| 484507 | 2006-09-14 07:38:00 | That is amazing. that has got to be a mistake. That would be below cost price | Greven (91) | ||
| 484508 | 2006-09-14 07:52:00 | Would be interesting to see what happens if you order one. Unfortunately its only a socket 754 board :-) | gcarmich (10068) | ||
| 484509 | 2006-09-14 08:01:00 | As it happens I have ordered one, as I want to build a cheapie sempron system... the motherboard I was going to get only had 3 PCI slots and was $79 So if I get this, its gonna be sweet :lol: Her's another madly cheap priced item: www.gpstore.co.nz |

Due to the seller's administrative processes, errors (if any) may be discovered up to 30 days after the goods have been delivered to the buyer. The seller will notify they buyer promptly of any error or omission discovered by the seller, and give the buyer the option of returning the goods for a full refund. Right. So when they discover they have under charged you 25 days later, you have the choice of pulling your system apart and returning the part rendering your computer unusable or paying the correct (yet to be determined) price. I guess most will cough up the price than having to pull a installed and working system apart. Bit strange both those "cheap" items you link to are both the exact price. |

| 484511 | 2006-09-14 11:24:00 | They may just have a pile of them in stock and since the AMD AM2 CPUs are out and socket 754 is pretty much done, they just want to get rid of them while SKT754 CPUs are still available. | CYaBro (73) | ||
| 484512 | 2006-09-14 11:55:00 | Her's another madly cheap priced item: www.gpstore.co.nz Is it a good card? I currently have a 64Mb card and have been looking for an upgrade and this seems about the price i want to pay (I am a cheapskate), Also with vista coming along would that card be a better bet to ensure my system works well with it. |

Hopefully it is not an error/they don't notice :D They may just have a pile of them in stock and since the AMD AM2 CPUs are out and socket 754 is pretty much done, they just want to get rid of them while SKT754 CPUs are still available. Maybe, maybe... but then it does say no stock in store, stock with supplier instead (however most of the stuff the're selling says that) Is it a good card? I currently have a 64Mb card and have been looking for an upgrade and this seems about the price i want to pay (I am a cheapskate), Also with vista coming along would that card be a better bet to ensure my system works well with it. It's not that great, but it's better than a 9200 or 9250SE id say and that's about it. (for ATi Cards, SE means Sucky Edition) LOL. I doubt it would handle the full on aero GUI in vista but it would probably be fine for the other one. What card do you have already? |

| 484514 | 2006-09-15 02:48:00 | It won't run all the eye candy of vista - you need a card that supports Direct X 9 in hardware for that. | Greven (91) | ||
| 484515 | 2006-09-18 07:10:00 | Well, they never said anything about the price being a mistake but they have informed me that their supplier is out of stock and they will be refunding me. Oh well.. :rolleyes: |
