    9800 GX2 best 'bundles'

    Well i'm about to get me an 9800 GX2. One frustrating thing is never being able to get any information on wether or not there is a bundled game included in the box.
    This is not a critisism of Scan as every retailer just lists the same specs / contents which look as thou they are copied and pasted from the manf* webistes.

    For me this could be a deal breaker or not to know if a worthwhile game was included as specs are all the same at the mo. I know some manf* have better aftersales and that matters most for alot of people, but price is usually key for me

    For example the 'Point of View' retail box comes with 'Frontlines: Fuels of War' (according to POV website), which is on sale relativley cheap at another well know E-tailer. This is the only bundle I know the contents of at the moment.

    So although I may be tempted to buy from Scan as their my preferred retailer, as I don't know if theres any added value (eg games) in different retail boxes, i'm probably gonna go elsewhere for the cheapest deal I can get which is 'PNY' retail box @ £344.99 delivered.

    I'll let you know what the bundle was !!!!!!!!
