For Those Waiting on Gateway X800 XT

[imported_michaelpatrick33]

Just to add here on July 20th Gateway called me and told me expected arrival date is now August 10. I ordered June 26. LOL. Since I won't have my other components until then that is fine by me for the price. We will see. If it moved back to the end of August then I will cancel the order.

I am waiting for the 939 MSI Nforce3 board to go with my FX-53 and Koolance. God, I can't wait

The huge shortage really really stinks for alot of people that bought them. I would go insane if I had to wait that long for the card, jeez. Good thing I get mine friday

 

[Safeway]

How do you get it Friday, since you begged the question. And, I have been waiting a month and a half. Sucks. I should get mine between now and next Wednesday...

I <3 ebay. $533, not a bad price for getting it so early. I really am still angry with both companies. Reminds me of the episode of family guy where peter wants to buy the sports car with the drawing of an engine and a cardboard steering wheel, just because it was nice. We are all to familiar with "drawings",paper launches, around here.

I had another topic in the video section when I bought it. Ill put up benchmarks and screenshots for everyone.
System:
Skt. 939 fx-53
x800xt
a8v deluxe mobo
1 GB OCZ 3700EB
160GB Sata seagate drive
470w Enermax PSU
Watercooling on cpu and gpu.
gigaworks s750 speakers
viewsonic p95f+B monitor

I can't wait to burn it in then O'C the machine and see what kinda results I get.
