I've had my eye on a 7970 for a while and it's about time to upgrade the gfx card in my computer as it's not playing the new games as well as I would like.  I know there are a lot of people here trying to sell GPU's since they are not really worth it to mine on anymore.

I'm looking for a card that has a transferable warranty and at least a couple of years left on it so that way in case they have been pushed hard, I'm not out oodles of money.

Can any one recommend any cards and about how much they would run me?  Since new ones are about $270 retail, can I expect 30% off?  50% off?

Thanks!

 I would think $270 is already about 30% off retail for a 7970.  If you can get a new one for that, go for it.

The 9series is around the corner, so we might be expecting a pricedrop in the 7series in the near future.
