I bet you'll be able to get a 8800GTS 512 for 170-190 in the summer.

Also, listed on the same page is an E6750 + 8800GT for 390$ =D

It is at $216 on my screen at Amazon and no mention of a rebate. Where did you see that there is a rebate?

Careful on PNY's... the "lifetime warranty" is defined as "the lifetime of the product in the market". If it's not made anymore, it's not under warranty. It's a scam really.

It's not life time for this one. :P

Three years (plus an additional 2 years upon completion of a registration form on PNY's website) (http://www2.pny.com/8800-GT-512MB-PCIe-20-font-colordc0431NEWfont-P2562C269.aspx)

sounds good. i don't think i'll b able to use the same card for more than 3 yrs anyway. my last card was 6800gs i got in 06. i bought it for 200 back then and now its worth like 20 dollars lol.. least i can play games like crysis on med. settings still! under 10 fps har har har. sigh.

5 years is pretty decent. I hope PNY has abandoned their deceptive "lifetime warranty" in favor of something more useful to the consumer and more honest.

... and now it's gone again.

Time to stick a fork in this one.

Is it just a rebate form to print and send in? Maybe someone with the form could post it. If the rebate is through PNY it doesn't matter whether Amazon posts it or not, so long as the item qualifies and is within the purchase date requirement.

Good from Mar.5th - 25th, and through amazon purchase only.
