Thinking x800xl

[Superfly3176]

Okay so I just got money for graduation and I am getting a double paycheck this week. Yay for paid vacation, boo for having to wait an extra week to get it. I already have 2 potential local buyers for the 9800pro.

So anyway I'm trying to save as much money as possible, gas is expensive, but I want that extra power. So I came across an x800xl agp on pricegrabber. Its from aplusmall storefronts. I assume that pricegrabber owns it.

Does anyone have any experience with the company. The reviews are good for it so I'm tempted to buy. I was also thinking 6800gt but I think when games that use PS3 fully come out I'll be ready for a new PC so I want the fastest card for the money now.

Avoid the bottom feeders.

The $277 pricetags from places such as thenerds.net are not worth it.

Those bottom feeders seem to be wannabes or possibly clones of BZBOYZ.com.

My 2c: Check the hotdeals forum for some sweet deals on all in wonder X800XT's that will be in your price range (high $200's). There seem to be pretty constant rebates on this card, and it would be better than the XL in all respects.

I jumped on the x850xt that they had the -$100 on. I didn't want to spend that much but I couldnt resist the BBA x850xt retail for 350. I don't really like dealing with rebates.
