Hey all...should I go for this deal? The product is usually $80 but with rebates it ends up at $40. I can get a 1 year extended warranty for $13. So I ask this:

Is this board decent? Does it just use Nvidia components, or is it an Nvidia made by chaintech?

Will this card run with my mobo?

GA-7ZMMH

Are chaintech good cards for the price? Help me out guys...there's only six days left on this deal and it's while supplies last...
 
5200 will not suffice a hardcore gamer. The cards made by chaintech, the chipsets made by nvidia. I had this card at one time, very dissapointed. If you have an agp port it will work with your board.
 
Dude...all I want to do is run Diablo 2 and MAYBE cs...I want to know if the board crashes lots or has any major malfunctions. As to it's functionality...I don't need it to Run doom3 for god's sake...I'm on a 1000 DURON...Hahah...
 
I hope so. Just Diablo 2 and counterstrike...I NEED to get in on those games...I know I know...they're older...but my buddies play d2 constantly...and I really want to get in on it. Any more comments? Keep em coming...the sale ends SOON!
 
No, don't go Chaintech..... THEY SUK ASS!!!

Here, try this card. It is better.

It is a bit more, but is much better card (for the future), costs a bit more, but 1 year warranty is only 6.99, and for $70 for a 5500 128MB card, that is great. + ETT is a small company, but I know they are good!

ALSO, look at the kickass cooling on this thing, you could really overclock this nicely. Compare the cooling to that Chaincrap card, and think carefully. Otherwise, go with this card.

This is a Ti card, and beats that Chaincrap in most things, plus can be overclocked much better.
 
Okay...I've settled for this one.

XFX GeForce MX 4000 / 64MB DDR / AGP 8X / VGA / TV Out / Video Card

This thing isn't great, but it's dirt cheap, ($67) it comes with 40 dollars in rebates, it has a 2 year warranty (The chaintech only had a one month) and it doesn't have a fan...just a heatsink, so it won't break as quickly.
