Benchmark Scores It does boot up? I think.
Cool Edition
Clearly, this is a jest.
That sad excuse of a HSF means the real name of this card should be "Scorching Hot Edition".

sorry for bumping an oooooold thread but I have a few questions.

I can pick one of these up for $45 locally, I currently have a evga 9600gt 512mb(normal version) with a 9500gt(for phisx) on the way...

would the 250gts be a decent upgrade to replace the 9600/9500 combo, or should I hold out for another card? I don't see the 4xx cards getting below the $70 for awhile...

its a good upgrade however i would recommend making a new thread next time and not bumping an almost 2 year old one
