trt740, this is the second thread I've seen you crap on, so just call it a day will ya?

Anyway, that's pretty nice that Dell allows you to order it when it's out of stock. This last week trying to order it was awful... anyway, at least people can buy it now and rest in peace, while saving some cash!

well at that price you could sell both at retail and still make 20.00 a piece the price on the gt won't go down near Christmas, there won't be any in stock any place. Thx Zek ordered two should help me pay for my GTX. Retail for those are 269.00 and you won't see a retail price anytime soon. It is just like the G0 quads they never sold at retail unless you count day one, even today they are 20.00 to 30.00 over the Intel retail price. They will never go down before Xmass and even when the 8800 gts 512mb comes out they will be even more popular because the 8800 gts 512mb is really not much better but will cost more make the 8800 gt even more popular. Also if they do go down in price just cancel the order. It's a Win WIN!!!! for the record I'm selling theses bad boys. 2 weeks before Xmass is perfect.

I wouldn't call this crapping on a thread. Might be a good Idea to read a entire post before you say something. Since I thanked Zek and ordered two of these myself your not making sense. Also the other thread was mine and I think someone else crapped on the thread wow!!!! I'm wondering might someone have two techpowerup accounts humm

I bought one, I will be sending my HD2900 back, then after christmass I will order one of the Dual 3870s, and return the 8800. Thats gives me $100 back now and I will pay in 100-200 more for Crossfire in a matx computer later. :]

Oh shut up the pound is worth two dollars :p.

NO! I'm just saying that that's prolly why it cost bloody 365 bucks!!!
It was all I could get my hands on!!! :)

Actually the funny part is you dont see too many "real" Nvidias here in Canada, so I'm really surprised I found one.
