Should come to $352.79 before shipping, dunno if/or how much that is...
I haven't ordered yet, but it should work fine. Not sure when they are coming in, but Buy.com I think is pretty reliable about that sort of thing

how reputable is buy.com?
Do the GTs use really bad ram compared to the ultras? I can solder on more caps, add the 2nd power connector, and do any volt mods required, but if the NS isn't as low I don't think I'll want it.

gah, a rating of 2. I'm not so sure I trust them now.
EDIT: The guys at ocforums have good things to say about them though, I guess I'll buy this one too to go with the x800 XT PE, it should be a fun comparison.

I buy from them monthly, they are like Amazon. Choose the free shipping. Dont be a sucker for their other service. I still get the stuff shipped 2 day for free.

Buy.com is owned and operated by either Ingram Micro or Tech Data, I forget which. But they are the #1 and #2 largest distributors in the world of computer equipment.

too bad the jaton is out of stock. The other one has risen by 100$ too.
Well, I pre-ordered the jaton 256M one. 280$ was too good of a price to pass up. Hope fully it will get here by the time DFI releases their board.

it was a GT when I ordered it. I'm gonna raise hell if its not a GT when it arrives!
copy/paste of my invoice:
"10374875 Jaton NVidia GeForce 6800 GT 256DDR VGA/TV/DVI/AGP8X 1 $287.99"

mabe not, but if you post a bunch of bad stuff about them and let them know then they might soften up.

They basicly said they won't honor my order unless Jaton makes a 6800GT for the price I already paid. I tried emailing them and I only got an automated response, they don't have real humans like Newegg.

If they have a support number try calling that.

They have no phone numbers listed. They do have a toll number for cell phone support. (WTF? How could someone not understand how to use a cell phone and still call the number?)

I ordered a 6800GT, then received a 6800NU from buy.com.
Avoid them at all costs!
I'm gonna be sending this to every forum I visit unless buy.com decides to accept my RMA and give me the correct card.
