Any of you have and old PCIE video card laying around from when you might have upgraded? I am looking for a really cheap one to tide me over till I can buy a good one. PM if you do.

lol. you can check out the 8600s, I think those can be had for inexpensively. Newegg's always got the best deals, and black friday is coming up too.

I have some old AGP cards laying around, but nothing in PCIe. If you want a cheap replacement , look at the 1650 GT cards on newegg. I just picked up one for $65 after my old video card burned up.

The price is right... <$50 and it'll be a decent card to hold you over...

Thanks for the input I have been looking around and just decided to wait it out and get the 8800 gt that I want.

Yeah that's an awesome card. Works great with Crysis
Best Buy currently has the lowest price for this card.
It's a BFG for $250.00

I just bought a Gigabyte p35 Mobo and a C2Quad 6600 with 2 gb crucial balistix memory. that took all my spare cash.

as for the 8800 GT evga makes a slightly overclocked model I think I am gonna grab thats around 300. the BFG is a pretty good card tho. I'll have to look into it.

Since you guys are computer guys, you might appriciate this. It lives along the lines of the somethingaweful universe, if you follow it. Listen to the youtube links with the volume down, but you'll die laughing....
