dude for some reason lately

with a few brands
we seem to be getting stuff like way earlier than the rest of the world
the 8800gt was available 10 days before the launch
the hd3870 was 5 days before the launch

yup mainly in lowyat but usually i deal direct with distro

the shortages for 8800gt has been picked up by zotac and galaxy cards
most of the guys here reported by flashing the galaxy cards to the SSC bios they manage to get higher clocks.

oh yeah the shops are running some political thingy
a lot of them have it but its reserved for their frequent customers.
and some distro has been harrasing a few shops
two incident came to mind
buildtech the distro for asus gpu/mobo threaten a few shops a month ago that those who do not take the 2900pro stocks from them.. they will not get the first preference
kaira the distro for XFX now is saying if u want the 8800gt ADE u need to take 10 8500gt...
