Now the video card vendors are competing to see who got higher rebate amount ? $30 rebate for a $15 card ? Pass..

Agree, wait on $30 for a Galaxy with a fan? You'll probably be shipping it back to them for a dead or noisy fan before you see that rebate.

While I'd say get a 6450, those appear "price strong" all of a sudden, except on the 32-Bit cutback I see some AIB's a slipping in for those who are unaware! I'm starting to think holding out for good versions from quality AIB might be drying up. So if in the market find any decent deal on these low end entry card I'd grab it. There might be less and less over the next months. The best hope is that they respin/rename these 40Nm chips again and keep some going but that at least 2-3mo's off. I also don't believe there will be bunch future model (next gen 28Nm shrinks) being release by either side, while those that are won't see pricing down in the $20's. AMD APU’s are considered to overtake such basic options, while they promote the Hybrid C-F option with a couple of pricey 28Nm offering.
