ATI 5850 at CompUSA 259.99; less than 230 after Bing Cashback

DonInKansas · Mar 24, 2010, 02:55 AM

Bing Cashback at CompUSA is 12.5% so that knocks it down under 230.

Looks like price drops may be coming..........

Really good price, especially with cash back. However, I did notice there is only a 1 year warranty with those cards. Weird. I can see a 2 year, but only one?

Great deal here folks

Yes, ATI killed their 3/5/10 year warranty stuff. Its sad, I know.

Plus you get to deal with ATI directly. I honestly don't know if that's a good or bad thing as I never had to deal with a broken reference card. I guess for me, Canada is pretty close by.

If I had the PSU power I would consider another card for trifire...

Was thinking about getting a 5830 when the price drops to around $200, but at that price for a much better card i ordered one.

5830 is for suckers.
