Later it might be available in different flavours. All depending on what the 3rd party manufacturers decide.Quote:

Someone in CA go down there and get one so we know if they actually have them in stock.
getting ready to order when it is really available lol :p:
anyone ordered?
so its happen...
i jest talk with a big distributor in israel and he say that he will have the 3dclub xt in the next week - in stock.
so i believe that we will see the xt in stock worldwide. :toast:
Did a little searching on the site and it states its in stock.
sweet.. thanks for the info :DQuote:

No need to see. They are reliable with their stock claims. If they say it will ship in 24-48 hours it will.
that's ahead of schedule, I thougth that they said something like the 7th for X1800XT's to be stocked.
Official launch date is/was Nov. 5th. You're thinking of the beefier 7800 on the 7th.
They have a tracking number for them to come in today so its not in stock but maybe when i type this =)
What the heck, if it's good enough for Dumo...
Order placed now let's see if they ship.
IF they ship, with my DFI CF-DR I'm 2/3 of the way there!
Now someone find me a Master X1800XT for sale. :D
Well.... time will tell I suppose. Im still waiting for the 512Mb XL to come
So....did ATI forget about a rather large part of the world called Europe? That's right..I need to wait till the 28th to get one....shame.
But I say that if you are getting a X1800XT now....your not so smart...
Always wait till the competition has their cards on the table...wait for the Ultra guys...I'm not kidding...either within the week you have the answer or within 2 weeks....
Umm, actually I purchased (2) eVGA 7800 GT's just the other day BECAUSE I knew about the 512MB version of the GTX.Quote:

I will be exercising my "Step-Up" option with eVGA when they have their 512MB versions.
:woot:
At least you can't call me biased. I love them both!
EDIT: BTW, I think that Dumo and I are both in that "money be damned" crowd of got to have it now. I'd bet the $599 price will be down to $549 _very_ quick. But what fun is waiting.
That's how it is with the bencher crowd.
Either way, street word on this is wait for the 512mb GTX. All sources are saying it'll be the ONLY card worth considering in the high end....
2 weeks away... TOPS, if not 5 measley days!... Can people not wait that long?
I'm waitin for the 512 7800 card to hit the shelves before I consider stepping up from my 256mb 7800gtx, if the gain is big I'll do it and send the card back to eVGA, if it's not that great, I'll just vmod my card :)
I was under the impression that image quality was better with the X1800XT than the GTX and the 512MB version won't change that.
In any event, I simply _must_ have both top ends because I want to play.
Changed 7800GTXs for this one...its better be good :)
I'll be gettin one after a little discount.
someone get 2 of these and finally run Crossfire...
all I keep hearing about is single cards.
someone skip the boring stuff, and get down to the good stuff already :)
lol master card?
If IQ matters to you it's ATI. Otherwise you have to decide for yourself based on whatever factors are important to you.Quote:

Also, keep in mind, ATi cannot be set for true trilinear filtering, or supersampling AA without being in cross-fire. Both of which can be done with NVidia cards..
Therefore, IQ is kind of a toss-up.
You can run benchmarks without the master card, but that's it.
Anyways, ATI IQ is currently top-notch, but I would wait for NVIDIA's 512MB offering regardless just for the price drop that comes with more competition ;)
If you fork out for one your mad. Not even waiting a few days to see what the 512mb GTX can do.
The only thing the R520 has IQ wise is HQ AF...difference is only under certain circumstances....the real power of the card is using AA and AF without big performance drops... :)Quote:

Does not supersampling AA kinda kill all performance ? I dont know myself..
Wait a second... the 7800 512MB is confirmed or it is just a rumor?
Dumo, whats happeing to those GTX's? PM if they're FS, have a US adress ATM.
Otherwise I might be tempted to bring 2 back into DK, price at the moment for one x1800xl is ~3500dkk or 586 USD.:)
Even if you are planning to buy the 512MB GTX too?Quote:

Is anything "absolute" until Official ?
I think all we are going to see is a 7800 512 meg card with -1.6ns and at most -1.4ns memory on it. The 7800 cards out now can have 512meg on it but it would take time to produce the cards needed for a new launch like 1 to 2 months and that would put it around begging to mid Nov. There might be a faster card but I think that would be around the end of Dec to mid Jan before we see it for sale. PCB take time to layout and make for a launch because of the numbers needed for a launch. Thats why I think what were going to see here soon is just a 7800GTX with added ram to 512meg. The faster 7800 on a new PCB to use the newer memory would have to come later because of the time needed to make in the numbers needed for a launch. Theres only a few places that can layout and make the PCBs needed for NV and ATI so that make high production in short time a nell thing.
Pretty much, unless it shows up on some nasty slides by either company, then its SURE to come out :D :p:Quote:

They've had 5 months Sniping... Even ATi knew this was coming, as they mentioned it in their shareholder meeting....
We've got 3 sites + theinq all mentioning 1.1ns ram and 550 mhz core. Not to mention people saying they're under NDA on the card.
Actually since that shop ships all over the US, then yes, it's available throughout the country. Other vendors will be following in the next couple of days.Quote:

Dumo, how far do you plan to take your FX(?) for single card benchies ?? :)
Perkam
not bad... $600 is a good start for a 512mb flagship card, but they should start lowering the price under $550.
Big improvement over the x800's release, probably due to that Sapphire contract (that Sapphire produces all ATi cards)
The x1800xt is fresh, tho. Hope they can lower prices to a $450 range to compete with the 7800 GTX.
Dumo.. this might interest u ;)

That's weird. Why wait till you go out of stock on something and then boost the price $100?Quote:

Would be nice to run 2 of these on rdx 200

Hey guys I didn't see with my own eyes but Newegg seemed to have stock of the XT's twice yesterday. Seems like ATI got their cards out on time. Kudo's
Lets see results. This baby is waiting to be overclocked!
Nah, ATI got out the cards AHEAD of schedule!
The date they were supposed to be in-stock was Nov 5th
ATI lowered the price of the XL ?
http://shop.ati.com/product.asp?sku=2750315
Maybe XT will drop also.
Seems like there's gonna be a product launch from nVidia the 7th...
Something is being launched the 7th.....

Round 1
Round 2
Round 3 ----> Knockout.

I like the ad a lot.....I'm guessing the 7600 or 7800GS is what they're talking about though.
Yes that is what I also thought, maybe the 14th is the GTX 512meg date...Quote:
