Well, I did some more testing. Even though the drivers reported that the video card bios version was the same as the new one released from Guillemot, I downloaded powerstrip and its reporting 220MHZ core and 365MHz memory.
ROCK ON.
DaveNCheez: Call them and REQUEST that they contact the LEAD processing lady at Ingram Micro. Tell them this is what the other CSR told you (bluff a little here) to do if it still didn't come... (do this during Office Hours)

Lore: yeah I can't believe after the 12 people I talked too it wasn't shipped today, and worse they didn't even email me. One person emailed me (lady who reinstated the order and gave me $25 she's awesome) and told me she'd check into it personally tomorrow morning but it kinda makes me mad none of the people that told me they'd email me later did.....
I guess Ill be calling tomorrow

Well mine still shows Backorderd on the Tracking on their website..This is starting to piss me off. They better ship it out soon.

Ok, more benchmarks........
Memory maxed out at 402 Mhz, anything higher & I start getting noise on the screen in Quake 3. At 402 it's clean.
I over-clocked the core at 230 Mhz & it seems to be working great at that speed so far.
I've been able to overclock my 700 Mhz Athlon to 800 Mhz (114 Bus), where I was limited to 750 Mhz with my old TNT-1
I'm still at 2x AGP, and haven't finished tweaking everything yet, but I'm getting 98 FPS in Quake 3 @ 1024x768 in 32 bit color, HQ, with everything set to max.
That's better than my old TNT-1 (at 115 Mhz core & memory) in 16 bit at 640x480.

Nutzo:
I'm assuming you haven't bothered re-applying the heatsinks?
Do you have any way of taking a picture/scanning the card so we can see it in all its glory? (Well, I want to see it)

Check out the Anandtech review, they have a good picture. Looks just like mine.

Don't think I'll try & up the core over 230 for now, it doesn't really help much since the card is memory limited, even at 402

I was assured that my order has been processed two days ago by Jeff Bridges (Manager) and still have no confirmation or tracking number nor any match by ref number on UPS.

I wouldn't worry about the confirmation email - I never got one either. However, the lack of a UPS tracking number (Through their track by reference) is sketchy.
Call them up - DEMAND that they get in touch with IM, and then have them verify that your order was indeed shipped.

I never got anything but the words " shipped " from the web page. No referance#, tracking#, e-mail, but I got a card !
Just got off the phone with a guy from onvia. He said
Yes "this order is shipping now, you should get it sometime next week"
I said "so mine is shipping now? today?"
he replies "I don't know if this one has shipped but I can garuntee all orders will be shipped out and you will have your card by Next Friday"
Kinda odd. He seemed really confident while the rest said not for a while. He seems to think they are shipping many out in the next few days and it will be on my door by next Friday. Yet he was kinda confusing on if mine was in the process of shipping today, or if he just meant they are working on all of them...
either way, this is good news for people who ordered near mine and haven't recieved anything (even if it contradicts what some others said)
he goes "did you call earlier" and I was like yeah I guess they add the calls to your order sheet. I hope he wasn't just telling me all this so I'd stop calling

Dave,
They log every call in their system. I called about my cpu that was on backorder and they accidently cancelled it. When I found out that what had happened, I called back a week later to change it back. They had a log of my previous call.

really? crazy.
Btw anyone know what the speed difference of the card is on 2x AGP and 4xAGP
like most I still have a BX board and am curious as to what the perfromance difference is if any.

I ordered mine on May 27th. Called Wed. They said that mine would ship on Thursday from CA. I called today to make sure it had shipped. Now they say it will ship today from Tennessee. I don't dare call tomorrow!!
I'm late as hell to this one
BTW though, if this can still be ordered, for that price, can someone post the link for the original post with the explanation on the deal?
Thx in advance.

I emailed them since I ahve not recieved a tracking number yet, and they said Jennifer was mistaken about mine being sent out 2 days ago, and it wont be sent out til Mon. or Tues. next week.
I e-mailed them yesterday. This morning I had a response saying it had shipped, and included a UPS tracking number. The tracking number shows it did ship from a IL warehouse.
The Onvia web page still shows backordered...

Kick ass--I thought i would call after DaveNcheez's post. It was shiped on the 28th out of CA. UPS has a delevery date of 7/6 thurs. NICE. I have a system all built and ready to go. This card is the last part i needed. Looks like next weekend ill get to finaly play some of the great games that have been coming out. thanks brothers
DaveNCheez:
Isn't that what they've been telling you all along, though? Are you sure that it really shipped this time? Not to worry you or anything, but I don't want to see you getting the scroogie again.

this is cool
this is cool
Well mine finally shipped out tonight so i should have it sometime this week. Thank goodness this is finally done.

well...I got mine today. I tried to overclock, but the sliders go only upto 100Mhz???? What is up with that?? Is everyone with Win2k having the saving problem? My card from Onvia came with 2.15.01.07 (the newer BIOS version)...so I really don't need to update the BIOS. The card is excellent, but I would like to know why I have this weird thing going on...
