NOTE: To get this deal you have to have a Dell Small Business "25% Off Accessories" coupon. I never heard of these until a few days ago and maybe I was lucky that I found one quickly. Supposedly you can find them on eBay for a couple of bucks but I didn't get mine there. I found one on slickdeals but these are ONE-TIME-USE-ONLY coupons and when they become available there they are usually scarfed up pretty fast. The one I found, however, I didn't use until 12 hours later and it was still good so YMMV.
Dell Small Business has the BFG 7800GT listed for $419.95 with an automatic discount of 10% making it $377.95. There's a $30 MIR available that makes it $347.95 AR, a mediocre price, but here's the key: there are Dell SB 25% off Accessories coupons out there (I know because I found one last night at slickdeals) that make the price $314.96 and that goes down to $284.96 AR. That's the best deal I've seen on a BFG 7800GT OC anywhere. YMMV. Dell SB hits you for sales tax, too, so after tax the price was a bit higher. In general I think we're going to see the 7800GT below $300 everywhere in the very near future. I noticed on the AnandTech pricing engine today that most etailers have actually increased their prices over last week. Still, I'm a happy camper. I've got 21 days to send it back to Dell if there are any problems with it and the lifetime BFG warranty after that.
