This is a really good price for a decent card. Although it is G80, $88 shipped is really really good.

My goodness, hot deal. Their reseller rating looks decent :thumbsup:

Nice first post.

 

[nefariouscaine]

dayum - i'm sooo tempted

 

[surfhick]

I've never heard of this e-tailer. They have 8800 GTS 640 and GTX for good prices also. Same brands. I want to pick one up for SLI but don't know if different brands will work together. I have a reference XFX 8800 GTX. I would rather get two 9800s than spend $500 for a second older generation card.

 

[cubeless]

different brands should be ok...

man this is tempting... i have a 320 and could sli these... for 1680 gaming the 320 seems fine... unlike my sli'd 8600's... would think that sli'd 320's should be fine for 1680 res... but would it be better sell the 320 (now for only $80 ;( ) and then buy a gt for 160... decisions...

 

[surfhick]

Thancks. I think I'm going to try it. I've wanted to SLI for awhile now. I have everthing I need except the 2nd card. The only thing thats stopped me is that I could get a better performing card for less money.

320 sli

finally found a great test for the cards...

i think i'm going to go for it too... hopefully they oc ok... i'll replace a 7950 in one box with the new 320 for a while then sli them up... looks like 320 is plenty mem for 1680 res... the test really shows what i've found with the sli'd 8600gts's - they just don't have enuf vid mem to go over 1440...

Welcome to Anandtech. This is the price in the OP plus the $8 shipping.

 

[cubeless]

urp...

 

[onelivestarfish]

I have actually bought from them before. I purchased 2 8800GTs and received them quickly. They were easy to reach and offered good service. I think that they cater more to industry with CAD applications, but they are offering these cards at a steal of a price!

I agree. But for those with 2 GPU slots, SLI'd GTS 320s for ~ $170ish should outperform the GTX for $50 less. The $80 + shipping price is ridiculously cheap and it's still a great card.

 

[TurtleCrusher]

hott deal for sure.

WARNING !!! WARNING !!!

These cards have 0 warranty in the U.S.A. !!!! Zip. Zilch. Nada.

If you buy this card, you are on your own if it dies outside of the e-tailers return period.

Personally, I'd rather pay $20 more and get a useable warranty than get a card that has no warranty support in my country.

Nice catch D&C. It appears you are correct:

"...Such limited manufacturer warranty is valid only for end customers domiciled within the European Union, in Switzerland, Iceland or Norway..."

where did you find the thing about europe? what i found is that with registering the card within 14 days with Zotac, you get 5 years of warranty, however if in China, it is only 3 years. I couldnt find anything about Europe on Zotac's website. It does come with a 30 day warranty from FXvideocards

Newegg says its 2 years parts and labor for this exact card through the manufacturer.

ZOTAC Warranty Registration


This is what comes up:



Warranty Registration
?Dear valued customer,

the Warranty Registration is not available for your region in the moment.

Please check our Press Releases .



So it looks like warranty will not apply.

 

[TurtleCrusher]

I still bought it.

I like taking my chances!

 

[cubeless]

got to be careful comparing vendors... who or where they got the cards affects the warranty...

 

[zettler]

Not to be rude but I have seen this deal on three forums this afternoon ALL made by brand new members...

Has any Senior members dealt with this vendor????
