GTX 460 1GB $150 - Is it worth it to buy now or wait for Christmas sales
2 replies, posted
I've been out of the loop on PC hardware for a little while now but I re-educated myself about video cards over the past few days after seeing all the sales. I found one where it is a GTX 460 on sale for $150 [url]http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=56969&vpn=GV%2DN460SE%2D1GI&manufacture=Gigabyte&promoid=1264[/url]
I'm just curious in case someone has more thorough knowledge of price drops and when they occur. Would it be worth it to take advantage of this now or wait until the Christmas sales? Will it still be the same "sale" for the Christmas sales? There is also an HD5830 on sale for the same price but from my research it appears the GTX 460 comes out on top.

I'm upgrading from a hd4850.
edit: bought it, couldn't help myself just want to run arma 2 maxed.
afaik GTX 460 1GB's are usually $200 so I would say that $150 is a good deal

nevermind you already bought it
4850 to GTX 460 isn't really worth it in my opinion. Should have gotten something beefier, like 6870 or GTX 470. Well then again you could SLi 460s and you already purchased it so.
