Hey Everyone!

I just purchased a new video card while at Best Buy the other day (I was in a pinch) and I saw that Newegg had the same make for half the price, the only difference is the model numbers. Does anyone know if there is a huge difference between these two models? Any advice/thoughts would be very much appreciated.

Model listed on Newegg: 02G-P4-1953-KR - Here's a link

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the quick reply, Scuzzycard!

So if I'm not really going to be overclocking, would you still go with the Newegg option? Will I see that much of a difference in the OC?
