It seems that the longer you wait the better the deal gets. It didnt start off that well, but ended up pretty nice.

edit2:
The deal earlier was for $59.99

edit1:
the old one was a
Radeon 32mb pci for $49.99

Geez! Today's deal is just as stupid as yesterday one.
50 bucks for Radeon PCI SDR 32 RAM, that doesn't worth it. I remembered last time CompUSA store was selling it for 30 or 40 dollars. I don't quit remembered the exact price, but I remembered that I grab a box of that. Today's deal is cold.

This is the special I get when I go to the site:
RADEON? 7500 Video Card, AGP, 64MB $59.99

 

[mattcham]

This lame card is only $40 at newegg, and the newegg version is
even a dual-head model.

What's tomorrow's deal gonna be?
A free-after-rebate item with a New Rochelle TCA rebate?

CrapUSA is suck.

Hmm. Now it's showing:

RADEON? 7500 Video Card, AGP, 64MB for $59.99

Guess it is something that'll have to be checked multiple times during the hour...

 

[riznick]

thanks for the info
I just updated the topic

 

[LawBeefaroni]

Just refreshed and RADEON? 7500 Video Card, AGP, 64MB $59.99 has dropped to $49.99

LawBeefaroni beat me to it!

 

[nataraj]

Does it have 2 video outputs (like radeon VE) ? Not a bad price ...

radeon 7500 uses sdr, not ddr ram, would slow a p4 down some, $49 now and $51 at newegg, hehe

the description at compusa says DDR ram, not SDR. the ddr version is $62 at newegg.

 

[TheMonkeyPit]

Radeon 7500 uses DDR and will not slow a P4 down...

Newegg has an OEM Radeon 7500 made by Sapphire for $62

$50 for a retail ATI Radeon 7500 64MB DDR is a good deal, IMO

 

[riznick]

just changed the topic to reflect the change.

btw: the newegg drive is oem.

 

[Pardus]

price went back up to $99.99

compusa told me you will be able to get the daily deals for 15 mins past the hour only.

oh well.

 

[TheMonkeyPit]

even though the "Deal of the Day" window does not pop up any more, the card is still listed for $49.99

 

[knightc2]

Is this a good deal? I am still using my TNT2 Ultra. Should I get this or wait till Geforce4 4200 is cheaper?

 

[riznick]

Thanks, I added the link to the top thread

ATI cards are awesome. Their only downfall is crappy drivers. I consider switching to nvidia cards just because the company realizes the importance of good clean drivers.

I'd definetly wait out and get the Geforce 4200. That will significantly outperform this Radeon 7500. They actually just lowered prices on the 4200, too. You can get a good one for $130 now:

If you can hold out, by late November I'm guessing this card will be at least $30-$40 cheaper with some sort of deal floating around.

 

[knightc2]

Well, it looks like I am waiting. I have no choice since my computer locked up and I had to reboot. Lost my shopping cart and the price is now back up to $99. Oh well.

looks dead now

Also there a thread running about the 4200 available from BB B&M for ~$100 after a $30 rebate.
