Im Sorry For Another Shitty Gfx Thread

but no HL2! thats worth about 80 bucks canadian right there, which i would be spending anyway, so really its a 9600XT for about....130 USD? or 170 CAD
thats not to shabby

Why buy HL2 when it's a COUPON? If I were to get a game like that, I would be sure the game would come in a CD, not something that would give me "permission" to download it.

I myself am not really clear on the voucher thing, Is it just a piece of paper that you can take to a retailer and get a copy of HL2, or is it a serial so you can play it? or what?

It's a paper that gives you the permission to download the game (probably via Steam) or get your CD via mail. Getting the CD via mail is something I don't know for sure. That's why I don't think that deal is good.

or does it?

I don't know if it works or not.

From my reasoning, it probably gives you a pass to their web server or something, one log in or dlownload or something through it too, to download the Bins or ISOS or whatever.

tell me what you think, kinda looks like one of those budget cards to me, so i gotta ask, whats it worth?

you can't judge a video card by looking at a picture of it. i mean, yes, if it looks like it's made out of tin cans and scotch tape, then maybe you should avoid it. but otherwise, a picture of the card doesn't really tell you much at all-- they all look basically the same, except some have cooling fans on 'em and some don't (depending on how warm the graphics chip runs).
