No idea how long this will last but, it atleast seems like a good deal to me.

is there a general consensus on which is better out of the 9600gt and 3870?

 

[Rydawg5143]

3870 is better. ZI knew i should of bought the 3870 for 70 deal when i posted it last time

 

[ChuckLez]

would call it warm. I got the same price for the palit card and $20 MIR. Good card for my budget gaming computer.

Makes me kinda regret getting the 4670 IceQ for $80 after rebate.

I don't NEED the horse power of a 3870, and I guess I will save not having to get a new PSU with enough juice to run it. And the 4670 is extremely power efficient.

But $9 difference.

Would this be better than my 7800gtx for playing crysis?

Yes, by a pretty big margin too.

plus theres 15 mir
$104--$15(promo)-$15(mir)= $74 that might makes [H]ot or at least warmer?

I opted for the 4670 for the HTPC low power consumption, comes close enough and games are minimal on the HTPC.
