$40 more you get XFX + COD4.

But why? Most people already have CoD4. In any case, it can be had for less than $40.

I didn't complain, I was just saying how much it would cost to get XFX.

Ok here is a good reason to go XFX. I believe that Canada also gets Double Life Time warranty. You can PM XFX Support on that. That is the biggest reason.

And I won't bring up the fact as to how cool Shannon is on support. OOPPPS, guess I just did.

OHH i know how cool shannon is! lol.
I am going to be using my moms CC as i dont have my own right now to place the order and she is iffy about the total cost. I dont know if she will be cool with the total cost on the XFX is the prob. its pushing 400 with tax and shipping where as the EVGA can be had for 350-. Damn I hope i can grab that XFX.

Putting all biased opinions aside, $40 is $40 plus the tax on top of that. I don't know about you but I like to save $.

I was thinking the same thing, I would hate to see the 60 dollar i would save today disappear and only some 8800GT go on dirt cheap though.
I am all for saving money, but you see I dont have COD4 either, werty. ;-)

srsly, what the hell is a double lifetime warranty? unless someone freezes someone for about 50 years, aint that kinda useless?

LOL, its so if yea sell the card the buyer has a warrenty. Useless to the original purchaser other then a resale perk maybe?
I do know how well shannon treats the folks around here and thats worth 40 bucks on its own almost though.

If you don't have COD4 get the XFX Deal, that game is a great game, the company is a great company. Look at what you get for $40 more.

$250 is quite the nice price for a 9800GTX I must say but $145 for a 8800GT (http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=27142&promoid=1001) is just too sweet.

ohhhh, I missed that!! hummm I could grab a couple of those and SLI em....
anyone got a quick link to some 8800gt sli vs. 9800gtx reviews? or 9600gt sli vs. 9800gtx?
humm... I was terrible dissapointed in twin 7600gt's performancewise. I dont know if i want to even think about SLI again...

Humm, are these SLI result for the 9600GT's only coming of pci-e 2.0 boards?

Is it just me or does that look like it doesn't come with COD4?

Not sure if im gettin COD4 or not... I hope so. But for the 49.99 more it was to get it with the card I am farther ahead to pick it up here in town for 39.99 and save myself 10 bucks.
