I found this while doing some searching, don't know if it's hot or not. But I know eVGA is supposed to be good for overclocking and the same cad is $429 at newegg:

What's with the 'July 4, 2004 Special Promotion' banner at the top of all their web pages?? Makes you think nobody is home.

Is there anyway to tell whether the card's in stock?

 

[deldd]

Well I called them and sent emails, they responded quickly. My order will be processed today.

Here is their phone number: (877)542-3792


They just lowered the price $1 to $388. They charged me the lower price as well, cool.

 

[deldd]

Well, I called them again and they said my order will ship today and they have them in stock.

They sen my package out today using fedex saver shipping. Ordered last night got the tracking number today. I checked out some of their other prices and they seem to be a bit cheaper than most online vendors.

I'll let you guys know when I get it.

I looked on Pricewatch and found a couple online stores selling the same card for lower prices.

Z-buy - $376
(ResellerRatings.com score: 8.37)

Monarchcomputer - $380
(ResellerRatings.com score: 9.26)

Both places have reasonable shipping prices and are on the East Coast (no tax for CA residents). I finally got fed up on waiting for Provantage to get stock from PNY and ordered an eVGA card from Monarch.

$376 is a great deal the other one is about the same with shipping.

I finally got my GT and the surprise wa that it included FarCry. It was suppossed to include Command and Conquer, but was bundled with FarCry Also includes DVI to VGA adapter for dual monitor support, and the rest of the stuff you get.

About the FarCry: I checked eVGA's website, they are bundling FarCry with every GT, so the stores that say Command and Conquer are wrong.

I also have noticed that the GT's are becoming cheaper, probably the initial Doom effect is wearing off and the fact that the cards aren't so rare anymore.
