Newegg blows, has blown for the last year. It used to be the same price as Fry's. Now often times it's more expensive than Fry's. I've seen the same stuff on Amazon that is on Newegg, up to $50 cheaper. What a joke.

Forgot to state this, but if you don't believe the above post, go download Amazon's wishlist extension for Chrome/Firefox. When you're on a site like NewEgg, you can click it and it will find the same product on Amazon. Often times CPUs will be the same price, or sometimes cheaper on Amazon. The rest is much cheaper than NewEgg. I built a sample rig last night, with Amazon I'd be saving a little over $100. Even if counted the upcoming tax rate, it's still cheaper.

An alternative would be to use the InvisibleHand browser addon, which isn't limited to only Amazon.

Sweet! Thanks buddy.

Edit: Holy crap this is amazing. It doesn't seem to work on NewEgg though?

It doesn't work with most sites that specialise in products like PC parts etc. well that I've found anyway.  Still awesome.

Asus Nvidia GeForce GTX 670 4GB DirectCU II 4096MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card '3 Year Warranty'£199.99 @ OCUK **FREE SHIPPING**


Can anyone tell me if it is worth getting a couple of these and run them in SLi?

I know there's an argument that it isn't worth it over the 2GB version, but since they're going that cheap?

I currently run a 1GB GTX570.


Is there any alternatives for the same price as two of these?
