I ordered mine around 11a.m. CST I believe and did the pin processing around 12p.m. CST and I haven't heard anything back from them either way.

I ordered from buy.com and ncix.com.
The buy.com ws msi and the ncix was evga.. I had to cancel the msi order when I realized ncix had them in stock and now I find out they just chose not to update their inventory!!!!! argh...
Evga is selling them directly, but at the retail prices.
$289 for the most expensive version.. ouch!
Stock at Scan, not too cheap though.

Well I guess I was one of the lucky ones, just got my tracking number! :up:
I think I got lucky as I used Paypal instead of a CC, I think that sped things up considerably.
so if i were to buy an evga GT atm, and nvidea released the 8900's within 90 days, i'd be able to send the GT back and get one of the 8900's for the price difference?
Did you guys that got an order status update receive a message via email or did you have to check your account at the website?

I ordered two from here after cancelling my non-shipped NCIX order that I was told would take a few days just to process, let alone send when it was in stock. I was told over the phone they should be receiving them tomorrow morning, if not tonight, for shipment. $230 for the stock-clock eVGA each, plus $10 2-day air for both = $470 total for both shipped 2-day air. From what I could find with google, it includes Enemy Territory: Quake Wars, still.
EDIT: To their credit, NCIX's customer service was very friendly and responsive, despite being unable to help. I would definitely order again from them on a different occasion.
I don't understand the logic of all this?....if you can buy a 512MB version of the GT which has been proven faster the 320MB/320bit GTS version and faster then the 640MB version...then WHY would anyone buy a new GTS card?
Why make the GT faster then the GTS?....it's illogical, surely the smart buyer is gonna avoid the GTS now, or dump his old GTS and buy the new GT.
The superclocked cards show alot of promise and headroom.
Ordered Mine from NCIXUS at 12:04 Eastern and its shipping today:up:
I see the EVGA 8800GT SSC version is not out yet, so I rather wait for couple of more days until they release it. Those of you who didn't buy one yet.... wait for this one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is only the superclocked edition at newegg. Not good enough :P
what cooler do you guys think will be best?
HR-03/Plus?
VF900?
Lame... mine was 11:49am Eastern and didn't even get past the first 3 steps by 4:00pm-ish, so I cancelled. Went with these http://shop3.outpost.com/product/5434329 , since I was told mine wouldn't go through for a few days or more :down: . Fry's tells me my order should ship tonight.
The ThermalRight HR-03 Plus is 8800GTS/GTX specific and won't fit. The original or Revision A versions should.
For air-cooling you need something compatible with 8600GTS from the reviews out already, for water-cooling there are no compatible full-cover blocks yet but die-only blocks like the Fuzion GFX or MCW60 will be fine.
