$23.12 off with code:
32000-1066

To be honest I don't know if this card is any better than a regular 9800GT. It's a dual slot with the cooler and back heatsink so my guess is it's good at OCing. If an owner of this card has more insight post here please

Its just an extremely overpriced 8800GT with a mediocre cooler. An absolute rip off at that price, a new 9800GT which is the same thing are $110 new. $171 + NCIX rip off shipping is LOLOLOL.

What's so "$172" about an 8800 GT? Ridiculous. Whoever handles the pricing on NCIX needs to be fired, or caught up to 2009.

I think the cooling system is what you're paying for. Seems like this is a good card for OCing

And by the way, it's a 9800GT. No need to cry about rebadging

You're missing the point. You can get a GTX260 for that price...

I just posted the link and coupon, and maybe if you read my initial post you'd understand I'm as confused as everyone else. Sorry for upsetting you

But it isn't an 8800 it's a 9800.

Different cooling, different look, key word is different.

Yes i have and still do own an 8800GT. Yes i have seen the reviews of this akimbo cooler. Yes this is beyond a rip off. Normally people post products on here that are considered a deal, this is a negative deal. Reminds me of best buy video card prices.
