Ends at 10AM PDT. Newegg has the Sapphire 100292DDR3L Radeon HD 5450 1GB 64-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready Low Profile Ready Video Card for $40 - $15 rebate [Exp 3/31] = $25 with free shipping. Features HDMI, D-SUB, and DVI ports, 80 stream processing units and a 650MHz core clock speed.
$25
As long as gaming is not in the plans, this card is great for HTPC or just a low-power multi-monitor setup. Also should give a nice performance boost for older PCs with really crappy integrated graphics. But for sure, much older, or very undemanding games need only apply with this one.
don't count on the rebate; mine never came
I've never gotten a rebate from Sapphire. Good price for a fanless HTPC card. Its incredible how noisy fans are on cheap cards. Non-flash gaming is a no-no.
Wait, so I can or can't use this for gaming? Can someone plese clarify? I think I need a 3rd person to confirm.
#4 - I would say define the type and level of gaming you're considering as it depends on what you intend to reach.
you can play fairly old games on 1280x or lower res monitors.
#3, I got my rebate from Sapphire.
