okay, so is the 9500 any good? i heard a while back if you o/c, it could be as good as the 9700 , don&#39;t know if that&#39;s true. btw, i&#39;m in b.c. (14.5% tax ). ya, i think ebay is probably my best shot. in your opinion guys, what&#39;s better for price, a geforce or radeon? i&#39;m thinking about the 9500 and the 9700 (220 bucks isn&#39;t bad, i can save up to that in about a week). i just need something with direct x9.0 and opengl 2.0 capabilities (need it for upcoming games, duh, doom3 and half life2 in particular). i&#39;ll check out that alberta site, btw, how much tax do you have to pay in alberta?

Cpt-azad im from Van .B C Have you tryed NTCW [ new type computer workshop] here in vancouver I see they have the best prices in the Vancouver area.



Edit Guys please remember this is in Canadian Funny Money please dont have a heart attack&#33; lol .Oh bye the way try Future shop? [/b][/quote]
ya, i&#39;m in vancouver, sorta, i&#39;m actually in surrey/delta area (but i won&#39;t tell you where exactly, michael jackson could be on this board ). 14.5% tax . i tried futureshop, way to damn expensive, i think that the small stores that only specialize in computer/parts (futureshop is more of an electronic store) are cheaper. btw, I DIDN&#39;T BUY THE CARD YET (after looking around i found it for 20 bucks cheaper). i&#39;ve already ordered all the parts i need for the new comp, i just need the v/c and a good psu. ntcw? i&#39;ll give it a shot, any tips on where to find it in vancouver (i&#39;m guessing east broadway?)? thanks guys.


btw, jaigandhi5, i feel sorry for ya, ouch&#33; (it&#39;s only .5% difference, but ouch still&#33

You won&#39;t find cheap computer parts in BC. You can thank the taxes for that. It&#39;d probably be cheaper to order directly from the States.

If you want to rip some VHS tapes: Pinnacle PCTV Rave is a good card. It just costs 49 or 59 Euro (aroung 50 Dollars&#33 and won some Emmy Awards as shown on the package.

As I had no experience with Video Cards, I looked out for the one with the best recommendations on amazon.com.

The Video Card also supports Satellite Receiver, Antenna, or Cable for TV. The Pro Version also has Radio Receiver support.

However, we are looking out for cards which are good with games, which this card is not
