That's right! I just ordered my X800XT from Dell. I figured they were hording up all of them so I should have thought of this weeks ago. But before you start picking up the phone and whipping out the plastic........
1. I already have a Dell PC which is one of the requirements cause it was an upgrade! This old PC has an AGP 4x so the salesman knew it was a legit upgrade.
2. He said it will ship from their wharehouse in 5 days and they are in stock. But really, are you surprized? Where do you think all 1 million of them went to when they 1st came out.......
3. Here's the killer...Total came out to $657! So if your willing to shell out some serious $$$ and you already have a Dell PC that can handle this card,or..ahem..your other rig, go for it.

Like I said before, I should have thought of this weeks ago. I would have had my rig built yesterday!

I dunno bout that. I've seen some of the prices on ebay. They go beyond $700.

Well if the Gateway order ever comes through I'll sell it just to make up the $200 over retail.

$657 is way too much for me... I'm still stuck on the fact the 9800 XT was $400 recently
