Is this a good buy? BFG GeForce FX 5900 for $175 including shipping?
I've been asking back and forth about video cards...
I see online there are lots of vendors selling the BFG GeForce FX 5900 card for around $175 including shipping. Is that not a very good price? I've been considering the ATI RADEON 9600. Between the two, which is better and more worth the money? I don't want to have any problems like I've been having with my eVga card with power warnings etc. I've got ample power. Recommendation? TIA ---Atreju---

9600 XT. Good? On Wed, 21 Jan 2004 13:14:50 GMT, Atreju wrote: I've been asking back and forth about video cards...

Go to www.pricewatch.com and simply type in BFG 5900 Plenty of hits mostly in the high $160s + shipping ends up around $172-ish. Incidentally, I've ordered the ATI RADEON 9600XT. I hope I'm happy with that card. On Wed, 21 Jan 2004 13:14:50 GMT, Atreju wrote: I've been asking back and forth about video cards...
