MSI 8800GT $208 @ Dell

[Geoff]

Wow, I just looked up my newegg invoice. I've had my 7800GT since 2005. It cost me $304, and it's still running strong today, but it just can't handle the new stuff so well.
I didn't realize I hadn't upgraded my GPU for 2 years, and I'm an avid gamer, so I need something that can handle new games.

I looked at mine that I bought on 11/30/2005 (must have been right after we sold our laptops, haha).

I bought a Chaintech NF4 Ultra 939 for $64, x800GTO for $175, Athlon 64 3200+ for $159, and 1GB of DDR400 for $72.

I already have that game so it would be useless. Maybe a Gift But I don't know anyone who would want it.

Me! pick me! pick me! meee!

oh sweet, hope it was like that with the XFX card to but unlikely

Same here, my estimated was on 12/13 but as ThatGuy16 said, I hope the actual shipping time happens sooner than the generated estimates...

I was going to cancel my order and get the EVGA with quake wars off newegg. They said i can't since it has been submitted to the "fullfillment" system, well for the trouble they are knocking another $50 off making it $189 after shipping

now lets hope this thing ships soon lol!

Wow, I guess complaining can get somebody far. I kinda wish I didn't cancel now, I could have saved $100! But then I wouldn't be able to use the "step-up" from EVGA.

U serious? nice move, what you do? I want to pay $189

Lol, and what exactly was "the trouble"?

 

[ThatGuy16]

oh, nothing much... just the guy before her "lied" and told me could cancel when i couldn't. But i can't complain for that price

 

[Ramodkk]

Wish they had more liars

 

[ThatGuy16]

Lets see... so far i have gotten a $200 motherboard for $99, a 8800GT for $190, a $350 monitor for $300 and a $130 PSU for $99. Oh and a $450 phone for $80

 

[Ramodkk]

a whooping $600+ saving!

And soon we'll be updating our sigs with our new 8800GT's hahaha

 

[ThatGuy16]

Oh yeah

 

[Ramodkk]

Mmm, yeah um, loving your case! LOL

 

[ThatGuy16]

oh yeah, and don't you forget it!

 

[Ramodkk]

Man this thread has lasted 150+ strong! LOL

 

[ThatGuy16]

It did, didn't it? and the deal is dead now

 

[Ramodkk]

It is? hahaha

I'll be updating my sig to with a link to a pic of inside of my comp...

*edit* LOL /\ that was random

I talked to a representative online yesterday, I ordered my MSI card on the 30th of November and he said I would receive my order in 5-7 business days. So that would be by next wednesday (the 12th).... The order status page still says my order will only be shipped by the 13th. He said they were on backorder.

 

[ThatGuy16]

Well, we will see what happens, as long as it gets here before christmas im fine. Hard to argue with $190
