So who had their 8800GT overnighted?

Its only $17 at frys. Well worth it for the extra $5 to $10 depending if you decided ground or 2 day at first.

I came this close to doing overnight instead of 2-day air at Frys for my pair of GT 512's, but decided I could live the extra day for the $7 difference. I'm still darn tempted to call in and change to overnight before it ships later today, though!

I would do it if you really have to have them now! I always wondered how much same day shipping at frys would cost if they offered it! There shipping prices are amazing for high speed shipping compared to other retailers!

I'm practically tortured by the wait... ya know, I think I'm gonna call and see if it can be switched still. I *REALLY* want them now 🙂.

EDIT: Called to check, it's still able to be changed but it would put me at the back of the pre-order line if I changed anything on the order, meaning mine wouldn't likely ship today if I did so, making it a moot point. It's about to ship within a couple of hours anyway, so... 2-day for me.

I would be tortured by the wait too because a pair of 512's will rock when SLI works in Crysis!

Does it not currently? If that's the case I feel much better about my 7900GTO SLI setup.

I don't think so but someone has claimed that got it working somehow.
 
NewEgg UPS Ground = same as overnight when you live in Los Angeles, should be here in a couple of hours.

Too bad about the CA sales tax!!
