I was ok to wait as long as the card was OOS everywhere. But now most people have them ready to sell, even the MSI card in stock in most places(Both Newegg and Zipzoomfly have it in stock). But when I see Dell selling their new XPS computers with 8800gt cards in them, theat the last straw...
The thread is still alive because some of us are still waiting to see if it actually ships. Its a game now. Just waiting until I can the card from some else for about the same price. Then I'll be happy to cancel this bleeping order.
I running at 709/1776/1000 and it seems to be rock steady. I did kick the fan up to 75%. I haven't seen the temp get above 62 degrees even while running 3dmark 2003.
I ran 3dmark 2003 and scored 35000+
I ran 3dmark 2001 and scored 34000+(I don't understand that one)
I'm going to run...
Ok I finally got the email, and a message on my voice mail, telling me that the order has been delayed until 12/29. My BFG card from bestbuy should arrive tomorrow. So here I sit waiting for another good BFG deals so I can cancel or, God help us all, Dell will finally ship the damn thing. So...
:D
I just bought the BFG one at Best Buy as well. I'm going to keep my order will Dell though. I just noticed that Newegg has update the status on their MSI card to say ETA 12/17 as well.
I'm stationed in Germany and I'm looking for a good set of computer speakers that are dual voltage. All the ones I see at Newegg and Circuit City/Best Buy are 110 only. Does anyone have any ideas?
Found this one at Dell while I was searching around:

I think this is the cheapest I've seen for the Asus card. Its says it ships in 1-2 weeks and it comes with "Company of Heroes" which is a great FPS game.
Great find. I picked up 2 of the MSI cards. $440 after taxes
I was waiting for the Evga card to get back in stock but the price keeps going up and up. I did read 2 reviews about this card which helped to make my decision:

This is still the cheapest I have found lately. And it is in stock. Does anyone have reviews on the MSI card?

I also found this deal at Amazon:
PNY XLR8 8800GT 512MB DDR3 Graphics Card $249.99 + free shipping
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000X...000XD1JJK&linkCode=asn
It is a pre-order but it will probably ship soon.
That's kinda how I'm feeling right now. I think I might wait and let the dust settle down a little bit. I also want to see how the AMD/ATI 3800, which should be out soon, is going to be priced. I think its going to be DirectX 10.1 compliant, which these 8800gt are not. Anyone out there...
