I am receiving a MSI GTX 560 Ti twin frozr 2 OC card from my RMA with MSI soon. I figure its worth $160-$180? I paid $260 but I know price has come down greatly. Thanks.

It'll be a refurbished model most likely, the one I had had a fan die but if its the same card I was able to reach 1000mhz on almost stock voltage, but i usually never kept it overclocked due to extra heat with sli i didn't need any more

I'd say $165 shipped, tops. 560 Ti's have been selling at stupidly low prices recently. I had to drop the price of mine down to $145 a few weeks ago just to get it to sell, but it was just a Galaxy model (not a refurbished Twin Frozr).

I bought a new 2gb TFII model for 180 very recently. I'd say $150 is right on the money. Mine was an rma but came in new and they do carry a full new warranty, so that's a positive.
