Boy oh boy is this a sweet deal. This eVGA GeForce 260 is one of the newer ones, revised with more stream processors than the original, already a powerhouse. It should handle the included (register to get it, bleh) Far Cry 2 with ease. It’s a totally solid card and at $250 it’s a steal, even with AMD competitive right now. If you’re in the market, I’d jump on this right now. If you’re not looking to spend quite that much, the older 260 is still a good deal at $210 and there’s a Radeon 4870 for just over $200, which is pretty amazing.
