Me either... I've got a pair for SLI on order with ExcaliberPC already, so they should be in my hands next week. Can't wait... shame that they're in CA though, I'm in CT too so shipping will take a bit longer since it's via ground . I'll probably have to grab something to help cool them further from the sounds of it, though ! I don't have any older, nicer coolers for these already either.

Anyone know when Newegg is going to have them in stock ?

No pre-order allow perhaps ?

I don't know, but I just found them for $233 each on a good-enough site (ordering 2 of them from Onsale.com which is a sub-company of pc/macmall)... actually going to cancel my Excaliber order as it's so much cheaper (good $40 savings with overnight shipping even! vs. ground and higher price at Excal ) and place it there with overnight shipping. Plus, by going through the FatWallet.com site, I'll get another $9.50 as a check in about a month back on the purchase too. I sincerely doubt even Newegg will be able to beat that price, and this way I don't have to snipe 2 of them off of there, possibly even missing it entirely.

Hmm I can't locate it on Onsale.com, can you still see it?

Maybe you can post a link for us?


Thanks

I'm contemplating getting an 8800GT...since i need a new videocard and dunno if ATI is gonna release another crap card.

Anyway, I called onsale.com to check the status (since website says to call, cause it's not in stock)... and the sales person i spoke to said they had no idea when they'd get them in... asked me if i wanted to leave my phone number. I declined and said i'd just check back on the website periodically.

Just giving you a heads up before you place orders/cancel them at a million sites

edit: i placed an order with them.. i hate being a compulsive buyer, just wanting to buy stuff lol

I called onsale up and spoke to the warehouse manager.
They have zero idea on how many they will be getting in shipment and the website does not have an accurate count to tell you if you will be getting one or if it's on backorder.
There ratings on resellerratings aren't bad, but I hate dealing with companies that do restock fees, especially when the products are on backorder and they have no idea when they are getting new shipments in..

Yeah, that's what every other merchant I tried said too... so I just went with OnSale since they had cheap overnight shipping and were the lowest price around by a good $10 a card basically, excluding the shipping being inexpensive as heck ($17 for 2 cards FedEx overnight!!, most places want $14 for ground shipping from CA for these).

Wow $233 b4 launch even?? That's some really incredible pricing.

Yeah, I thought so too, cheap overnight shipping sealed the deal. Saving $40ish instantly over my Excaliber order, + $9ish rebate from FatWallet's e-rebates program, with overnight shipping rather than ground to boot .

Wow, thanks! I was going to preorder one from excaliber but their shipping costs threw me off (come on, $50 for overnight? ).

Hopefully onsale.com will get them right away when they come out.
