Links to the 8800GTX and 8800GTS cards on Newegg

[CurseTheSky]

For some reason, when I went to buy my 8800GTX today, I couldn't find links to any of the new cards on Newegg. The only way I could browse to the pages containing the cards was to open their video card category, and hope the card I wanted popped up on the "advertised deal" bar, above the usual displayed products. It was a bit frustraing, since every search for "8800," "8800GTX," and "8800GTS" turned up nothing. Browsing through each manufacturer's products didn't show the new additions, nor did looking through "new products" in the video card section. Either I missed something, or Newegg made it nearly impossible to find the highly-anticipated additions to their arsenal.

So, assuming (you know what they say...) that I'm not a complete idiot, and finding links to these cards CAN be a pain, here are the links to save you some time. I've also listed the software and other sweeteners that come with the cards, to help you make your decision:

eVGA 8800GTX - $659.99 (Dark Messiah of Might and Magic)
eVGA 8800GTS - $499.99 (Dark Messiah of Might and Magic)

XFX 8800GTX - $659.99 (No sweeteners)
XFX 8800GTS - $499.99 (No sweeteners)

BFG 8800GTX - $659.99 (BFG T-Shirt and Teflon Pads(?))
BFG 8800GTS - $499.99 (BFG T-Shirt and Teflon Pads(?))

Gigabyte 8800GTX - $669.99 (Civilization IV)
Gigabyte 8800GTS - $499.99 (Civilization IV)

PNY 8800GTX - $659.99 (No sweeteners)
PNY 8800GTS - $499.99 (No sweeteners)

I'm not sure why they don't list them on the normal product-viewing pages... there has to be at least handful of people out there that think the cards still aren't available on Newegg because of this. Hopefully someone finds this useful, just incase you were one of those people.

I purchased the eVGA 8800GTX, mainly because of eVGA's step-up program, and warranty which does not void due to overclocking. Since all of the cards appeared to be clocked the same from the factory, it's really a matter of who has the best warranty, and who has the best software bundle.

I'm not buying but I did have trouble finding them for viewing pleasure. TY

The promo page lists them all

they have a link to it on the front pages, middle of the right ad bar.

Wow, never knew that. Still, you'd think they'd incorporate them right into the normal product search features ASAP. There has to be other people out there wondering why they can't find these when they search for "8800GTX."

Good to know though, thank you.

i currently have 7 days left on my step-up...i have a 7900GT KO (256mb) and i was thinking about stepping up to an 8800GTS or GTX. i can't decide. i have the cash, but my dad keeps asking why i need a new card.

Based on stock levels anyone here think the GTS is going to quickly retreat to around $399? Wonder when we will have newegg's Sapphire version special.

Then again, as you can all see from my sig, I just want a 650i board and e6300 before I do anything else.

I found them yesterday while searching for "8800gtx" although "8800" returned nothing but garbage products that I didn't want .

i'll pass.I'll hang to my x1900 xt till a dies-shrink of this or R600 comes out.And which ever performs better.
Hopefully we won't have a R520 repeat from ATI's side.
