TD = td

Although gamers are known for their good manners and courtesy, it might be a good idea to break form and start including the vendor in the thread title, as Taxed Amazonians get almost as pissy as those of us that are not only taxed by TD but would also never buy so much as a wooden nickel from them, despite it only being $0.05 after $25 MIR...

Agreed. While this is a good deal.... I do not purchase from TD under any circumstances.

I try not to as well and would order the same deal from circuitcity.com if I could. Come Jan. 1 no more circuitcity.com.......

This is a great deal on this card with 2 free games.
Its a catch 22 on the games as both will have DLC. I have learned unless I have to have the game I won't buy games with DLC and I will wait for a GOTY version and on sale.

Wrong specs on TD so just a ok deal now.

I'm surprised this hasn't gotten more attention. If I recall correctly, we haven't seen many 670s around this price, and the two included games are worth a good bit as well. I'm seriously considering it and just wondering at this point if I should hold out for New Year's sales.

Waiting for these things to go down to $200.

This went front page last time, and I kicked myself for not jumping on it. Reviews are all over the place, especially with coil whine. Hopefully that's just a few vocal owners of bad cards.

Like everybody else, I really hate working with TigerDirect, but every once in a while they have a sale that is worth the risk of dealing with their customer service. The only PayPal dispute I have ever had to make was with TD and PayPal took care of me.

Usually by the time a generation of graphics cards have moved from a sale price of $300 to a sale price of $200, the graphics requirements of games have increased so that they stay at the original $300 price point of the graphics card.

Or, in English, water is wet and prices for graphics cards keep going down. But hardware requirements for games keep going up.

Is this better than 7950?

Is this better than 2x GTX 660 2GB in SLI?
its not TI version

This card has a lot of probs with ubisoft games like ac3 and far cry 3.

Amazon has price matched this deal, though without the two game codes. In stock as of 3:00 EST.

You sir are wrong. PC games are horribly underpowered. They had new engines come out demoing new features but games are still stuck in the stone age (hyperbole) because of the 6+ year old console hardware. Remember the PS3 and the Xbox360? The ATI 4850 was more powerful than those and the 4850 equivelant? Is like below a GTX640 at the moment.

If you have a GTX 460, ATI 5850, 7770, etc. You have enough muscle to play the newest games and have it look better.

You're probably referencing pumping everything to ultra and smacking 16x AA on it which GTX cards would choke on earlier since they're low on memory bandwidth and VRAM compared to the AMD cards of this generation.

newegg often has the asus 670 refurb for 290 most if the week around 4 pst. they go quick but i think it is a better option than a galaxy with mir. free returm shipping with sr within 30 days
