Hey Guys, I'd like to ask you if it's worth it to take this move. My local store will be selling POV GTX 660ti's Dual Fan tomorrow for 50% off ($139). Here's the catch, since it's a clearance sale, the item will only have a 6 months warranty from the manufacturer according to the store, so what do you think guys? should I go for this? I am currenty using my old GPU, it's a EVGA GTS 450 and I know i really need to upgrade. Thanks!

That's a really good price, I would go for it, it will be a huge performance increase over the GTS 450.
Cards usually fail right away if they are going to fail or after a long time , so I would get it and not worry , if there's anything wrong with it , it will show within the 6 months , thats just my opinion.

Thanks dude, I also think that the 6 months duration is long enough to see if there's something wrong with it, I'll go for it man.

I see no reason not to, and honestly I don't call it gambling, 6 months is a lot of time, if the gpu had any problem, I would show it within a couple of weeks, that's a bargain, I wouldn't lose the opportunity to upgrade, if I were you

Yeah and I've been holding back enough, waiting for the 750ti t show up, buy I doubt that it'll cost me $139 bro, so I'll go for this.
