Gainward GT worth $425??

Only thing that I have heard about them is that they were advertising that the GTs were shipping with Ultra speed RAM and people that have taken off the HSF have noticed slower memory.

Other than that it should be a good deal. Golden Samples usually hold their value pretty well.
 
Just for fun… :p

If you’re an enthusiast and you’ve got the money, then get it. Value is irrelevant because you’ll spend another $400.00+ in 6 months when something faster comes along.

If you’re an enthusiast and you don’t have the money, get it anyhow. What’s another $400.00 on your jacked-up credit card.

Remember when $90 a share for Microsoft was considered a value for tech stocks? Some will argue that $400.00 + for a single computer component is a value, too. You can’t talk logic to computer junkies.
 
i heard people complaining that they bought the gainward 6800gt and it came with the stock nvidia heatsink and 2.0ns ram instead of 1.6
 
The 1.6ns was a typo and I believe all GT cards ship with 2.0ns. The heatsink issue I have no clue about. I ordered one through zipzoom today I'll let you know if I ever get it ;)
