    Komplett sell
    • Superior Radeon 9600 256mb for €79.50
    • Even more superior Radeon 9600pro 256mb for €85.00
    • Infinitely more superior Radeon 9600xt 256mb for €82.00 (B-grade)
    €11 An Post delivery, and you get yourself an actual GPU.

    I was in PC world today, they've really done a bit of an overhaul on their gfx prices thank god.

    Radeon 9550 128mb 70 quid, still a crap price but they were charging about double that a few months ago. They also have a geforce 256mb 6200 for 80, and a 256mb FX5500 for 50. As I said, not great, but a hell of an improvement on what they were charging. They had a x800gt for 200 as well.

    Oh. Guess not!:rolleyes:

    Ok, ok, it's actually not that bad (Komplett: €182)
    But an x800gto would be cheaper & better still!:D

    Yeah but the point being, if someone who knows nothing about computers wanders in and requests their card to be changed instore, they aren't going to get stung quite as badly as they would have previously....! :D

    Loosing 20 quid in a store as opposed to buying online is generally acceptable really, but in the past they had cards that were over 100 quid more expensive then the online counterparts!

    Pity they didn't update some of their other prices though. :rolleyes: :v:

    oh BTW they had a 512mb 6200 for 130 in Maplins...advertised simply as a great card with a "Monster 512mb memory"....I just don't understand the point, a 128mb 6600 is probably still better, let alone a gt model which is about the same price incidentally. But loads of people will see the 512mb memory.....which is honestly pointless and makes no difference to the fact the 6200 is a poor card.....and snap it up thinking they got a hot deal.

    Wonder how many ill-informed wannabe gamers are going to get stung by this one? :D
