Newegg has the Leadtek 6800 GT if anyone is interested Link

Hmm $55 mark-up. At least its in stock I guess.

I despise the looks of the Leadtek HSFs. I think they look terrible, but I'm sure they are good at cooling.

If only it was 1-slot

When I first saw that it was at $435.. It changed to $455 as I looked, then was gone when I went back. LOL

That thing better hit ultra extreme speed easy or that huge cooler is a waste. No need to start in with the arguments about it at least lowering the temps either, because mine are fine with the stock reference cooler, even@BFG ULTRA OC speed.

i wanted to go with one of those for the cooling solution.. it looks beastly. But hitting 420/1.2 on my bfg is definently good enough, especialy if carmack is right about the whole overclocking thing with doom3, and how much its going to effect the game

I wonder how loud its gonna be.

Its fugly. No way I'd put that in my case.

Disagree. It has a big copper HS, and I'm seldom looking in my case while gaming.

It's probably worth the $55 just to deal with newegg, where if they say it's in stock, it's in stock. Unlike say, FuturePowerPC where they say it's in stock and not after you've ordered?

We'll see if Buyxtreme is any more honorable today, or whether they think I'd want to pay $33 for same day ship overnight on something I can't get that day.

I got mine today...not loud at all. It's a big sucker that is for sure!

on the other hand, a gt with an ultra cooler makes it an even better value for OCers

Way too much, waiting until the supply-side catches up with the demand.

Is that cooler really copper or just copper colored?
