too much shipping. good deal though.

 

[rimshaker]

Yea, shipping is almost 20% of the product price, too much. But great price on the card itself. Just wait a few more months and retail Ti200 cards will be around that price eventually.

 

[mingwong]

looks pretty good.. anymore comments?

 

[nychris86]

It's what I have in my shopping cart for my new computer, purchasing next week when I have the money. That deal has been up for about 3 weeks now.

Looks fine from what I can tell.

 

[Night201]

Yeah, shipping charge sucks. But still a pretty good deal I think. I leave about 30 minutes from them and they said that I couldn't pick one up. I wanted to tell them to just through the card into a priorty mail box and ship it via USPS for $3.50. Whatever though, I still ordered one. It'll be a decent upgrade for my Geforce2 MX400 32MB AGP card. It'll be more than twice as fast, so I'm looking forward to it.

is this the same card that Bestbuy sell it for 149.99 - 50 MIR a couple months ago?

 

[jolottashakn]

Yes, this is the same as at BB for net $100 AR, But it was the day after Thanksgiving sale.

Actually they did have it for $179-30IR-30(???)MIR two weeks ago.

I finally bought it, although I've been too busy surfing for Hot Deals to install it !!

I think the MIR is valid til month end .

 

[FSUpaintball]

Actually, the card was $200 at BB during that time. It had a $50 mail in, and a $50 instant I think

Great card. Especially for the price.

 

[TechDreamer]

Does this one have a fan? The one I got at Fry's has no fan and was a white box MSI.

 

[haktmal]

$15 shipping is ridiculous.

 

[GagHalfrunt]

It's just a typical scam for getting a good listing on some price searches. Check PriceWatch and you'll find that a lot of places have the same card delivered for $90-$100. It's just that some list the price honestly as $90 with $5 shipping and some try blatant lying by marking it $80 and screwing you on the shipping. It's not a great deal, it's just a moderate price from a company that's manipulating the total cost so that it looks like a great deal.

 

[Night201]

Good point on the fan. I looked and it didn't mention anything about one. I cancelled my order.

 

[FPSguy]

Here is a retail Ti200 at the same store for $1 more (after a $30 rebate).

 

[unclebud]

i disagree. it's not a bad deal. find a reputable dealer selling this oem card for cheaper with shipping
and that rebate after-thanksgiving was kind of bogus--new rochelle ny rebate houses are awful people cheaters
before i buy something now with a rebate, i check to see if it's going to them. if so, it goes back on the shelf.

 

[MisterE]

Comp-U-Plus has ALWAYS been a rip-off for shipping. They used to even charge a "handling fee" on top of the outrageous shipping costs.

E.

 

[Drifter]

What about shipping to Canada?

 

[serialb]

I hate the cheap price gimmick cr@p from retailers. :|

 

[RadioactiveMagpies]

Pricewatch is displaying the lowest price based on item + shipping now.

 

[pillage2001]

Even at 95 shipped. This card is a good buy. I've got one and it's one of the best purchase I've made. I boguht it last year from BB.

It has a fan on it and RAMsinks are included. Alot of people got this same card and o/c it pass Ti500 speed. For 95 shipped, I would personally buy it.

 

[justdad]

looks good even with the high cost of shipping.

 

[rimshaker]

The Visiontek Ti200 card has both a hsf for the gpu, and ramsinks. It's cooled quite well for a stock product.

yeah, but pricewatch is still crammed full of POS merchants, half of whom are the same people with different names... nasty

 

[popeye44]

Yea but do a search for MSI geforce 4400.. newegg comes out as the lowest price with 226 or 229 and that beats the hell out of a gainward 4200 for the same price "or close enough to same price"
