ti 4200 128 mg Albatro, Abit or Chaintech card?
Which one is generally better for ocing etc.

these are around $160 shipped from reputable dealers. Save $25 by trying a shadier dealer.

or try for a 4400 for around $200......

or a 4600 for ??????

I saw a refurbished saphire 9700 pro for $240 at New Egg but out of stock.

BTW anyone have any coupons for googlegear?

I guess the question is, how desperately do you need one? Oh, and what kind of performance do you expect out of it? And are you planning to over clock it.

Personally, if you have no problem running current games, I'd wait. If you are, want the best performance out of your system, and don't mind spending the money, go for a 4400 or 4600. If you are willing to overclock, you sound like you want to, go with the 4200.

Another option is to check various forums {PCA, AnandTech} and see what people are selling. That's how I got a GF4 Ti4600 for $180 (http://www.gotapex.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=50377) shipped. :D

Greg, a top notch trader, has a Ti4400 $165 shipped. http://www.pcabusers.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=22333

is that albatron $192 before tax and ship? cuz that makes it over $210 shipped.
For that price I can start looking at 4400's.
I have a feeling the day after I order whatever, it will go on sale.
