    Hi,

    I'm trying to upgrade my 260m to a 460m.

    After calling Dell, they said the piece was 614$ !!

    After agruiing with the rep, he told me that if I give him a proof that someone else bought from them at a lower price, he would agreed to match that price.

    I saw on the net peoples that had it for 384,00$.

    Anyone can help me ?

    Also, is it the 1.5 or the 1 gig DDr5 version of the card ? Does anyone got th stats ?

    Thanks.

    i really can't see how someone in their right mind could ask you 614$ for a 460m :(

    I suggest you call another rep then. That guy is a jerk @_@
    With that price I could buy a Dell HD6970M

    Thanks T-Man.

    I'll see what I can do with this.

    I'm just not sure the REP name can serve as a proof.

    My rep asked me for # of the contract DELL sent you via email.

    Somebody else got an idea ?
