Uhmm this deal has been dead for some time, no one received their cards. Perhaps you could benefit from actually reading posts in the thread next time? :p
 
Had the deal gone through, they would have been new cards not used cards.
 
im not talkin about the 9700np from that site, im talkin about a 9700 from a neighbor.
 
bizzy, the 9700np ocs to 9700pro and higher with good cooling - it will rape the 5900nu even if you mod it 5950, in every single way possible. Believe it or not, I'm an nVidia fan - primarily because I was a HUGE 3dfx fanboy and nVidia bought them out, but at this time you have to look at the facts. Yes, nVidia cards will handle older games better - meaning you'll get 155 fps as opposed to 150 - big deal when your monitor refresh rate is, at most, 85Hz to begin with. Take that 9700 and don't look back - you won't regret it. You will, however, regret it when your copies of HL2 and Doom III come in and you're only getting 20 fps, with sketchy IQ's.
 
this man speak's the truth brother preach that ATI goodness lmao:D

Don't worry, you bought the right card. Your BFG card will be awsome, just wait and see. You're basically getting the performance of a $400-$500 5950 card, just for $170. There are plenty of people who have gotten the BFG 5900nu and loved the card once they got to use/see it.
(not BFG, which would be better, but just a general comparison):

You mean, as the Short-Bus-Rider referred to a 9700 OCed to a 9700p would "rape" even a 5900nu flashed to a 5950?

You need to work on paying attention a little more.
 
Its $115 vs. $170. It should be faster, its also more expensive. The 9700NP was a better deal, get over it.
