who makes 9800XT's for Dell?

[mekler]

I'm thinking of buying an 9800XT from a buddy of mine, he pulled it from a dell system. Can anyone tell me who makes cards for Dell? Here's a pic

i think they are BBA

All used to be. It was easy to tell before because the BBA part numbers were on the cards. The part number 102A1880410 seems to be a BBA part number.

edit: see the BBA pic here: http://www.gamepc.com/labs/view_content.asp?id=9800xt&page=2

that's about the going price on ebay.

 

[legcramp]

well.. for 250... it's a good price.. but tp let u knoe.. there are faster cards out there that sell for around the same price and performs quite a bit better...but 250 is a nice price i sold mines for 350 a few months back hehe

 

[mekler]

what would you all recommend for 250?

 

[kropperz890]

6800nu, a 6800le, or a 6600gt, if you can't find the latter two for that price range. the 6800nu/le's can have pipelines unlocked, and then you'll be really happy.

well i think the 6800 is out of the qusetion for me, i dont have PCIE

There is 6800 AGP also. You don't have to buy pci-e. 6800 will probably beat 9800XT.

It destroys it. But good luck finding one for $250. Though, $265-$275 isn't that bad. And you could just wait and get the X800XL which for about the same price will destroy the 6800 ( it's pci-e, though.)
