Hi all -

I'm just starting out a new build and am considering the graphics card first, as I'd like to use the machine for mostly gaming and light office/internet stuff. I've done my research and it seems like most folks are fans of the NVIDIA GTX 760.

Many of the rankings are listing the GTX 760 as about $250, and a good value at that. I found an MSI version available on NewEgg for $199 (after rebate). Seems to be a great deal, but I wanted to check to make sure it wasn't a weaker model GPU (eg. less RAM) than what people are currently liking.

The link to the ad is below, along with the full model number available. Please let me know if you have any additional advice on the GTX 760 card. Thanks a lot!

Ouch, sold out. Thanks for the quick response, but I snoozed and loosed.
