this is crazy i would kill for $200 bucks right now
really getting ready for these 9 series cards aren't they?
thats insanity !
wow! i'd love to get one of these, but wallet tells me the gt is enough for now :(
I just got a BFG for $225 after rebate and I thought that was crazy, this would be $191 shipped for me after tax, shipping and rebate.
odd because they performs almost just as well, right?Quote:

could it be a mistake? the gt goes for 190 w/o rebate on their site :confused:
Just ordered it. Should be here the 17th.
Now I'll have to see how far I can OC this badboy on stock cooling. I can't afford aftermarket since I need a new 4 gig mem kit.
EDIT:
I know a lot of people are waiting up for the 9xxx series cards, but I think this is a great deal considering its incredibly fast and two of these in SLI would very well compete with the new cards and might come in at a slightly better price. 180 (after rebate and shipping) is incredible.
Now what do i do w/ my x1900xtx?
I ordered it, but it's probably a pricing mistake.
I wouldn't be surprised to see Tiger kill this and not ship any, they're not exactly an honorable company. We'll be lucky to EVER see that MIR again.
Who knows though, if it does go through i got a hell of a deal.
Dammit I was thinking of getting a Zotac or Palit 9600gt with the hdmi/dataport for my second system but this works out to be the same price!
Might have to bite...
Looks like a pricing error-
"We're sorry, the product you have searched for is no longer available for sale."
Let's hope that TD has better CS than Buy.com and still honor this deal...
I tried to buy 2... I hate tiger direct and buy.com.
damn
was gonna order it but no longer available lol
figured out a way to buy stuff from US
http://www.priceusa.com.au/
:)
Tiger has made good on price mistakes before. Sometimes doing overnight shipping gets it out the door quickly. :D Good luck to those who got in on the deal. Hopefully no e-mail cancellations in your future. :up:
I'm crossing my fingers on this one.
I saw an EVGA 780i mobo for 27 dollars, no joke. I should have ordered it, but waited till the morning and it was 245.99. 89% off. It was from a different site though: http://www.priceguidenetwork.com/
I think they made good on the pricing of this one. Glad I went ahead and did it.

I was going to order 2 but I didn't want my wife to see my going to get my wallet and I couldn't remember my credit card number.
Nice... Mine shipped as well.Quote:

Ya it's been dead since midnight-ish.
If you used GCO you may be out of luck, as those orders were apparently processed later. They are shipping their entire stock, so the earlier you ordered the better your chances.
Thats my understanding, from what i've seen on other forums. I ordered just before 11pm cst with their billing and mine shipped, anything processed before midnightish seems to be going out. Paypal & GCO orders are delayed a bit for processing, so you might miss the stock.
TD will most likely honor the price however, if you hold out for them to come back in stock. Your order will just sit at "backordered".
Mine shipped too!
I am overjoyed!
:rofl: :clap: cheers for wifes!Quote:

Shipped from Illinois today!
should be here friday if i'm lucky, it's only 1 state over.
anyone else get a confirmed order, with a tracking number that WORKS?
I'm hoping it comes on Sat, I live in AZ, but that is probably highly unlikely.Quote:

Mine beat yours by 28 minutes, LordEC911! I'm a little closer, Louisiana, just out of New Orleans, but considering how slow things are going here, if you get yours before I get mine, I won't be surprised.
DES MOINES,
IA, US 03/13/2008 6:53 A.M. OUT FOR DELIVERY
Do I win?
:D
I ordered this Tuesday evening, selected 2 Day Shipping. TG stated it was shipped Wednesday morning, and somehow UPS decides that the delivery date is March 17th. Problem is, campus mail doesn't get delivered that day due to Spring Break so I don't get to even see it until March 25th. :down:
I selected the cheapest shipping and it will arrive here on the 18th, or so says the UPS site. Strange that your shipping is screwed up. They should reimburse you the shipping charges. Tough luck with that. At least you got the card.
Well let's see what happens tommorow, I called UPS and they admit they goofed up on something, so the package will be shipped overnight. I hope I'm not coming off as impatient, but I paid extra for 2 day shipping, so I should get what I paid for, correct?Quote:

Mine was here last night, but I'm busy re-routing wires & tubing ATM to bench it properly :mad:
My card just arrived. TD always gives faster shipping than I expected.
Just recieved an email from Tiger direct:
Please accept our apologies for the delay in shipping the XFX 8800 GTS
512MB video card you ordered. We expect to be able to ship the product
in approximately 7 days and you should receive it shortly thereafter.
As a thank you for waiting we will include Call of Duty 4 with your
video card when it ships. That’s an additional $50 value at no

Please accept our sincere apologies for the delay. We’re sure you
will enjoy your new XFX 8800 GTS 512MB video card as well as the
complimentary Call of Duty 4 video game.
We’re sorry but due to limited availability we have to limit

Thank you,

I am curious, what card is everyone replacing w/ the 8800gts?
I'm retiring my x1900xtx to my slow computer in hopes that I can run youtube fullscreen on it (my 2400hd pro does not like doing full screen videos from youtube, especially w 2 monitors attached).
Mine just arrived at the door.Quote:

I got my card around 7pm. I love it.
I didn't realize that company of heroes was an RTS lol. I usually play FPS unless its Warcraft / Starcarft & red alert. I thought this was a COD4 type game, lol. Its not bad though. I wouldn't buy it myself, but its a pretty good game.
Now i just need to download 3dmark06 and benchmark this badboy.
Thanks again LordCE911.
