My buddy just got his new Visiotek 3850 512mb yesterday he paid $179.99 for it, I somehow I missed the delivery dates for this 9600gt that was released yesterday. What do you guys think it would be worth it to return the card and get an 9600gt instead seeing as they are the same price. The performance is higher on for the 9600 GT as per the HARD review,

The lcd monitor my buddy is using is a 19" and will be gaming @ 1280x1024.

Thnx guys!
 
If it's not that much trouble/hassle and does not cost anything to return the card then yeah I feel it is worth it. When you do receive the 9600GT after, you will be glad you did do the exhange. Don't wait too long on this decision though.
 
I personally have not ordered anything from the egg as I live in Canada. Is there a re-stocking fee? Also I am assuming that he would have to pay for shipping both ways.
 
Not sure, but does not hurt to find out. Then, you will know for sure whether it is worth it.
 
If you talk to the Newegg people, you can usually get the restocking fee waived if you state clearly that you'll be buying the replacement from them. You'll still have to pay shipping back on the RMA.
 
boooo ok guys thnx for the info. He will be gaming for the forseeable future on that 19" lcd @ 1280x1024 so that card should give him decent performance. His hard budget was $500for the full build, and I got it done including that card for $498 with out rebates so I guess he wont have too much to complain about. :D
