Combine with this:

Take an extra 10 muffins. It works! I just picked up a muffin for pennies and I still have the $20 rebate coming later.

I wanted the blueberry edition because I already have two of them. Triple baked goods are on the way!!!

EDIT: Eh, I didn't notice SystemViper's got a wonderfully sculped set of pecks.

I actually bought one of these when I saw it on slickdeals this morning. Way over my price budget, but I think it was a good investment. Came to $230 after tax and coupon

Only thing I'm scared about is the buy.com return/RMA policy...

They say you have 14 days after the shipment leaves their warehouse to return it, even if it is defective...

EDIT: Deal is dead, back at $300+

EDIT: Deal has been brought back to life

To bad I just bought a 4870 cause if I had the cash I would totally jump on one of these.

Deal's dead...

SystemViper · Jan 10, 2009

looks good to me...

3870x2 · Jan 10, 2009

the deal is good, dont know why you keep saying it is dead, and it is 201, 181 after MIR, !!

Beertintedgoggles · Jan 10, 2009

Are these new or refurbed?? I can't stop thinking this deal is too good to be true.

paulm · Jan 10, 2009

It was dead for a while... I just noticed it went back.

When I said it was dead, it was for sale @ $330 or so

ShadowFold · Jan 10, 2009

I'm about to buy this but will my PSU handle it?

I got one too, and I'm pretty sure your PSU can handle it...

ShadowFold · Jan 10, 2009

OMG I CANT BELIEVE IT!!! I just bought it for 220$

D

3870x2 · Jan 10, 2009

I got 1 day shipping with it. EVGA FTW!!!

3870x2 · Jan 10, 2009

yes, EVGA ftw, ive never bought Nv w/out evga being on the card.

ShadowFold · Jan 10, 2009

I think I am hyperventilating lol this is unbelievable!

paulm · Jan 10, 2009

Seriously, what the hell is going on at buy.com?

They got the Evga Factory OC'd cards for sale all at around ~200, BFG @ ~ 230, PNY @ 225, and XFX @ $225

Seems a little strange... (I'm not complain'n, just seems odd that they have that significant of a price drop while others are staying at $300+)

ShadowFold · Jan 10, 2009

hmm it hasn't showed in my recent ordered yet.. and I haven't gotten an email. How long does this usually take? I checked out as a guest and made a new account later so thats why I guess.

Hahaha, you have already updated your Specs. :roll:

ShadowFold · Jan 10, 2009

Ok its been a good 20 mins since I ordered and I don't have an email yet. Should I try and rebuy it?

Anyone buy from Buy.com before?? Does it take this long to get an email??

I got 2 EVGA cards normal clock. Is this worth the upgrade over my HD 4870x2? I don't even have an SLI capable mobo.
