Fry's Asylum 128 MB DDR Geforce4 Ti4200 AGP $77.99 AR

[spacejamz]

Fry's (Dallas) has this card for 117.99 - 40 rebate = $77.99

VGA, S-video and DVI out...

4x AGP


This is B&M only...Outpost.com is 159.99 with 40.00 rebate for $119.99...

Rebate goes to BFG Asylum in NY...

Deal also confirmed for San Diego/San Marcos Fry's.

However, I believe this is the slower 444MHz memory version.

Argh... In LA Fry's ad, it's advertised in sunday's paper as $129.99 - $40 rebate = $89.99.

Just got back from Fry's with the aforementioned card for $90+tax after rebates. Although the box says 4x AGP, when I opened the box, the sticker on the card says it's an 8x AGP card with a corresponding model number indicating 8x AGP. I installed the card using the detonator drivers from Nvidia's site and it installs as "NVIDIA GeForce4 Ti 4200 with AGP8X". I am happy with my purchase

Edit: YMMV

What's the big deal between 4x and 8x AGP? Isn't it just marketing hype about theoretical bandwidth? I don't know if I've ever heard of transfer rates even exceeding 2x AGP limits. Kinda like UDMA 66... why do people get worked up over whether something is ATA 100 or ATA133 if hardly any drives exist which even hit 66 MB/sec?

lol I don't even think my motherboard supports 8x AGP. But I guess it's the "biggest bang for the buck" thing for me.

It's a big deal with 4200's, because the 128MB 4200 (the original card, AGP 4x max) has 444MHz memory, while the 128MB 4200-8x has 512MHz memory--no small upgrade.

 

[sleepdragon]

Not really, most Ti4200 regardless 64mb or 128mb ; agp4x or agp8x uses -4ns ram chips.
So even though the agp4x 128mb model is clocked at only 444mhz ddr,
you should have no problem getting it to run at around 550MHz or a bit higher...

 

[weepul]

wow. how does this compare to abit siluro gf4 ti4200? they're about the same price, but the siluro doesn't involve a rebate.

damn it when are they gonna open a Fry's in South Florida!!

 

[bbqweed]

Never...Michael Fry is keeping his operations as a west coast store. Trust me...with Fry's ...eerything is open box/returned...they just shrink wrap their stuff. And if you ever need to return stuff....oh man!!! What a freakin hassle.

Not to mention the door Nazi-s who check your receipt 30 seconds after the see you have just left the cash register....hahahha

After checking last night, the card was actually running at 513MHz...

Card described above was not the card in the box...definitely sweet!!!

hope the rebate goes well...

Last time I checked Austin and Dallas weren't on the west coast.
