Who do you have to kill to find a 7600GT AGP for $175?

I think the title says it all...

But in case it doesnt, the card is listed in a recent Tom's article titled 'Best Gaming Video Cards for the Money" as the best card in the $175 range, but the few I have been able to locate are $200+.

And for all the haters who will scream at me to go PCI-E, I will, but only when the next gen CPUs are out and rolling. Not gonna spend a bundle on a new system today with quad core systems right around the corner.

Too bad it's out of stock. ATi doesn't sound interesting for you ?

Actually im an ATI fan, but the X16 cards are too shaky on the Source engine and I play alot of CS:S, I may end up going X800 style, but I was looking forward to HDR. (BTW, upgradng from GF FX5200, ugg)

Sometimes people can't choose their cards, presents etc.

And sometimes you have to buy thngs from a limited selection. I got it in a town of 3500 out of pure desperation, my Radeon VIVO 64MB just wasnt cutting it any more, and e-tail wasnt an option at the time.
