Black Friday Graphics Card Deals
« on: November 20, 2006, 10:07:00 AM »

My ati radeon 9800 pro got shot yesterday and begged my friend to lend me his video card.  Unfortunately, most video cards nowadays are pcie so if you want most bang for your buck, you probably have to change your motherboard and stuff like that.  Besides, most of the sale items that I have seen are hard drives, wireless stuff, and memory cards.

Perhaps you can wait until next Monday (cyber monday) when all the online stores will have their sales.

Get a good nVidia card. From that spreadsheet above the PNY 7900 looks good, if you can afford it. If not, get the 6600.

For me, I would get a cheap card now, and wait for a DirectX 10 card.
