Question

Video Card value question...


I have the opportunity to pick up an nVidia 5600 Ultra 128MB manufacturer reference vid-card for $150. Considering that the PNY version of the same card retails for $249.99, I'm thinking that this is a smoking deal.

My question is, do manufacturer reference boards hold up over the course of time?

Well, I pulled the trigger on the deal. The new vid-card arrived today. I will install it and put it through it's proper paces (Splinter Cell anyone?) and report...
