Here is the link from Newegg where I am currently looking at the Nvidia GTX 285. I'm confused about some of the model numbers and what they mean though...
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130484
This is the superclocked edition that comes with Call of Duty: WAW
The end of its model number is 1181, and it sells for $315 after rebates
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130442
This is a non-superclocked edition that doesn't come with the free game.
Then end of its model number is 1281, and it sells for $320 after rebates.

This is another non superclocked edition that doesn't come with a free game.
The end of its model number is 1180, and it sells for $300 after rebates.
My question is why is the superclocked version with the free game cheaper? Is it just the deal they are having at the moment? And why is there a different model number and price between two non-overclocked cards with no free game? Is it a different revision of the card, kind of like how processors do with the different -steppings? these model numbers are really confusing me. There are also a lot more people that have bought the 1281 card.
Finally there is also a recertified version on that same first link for $290. Does it retain the same warranty as the other cards? On Newegg's site it shows the recertified card coming with only a 90 day limited manufacturer warranty. I just figured that with EVGA you would still get the lifetime warranty, step up program, etc. etc. etc.
I would probably choose the superclocked version for $315, but i wouldn't want to be missing out on a revised or better product.
Thanks guys.
