Sorry i was joking the card has been out for only a couple of months. You missed the wink. 2 of those babies will run you $1,000.
 
About to say it was the 6xxx series back then as I was REALLY wanting one... Then when the 7xxx came out I finaly got a 6600GT... Anyways.... It is only worth that much if someone is willing to pay for it IMO

So the grand total to build this yourself is Roughly $3,326 without tax and shipping.
so when you think about it.. it's not a bad deal to have someone build it for you for just over $100
 
sure you might save a buck or two somewhere else but thats why I put roughly before each number.. some of it I had a hard time finding too..

and if you wait a year you might even be able to build this machine at half the cost ;)
