Look at this! "Weekend Sale" must mean tomorrow it's over, this is the 6600GT chip I was going to buy but with 256 RAM for the same price as a 128 - I still don't know shit about the manufacturer though, so somebody tell me: is there any reason I shouldn't grab this right now?
And anyone looking to upgrade, take a look, this is what you could get right this second for $130 after shipping.

Since nobody replied and the "weekend sale" probably ends at midnight, I went ahead and ordered it. I'll let you know how it runs.

It's a nice looking card with an Nvidia chipset. Shouldn't be hard to find drivers for it and make it run smooth. Since it's from the 'Egg, any problems you have will likely be resolved quickly thru RMA if it gets to that. Congrats. :)
Wish I had that kinda $$$.

IM guessing this card is no good for AGP? Are there any good 8x AGP cards out there? By nvidia? or any super deals perhaps. THanx

I disagree. XFX cards are known for heating/cooling issues. EVGA and BFG are much better manufacturers.
