HALP ME!

I'm trying to acquire this graphics card http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=7191450&CatId=3669 because it doubles my current shit and its within my price range. My dilemma is that I am not sure if it will go on sale for Cyber Monday or not. Because if I can get a sweet deal on this and spend less money then why not? If anyone has any idea how to check to see if this will go on sale or if you can find a graphics card of equal or greater performance within the price range of $150 max, then any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Card blows, don't get it.

Added in Edit: Just kidding, I used to have the same card (two of them in fact) and I liked them a lot. Another thing you may consider is checking if you have a MicroCenter nearby you, if not, check their website, they may have Cyber Monday deals posted.

Also, go to slickdeals.net and look at their graphics card info. A lot of people leak Cyber Monday and Black Friday stuff from their company beforehand so you can know exactly what's going to be on there. Hope that helps.

Well my current card is an ATI Radeon HD 5700 soooooooooo that one is a huge upgrade lol. I just need a good one within 150 bucks, which should be even easier with cyber monday hopefully.

seriously , get a 660 or a 660 Ti , 560's are overrated.

Well, with the 560 TI through EVGA, you're looking at running pretty much any game currently out flawlessly and with good fps.


Mount&Blade will look great, hardly any lag even with particles like fires and stuff.
Planetside 2 should be just fine.
Battlefield 3 no problem.
Assassin's Creed--puhhhlease.


It will handle what you throw at it, and EVGA is about the only manufacturer of the 560tis that I like. I had bad luck with PNYs and other junky manufacturers.

This is why we made you Moderator <3


Also because of Butts...
I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

Go for this! http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150617

Faster than the GTX560, and it's the current generation of AMD cards. Fantastic performance with the latest drivers, and at $154.99 (after $20 Mail In Rebate) it's a great deal.
Definitely check it out.
