I might get the scanner as well, but I don't need the hard drive/netcams/cd rw drive. A lot of you probably will be better off to ask for some of this stuff for christmas.. Oh, and Im pretty sure that other stores will have pretty awesome deals on computer stuff on Friday, but I haven't seen any ads with prices yet from anywhere else. And this should stay in the computer folder.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Eagan469 Report post Posted November 27, 2002 I made the dumbass mistake of jumping on a $29.99 32MB Geforce video card at Circuit City last week. Unfortunately I didn't have a free AGP slot like I originally thought, so the card is now useless. I also managed to fry my network card while my case was open, and my cable internet connection was down for a week. Hope you have better luck than me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MarvinisaLunatic Report post Posted November 28, 2002 Sell the video card on EBay and get some (if not all) of your money back. I don't think I'll have any problems with the new memory, if anything it will be a good performance boost. I know the memory is compatible.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
