    X850 availability

    If an XT is what I'd been waiting for, that would have been true. What do you think of my current video card? Oh, you DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS! Hey guys, this is fun, but I'm going to get some sleep. Big day tomorrow.

    X850 availability

    The impication is that I have been looking around with my eyes closed. In fact, searching for the retailer that has a card in stock, and is selling it for around MSRP, is a crap shoot. They come up here and there, in dribs and drabs. As fast as they appear, they are snatched up. Its not for...

    X850 availability

    Actually, it is. I don't think I'm cheap, and I know I'm not poor. I'll be getting a card when I can get a PE at or around MSRP. While I'm waiting I can take pleasure in the knowledge that although I make typos, at leat I can spell.

    X850 availability

    You know, Ackmed, the cards have been available all along, at high prices, from a few vendors. NewEgg was out of stock of most cards just a few days ago. The situation is changing, as I alluded to in my post. They are still not widely available, and are still priced high. You could have...

    X850 availability

    Like you'll notice the difference between 850 and 800? Like you'll notice the difference between....... Why not just stick to your GeForce2? Why don't you and Ackmed trade insults on the phone and push off the forums?

    X850 availability

    Had an interesting conversation with a retailer/etailer about ATI's *p* poor record of delivery of their high end cards. HE CLAIMS that ATI, although the 'manufacture' in Canada, have sub-assembly sites that were moved into the middle of the Indian Ocean by big waves. The message was that as...

    Is $300 a good price for the new X800 XT All in Wonder??

    Anyway Mackie; I guess you've gotten the idea, Everyone here thinks its a good deal. If you have the $300, and you want the AIW parts ( video inputs ) its great. You won't see much difference in performance between it and your 6800 GT. If you look around you'll see: 1. This card is about...

    ASUS A8N SLI DELUXE - PRICE AND AVAILABILITY

    Sho; I had to wait until the sugerplums stopped dancing in my son's head to get the MoBo out of his room. Its a revision 1.02 board. Where was the thread about rev 1.03 board?:confused: ( The revision number is printed on the mobo, near the PCI-E slots right where the "A8N-SLI DELUXE".)

    ASUS A8N SLI DELUXE - PRICE AND AVAILABILITY

    O.K. My dogs tried to scare off the FedEx driver, but he made the delivery any way. My son tore open the package like it was Christmas...... It sure is purdy!!!! It got cables, and wire thingies, and everything......except a PCI-E videocard. Now we wait for the video card manufacturers to...

    Got my Ewiz T.N. by email while I was out buying hay. Checked and it is on the FedEx truck. Because I live a couple hours away from them, It should be here before Santa! Life is good....I hope this MoBo is!

    ASUS A8N SLI DELUXE - PRICE AND AVAILABILITY

    Hey Sho; Ewiz's website says they send out tracking numbers, by email, at 6:30 p.m. the day the item is shipped. They're in Silicon Valley, so your message, and hopefully mine, will go out in about a hour and a half. For those of you in the Eastern Time zone, that's going to be 9:30...

    ASUS A8N SLI DELUXE - PRICE AND AVAILABILITY

    I was just on the phone with a live person at EWIZ. It said that they have 'lots of them.' Sounded sort of like Dustin Hoffman in "Rainman." Even though the total was $227.70; $200.85 for the board, $10.28 for Shipping, and $16.57 for California State sales tax, they say it will be...

    ASUS A8N SLI DELUXE - PRICE AND AVAILABILITY

    Just FYI, UnitedMicro now lists the A8N as 'due 12/18/2004' and up to $239. Talked to them and although my $213 purchase will be honored, they don't have the board to send me. I could cancel, but since there aren't any baords out there until next week, I might as well wait. There's a big...

    *** Official ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe (nForce4) Thread ***

    Yep; just off the phone with a human being at UnitedMicro. They now say they won't have the boards til next week. Hunted around their website for the statement about date. The listing has been changed to reflect 'due date' of 12/18/2004 and oh yeah, the price is up to $239.00! I suppose I...

    Hey eddo 26, Time to get a few hours sleep before I check on my order. Too bad I didn't check the forum Wednesday; could have saved a few dollars.

    *** Official ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe (nForce4) Thread ***

    Well, not that its as good as MSRP, but UnitedMicro.com is selling the Asus A8N-SLI DELUXE, selling not back ordering, for $213 plus $13 UPS shipping. I'll have to call them in the morning to see if they've sent it out! Better than $450 at PB Tech ( even in New Zealand dollars ).

    VIA K8T890 vs. NVIDIA nForce4 chipset

    O.K. this will be interesting. I'm doing a MAJOR upgrade of my kids confuser; MoBo, Proc, RAM, and Videocard. We've settled on Socket 939 and PCI-E so we're looking for one of the new boards. There is one issue; my son would prefer the Radeon X800 XT videocard. It looks like the nFOrce4...
