So, I don't game on my pc anymore and just use it for work.
I have a 4850x2 2GB card that I paid 319.99 for a few months back.
My friend has a 7600gt that is 2 years old and will totally suit my needs, his was 120 retail 2 years ago.
You guys think it'd be an even trade for both parities involved if we did my 4850x2 gb for his 7600gt + 200 cash? |

Thats fair since its your friend.
If it was like an online trade I would ask for just a bit more cash... like 225-250.
That really is a beast of card. |

Yes, it is VERY nice card.
However, now that the GT300 line and 5870 etc are coming out....it's value has dropped significantly.
The way I see it, is I won't lose ANY performance at all from downgrading my video card. However, with the 200 cash....I can upgrade my hard drives to better ones and get a performance boost. |

It's 1 card, not 2.
The 4850x2 2GB, it has 2 GPU's and is cross-fire in a single card solution. |

| Seems like a pretty fair trade. |

| It's more than a fair trade, it's a good deal in your favor. |

| Honestly, if you only play SC or dont game at all, I would do a deal just like this. When SC2 comes out (or any game you *must* play), just get a new card. |

| you're kind of getting ripped off, but it doesn't really matter since he's your friend and you don't really need that card anyways. |

If you plan on spending all of the $200, you might as well go for like a 1.5 TB HDD + some RAM

| I have 8gb of ram already, lol. I don't really need *that* much space, but I want fast as fuck hard drives. Any recommendations for an SSD? |

He wants some performance drives and Caviar blacks in RAID are going to give it to him. |

Yup! My Q6600 @ 4.0ghz on air is being bottle necked by shitty hard drives, I will no longer stand for it!

Im waiting for sata 3.0 before i think of fixing that!
Every comp out there feels HD bottlenecked... unless you can afford a high class SSD RAID setup. |
