    because nowhere on there do they mention the word PRO

    e-mailing them to return it, and for them to cover return shipping costs, and no penalties that they have on listed in their return policies...if they do this, they're a good retailer...so it's non-suckage....if they don't or I have to yell at them forever for them to do this, it's major suckage....
    oh, and of course they don't have a toll free number to call them...so I gave them my number, and told them to call me....>(

    Cool

    You do realize the GeForce 2 Pro has faster memory than the GeForce 2 GTS?

    Yea, its a faster card, so what are you complaining about? and WHY are you trying to return it. $132 is a good price for that card.
