ATI X800 XT PE $459.51

[Kung Lau]

Searching for decent deals on the X800 Pro, I ran across this. This is below MSRP I believe for the XT PE.

:Q

 

[RADON]

Nice find.

 

[NJDevil]

thanks, ordered one

 

[deldd]

Usually ships in 1 to 2 weeks. That could be interesting.

 

[whistleclient]

what's difference between x800 xt and x800 xt platinum edition?

 

[NJDevil]

the PE is clocked a bit higher, i think 520 instead of 500 mhz. The memory is clocked higher too I think, over 1100.

Did you get a order confirmation/ship date? I know today is Sunday, but I'm just curious.

 

[mattg1981]

x800 xt = 500/500 core/clock
x800 xt pe = 520/560 core/clock

Think of coming into work at CDW on Monday morning and seeing how many you got to come up with in a week

 

[edmundoab]

ship within 1 to 2 weeks.. hmm..
but its definately a good price considering its current availability.

Hi,
We just received information from ATI that the video card you have ordered
will be extremely delayed for many more months. At this time we do not
anticipate receiving any of these into stock until possibly next year. We
are told other vendors may start receiving them sooner but we are not sure
if that is correct. At this point our company has cancelled all orders that
were placed through us since we cannot fulfill at this time. We apologize
for any inconvenience.
Thanks,
Missy

LOL: "Our team of purchasing specialists is actively searching for the item

Umm, yeah. I'm sure they're looking *hard*. Too bad they don't have stock.

 

[imported_theEman]

Crazy good deal though!

 

[Auxano]

I have placed orders for this card at CDW twice.

I feel your pain. I love :disgust: getting that kind of email then see it listed a week later!

 

[user1234]

sales rep called missy ?!?!

This whole thread is just a replay of exactly the same thing which happened so many times over the last few months. It's basically clueless people thinkg they hit the jackpot. Don't hold your breath on getting this ever. And stop posting backorders as hot deals.

 

[Mikeman101]

Wasn't the rumor that the X800XT-PE had 16 pipelines where as the X800XT was being limited to 12 pipelines to lower production costs.

 

[Auxano]

Found this X800Pro APG 8x for $394.99. They say it is in stock

800 pro

X800 XT for $489.99

X800 PE for $629.99

 

[user1234]

Who is this guy/girl/thing ? X800 pro sells for $350 usually at outpost, and sometimes for $329. It's not a hot deal at $400 which is msrp and you could get better vid cards for this price.

 

[CorporationX]

lotta $

 

[Rio Rebel]

Stop crapping, you jackass.

People like you ruin the forum - folks don't want to post because they might get harassed for it.

[user1234]

Posting a non-deal here is crapping

 

[NJDevil]

just emailed the contact guy that I got and its backordered ... it still says 1-2 weeks on the site. If it doesn't ship in 2-3 weeks, i'm canceling.

 

[imported_theEman]

Is this an XT or an XT PE? The website says XT PE and XT...
