i understand the risk of getting a refurb

which one is the best value and gets the most bang for its buck

are there any other card you guys would recomend ?

thanks
 
i would still like to know what is the difference between the 2 refurb cards
 
Look like identical cards, check what the warrenty are on the referb cards just to make sure if you do dicide to buy one you are protected. Oh make sure who is giving that warrenty too, anyone other then ATi don't get em.
