    I just got my new BFG GTX 260 video card from newegg.com and they sent me the 192 version instead of the 216. Is it worth going through all the hassle and waiting a week or two to get it replaced or is the 5-10 FPS not worth it...

    Thanks!

    If they sent you the wrong card, then yes it's worth the effort to get the right one, especially if the one you received is of lower value. However, if you have more questions about it, please post over at our sister site, DTR (DesktopReview.com). Than you.
