X1950Pro for $175 shipped?

[AMDThunder]

Anyone have any info on this card?
Asus EAX1950PRO/HTDP/256M Radeon X1950 PRO Video Card

Newegg ran out of the $199.99 Sapphire cards, so I did some looking around. Seems like a good deal, no?

If you mean the first match at

Then,

Available: No

If the 199 Sapphires are gone, the 209 Powercolor isn't a bad deal with the X2 cooler on it. The Sapphire card goes in and out of stock so if you're patient, it should be back eventually. The ASUS and Gigabyte cards haven't been in stock for a while.

X1950pro for $175 shipped= good deal.

I would also be worried about buying a part from a company I've never heard of. Buying from someone you've at least heard of and know to be a good company means you don't have to worry about your CC number getting out. Just because you can buy something cheap doesn't mean you should...

Doh! Didn't notice it was out of stock. Oh well, still seems like a good deal. Set up for email notice when it's back. May go with the other one at Newegg to be safe.

Newegg had that Asus for about the same price back at X1950 pro launch.
