That link in the first post will only work for the OP while he doesn't either change his cart or clear his cookies.
It takes you to your shopping cart and since you have it adding to your shopping cart, you can see it fine but the rest of us who do not have it already added to our shopping carts cannot see the combo but rather our own shopping carts.
If this is a deal posted by somebody else, I'm sure this famous OP will jump in and neg how crappy the recent Ballistix batches are and how un-playable the video card is going to be for upcoming games, and then strongly suggest people don't waste money and rebate stamps on the deal. So newbies/OP worshippers, you are warned.

So newbies/OP worshippers, you are warned. Wrong. People posting a 256mb 8800gt for nearly the same price of 512mb version deserves crapping on. Its all about price/performance which is something you dont understand.
Reminder: If you had already purchased this Ballistix memory under the "get 2 free 1GB flash drives combo" deal, you won't be eligible for this deal again since the rebate promotion is still the same.
I know most FWers do their homework, but this is just to remind those that get carried away whenever a hot deal is posted.

So newbies/OP worshippers, you are warned. Lol, onion may have a history of TCing on other deals but if it's a good deal you should treat it as such. No reason to neg or red because of the OP.
Also, I'm getting Red's for posting links to the deal, I've never seen that happen before, someone wanna explain it to me?

^^ wrong thread ask in the 8600gt deal both of the GPU ur talking about are not in this deal
I think it's a good deal, I bought the card for 80 AR a couple of days ago, and Newegg cust service gave me credit on the ram to equal this new deal. I just need a decent dual dvi video card for work, and my passive cooled xfx 7600 isn't cutting it.

I ordered Thursday night as well. Received shipping notice with tracking number from Newegg this morning. Shipping from their CA warehouse and expected delivery is July 2.
Combo deal is dead but the card alone is now $64.95 AR ($30) with coupon code EMCAHBABB
Excellent deal on this - this card is slightly faster than the Radeon HD 3850 I bought six months ago for $100 more. I've slammed Onion more than a few times in the past for threadcrapping on other people's posts, but this is/was a very good deal and a very worthwhile post and I gave him the green that such a deal deserves, notwithstanding his history.
Having a tough time figuring out the answer to what I'd think would be an easy question.
What uses more power (and how much more) - this card or my current card (an eVGA 7800 GT - details in link).
My power supply is dinky (only rated at 250 watts) but runs the 7800 GT fine (even though it says you have to have a larger PS). Want to see if the 8800 GS would be a good upgrade for it... then the wife gets my 7800.
Is there a site out there which lists actual power usage by video card?

anandtech and tom's hardware I think recently do power consumption in their reviews.
