[quote="Sergeant_Scrotum":cb184][quote="Short Hand":cb184]http://factorydirect.ca/cgi-bin/product_spec.pl/GF5612 only way i would go with a 5600 is if it were some insae price, like this. this is a normal verion of the card.[/quote:cb184]

"Refurbished " eek:[/quote:cb184]

my video card is refurbished and ive had it for almost 4 years, and it been over clocked 90 % of the time. 99 % of the product their is fine. + if your going to get a 5600 dont waste you money on an expensive one, either commit to a 9600xt or go cheapo like this is your best bet. + their is a warrenty on these refurbished products so if it does go bad switch it. hell if you got a 3 year warrenty and it expires in 2 and a half, they would prob give you a newer gen card. making all more the reason to buy refurbished.
