow, this is extremely tempting, even with my 6800NU. Cannot....hold....baaccckkk..

AIW 800xt Review

 

[BlackPear1]

Unfortunately deal seems dead - it's now priced more than $70 higher
Edit: Plus their calculation of net price after rebate doesn't work.
