$219 - $20 rebate = 199
or
$219 - $22 ($10% off preferred customers coupon) - $20 (rebate) = ~180 (plus tax)

Online looks like it has free shipping, but coupon is only good at B&M.

I got mine... WooT.

And dont forget best buy has the 120gb 2mb cache maxtor drives for $100, after $50 MIR.

First of all, no BB store, at least in in Northern California, has this vid card so you can only get it online. Second, the 10% deal is only for accessories and not for peripherals.

There is a $10 GC with the purchase of $50 that will work.

There are also some 10% off coupons floating around here.

The coupon i got said 10% off anything in the store except for some specialized items like "Maytag Neptunes" to name one of a few.

I just bought this card in Annapolis, MD where they had a bounty of em, and walked out paying $207, after coupon, before MIR.

i would just get a radeon 9700 non pro for 50 more

it is much much faster in terms of performance

but if are set of not buying off the web this isnt bad

paid $236 shipped for mine

DOH.
B&M didn't have it... Grrr....

CircuitCity.com has the ATI 9500 Pro for $220 - $20 MIR. The rebate expires end of March. This will allow you time to use the rebate with your MSN dollars(whenever it arrives).

For me this will translate to $220 - $20 MIR - $100 MSN Dollars = $100.

The deal is that this is B&M, for folks who don't want to wait. Also, this is the ATI manufactured retail version (almost all of the cards on pricewatch are "powered by ATI" cards).

9500 pros never could be hacked in the 1st place

idude, it can't be hacked anyway, because this is a Pro.
