mullered07wtf has wwII got to do with this thread, talk about flamebaiting :shadedshu.

if you wanna give out history lessons then maybe you should actually know what your talking about beforehand, yes hungary did side with germany in WWII though was reluctant in doing so, and only did on the presumption they wouldnt have to get involved in the actual war. In other words they were forced into it as many axis sides were by hitlers nazi regime. however hungary were secretly in talk with the US and great britain which were found out and they were subsequently occupied by german forces.

back on topic please as stated this has nothing to do with what happened in WWII and couldnt be any further from it.

Please don't accuse me of flamebaiting when the discussion has already veered into the area of geo-political discourse. Try reading the entire thread next time and not just the last few posts, okay?

One poster said that Hungary had never been given anything for free -- I showed how it has. Please take your fake-offense somewhere else, okay?

mdm-adphNot exactly -- you got southern Czechoslovakia for free when you sided with Hitler during WWII. :shadedshu

Which was taken away after WW2 (along with other territories populated by hungarians which we got back during ww2). Anyway after WW1, 2/3 of our country was taken away (millions of hungarians became other countries subject).
(We sided Hitler, because we had no choice, and he promised we get back our lost territories which were parts of historical Hungary.)

If you can't afford electronics where you're living, move -- you're in the EU, now, nothing's stopping you. Don't blame America for your problems -- pack your bags and move to Belgium or something. :toast:

I don't blame america, just questioned this action. Yeah, i'd like to move, but this is not so easy without money, but i hope i can do it next year (GBR maybe :) ).

mullered07back on topic please as stated this has nothing to do with what happened in WWII and couldnt be any further from it.

Sorry, my bad, back on topic :)

look you are flamebaiting regardless of weather "some one started it first" i have read the entire thread and no one else mentioned WWII why you felt the need to is just about beyond me, dont act like americas hands are clean of blood,

you showing or stating that hungary had joined forces with hitler and subsequently obtained southern Czechoslovakia isnt really relevant to this thread is that what they got for free? oh my bad :slap:

and im not offended by it, i just thought id point out what an idiotic post you made that has no relevancy to anything on tpu let alone this thread, if you cant think of somthing relating to the topic at hand then you really shouldnt be posting crap that has nothing to do with it as it just shows you have nothing else to offer.

ValdezI don't blame america, just questioned this action. Yeah, i'd like to move, but this is not so easy without money, but i hope i can do it next year (GBR maybe :) ).

Aye, it sucks that the deal's only for America -- trust me, it's probably got something more to do with tax regulations that any prejudice against the rest of the world, if they could offer it elsewhere they probably would. :D

It'd be great to move, trust me -- you'll have to put up with shit from people there in GBR or anywhere else, but just work hard and people will respect you. :toast:

[yak yak yak]

The only person getting offended here is you, mate. No matter what you say, a person isn't flamebaiting if the fire is already burning. Like I said, you obviously haven't read the rest of the thread.

(And I couldn't care less what America's hands are covered with, be it gold, shit, or the blood of newborns.)

I feel that the intent of BFG is
1. Gold price is down
2. Liabialty, as pointed out before,
3 P.R.
4. Gold price is really down.........

Next post with off topic in it will be deleted immediately!

Anyone notice it's just the OC cards?

Or was all of them OC cards?

DaMultaAnyone notice it's just the OC cards?

Or was all of them OC cards?

Aye, you're right -- considering they were OC and from BFG, they probably cost quite a bit back then, didn't they? No wondering BFG can afford to do this. :p

I know the/my BFG 7800GS OC Retail was a $200'ish card:slap:

I'm gonna check my registration and see what is involved to do the swap.

Seems toooooo tempting to pass on a "$50" 9800GT/OC :D

Woah:banghead:

Well it's not going too good so far:

Was the account created before or after 2/14/08? If it was before this date a
new account will need to be created. Unfortunately when our systems were
updated all previous accounts were lost.
A new account would need to be created

Well it seems to be legit:

Congrats! You have chosen to upgrade your current AGP card to a 9800 GT OC 512MB PCIe card for $50. Please verify your email address below and click submit. We will be sending you an email shortly with instructions on how to send your AGP card in for your upgrade. Please note that this process may take 24-48 hours

only thing is if you dont have a board that supports PCI E, might aswell go all out on a new system.

Well, yeah, but a 9800gt is far from a bad card. This makes it possible to move to pci-e very cheaply.

what i was getting at was anything less than a 9600\8800 anymore wouldnt be worth the time ya know.

I know, but those are exactly what you get out of this :p

I figure it this way,
I have the BFG 7800GS/OC just sitting as a backup for my nasty Bliss.
It's only been used a couple mo, but they appear to only be moving for around the $100 on ebay.

Since i already have a Q6700, the only thing needed to move PCI-e, is a M/B, and ram.
Ram is dirt cheap for DDR2.

A M/b, can be somewhat costly, just depends on which.

I'm really wanting a Black Pearl 3rd Gen.

On the GPU, well that starts in the $200 range for a nice card that would make a "big" improvement over my Bliss setup. As has been noted to me, atleast a 1oo% improvement to make it worth while.

The 9800GT OC that they offer would not really make a 100% improvement, BUT, yes it would be a noticable gain. The $150 "savings, would then be applied toward the M/B, and all that's left is far less that $100 for 2 gig's of good DDR2.

Only thing is the issue of haveing the awesome conroe865, supreme 2gig's of OCZ EL ram, and the killer Bliss:respect: just sitting......................... another Quad chip, and it's back in buisness.

So I think it just comes down to wheather I want to "sit" on an ageing AGP card, or "sit" on a PCI-e card for future use ;)

As for now i have no plans to move from a good setup, unless I get an awesome steal for a M/b, like when I got the EE chip, or even the Bliss[the owner had no idea it was so powerful]

:banghead: :banghead:

7800gs still go for that much on ebay!? :eek: You can get 9800gt's for that price!

theJesus7800gs still go for that much on ebay!? :eek: You can get 9800gt's for that price!

Yea I was suprised about that also.
Thing is, mine is the G71, and from the unit's I seen on there they are older G70's.
Mine clocked 500/1400 stable.

theJesusWell, yeah, but a 9800gt is far from a bad card. This makes it possible to move to pci-e very cheaply.

So it'd be worth $50?:D :o :confused: to sit on a PCI-e card just "waiting" to be used?

Well, if you're not gonna do anything with it, then of course not :p. But if you wanted to upgrade to PCI-E, it would be a great opportunity.
