Gf3 normal versus ati 8500

[Garra]

Forget about ti200 or ti500, which is faster form games Geforce 3 (normal) or ati 8500 retail.

I believe the Geforce 3 Normal and Radeon 8500 Retail perform about the same, and cost about the same. I'd then opt for the Radeon 8500 because of the added features. Superb 2D, DVD Playback, and built in Dual monitor / TV Out.

Dell has Retail 8500 for $217 shipped.

Do you mean dell.com?
I have never understood how to navigate into that site

Hehe.. you go to Dell.com Click on the Home/Home User link.. then click on Software/Peripherals Tab.. you will see a search box. Type in Radeon 8500. You will see it for $268.

You then add that to your cart. Then add coupons to your cart. I can't post ocupons here.. but you can go to www.gotapex.com and they have coupons there. There's a 10% and a $25 off coupon.

But that's how Dell works.. free shipping too. They have different deals every week.

it seem to be out of stock pal, how much am i going to wait if i backorder it?

Damn =\ I personally have no idea how long those wait time lasts. They vary since Dell is such a large market, sometimes it'll be in the next day, sometimes not till the end of the month. Hard to say =\ you could call and ask them if you want.
