Keep my oder in at Buy.com for my 8800GT?

I placed an order for the PNY 8800GT from Buy.com with the 5% off deal and it's currently on backorder. Do you guys think I should cancel the order or wait this one out? I figure I can get ~$100 for my video card (think so?) and will only have another $130ish invested in the upgrade. Or, do I cancel and wait this one out for better cards? I don't see myself doing a ton of gaming over the next 6 months but will probably play through a few of them.

Thanks.
 
i would cancel... simply because you have no idea how long it will remain backordered for... and VERY soon both AMD and nVidia are releasing new cards (thus potentially lowering the GT's price...) And by very soon I mean about a week... and then some more in the following month after that.
 
For a PNY card I wouldn't hold out. You should be able to get one of the better brands for that price pretty shortly.
