Yup, thats the one due the 17th. But on the link you'll also see a Novatech branded one. Bit cheaper as well.

Savastore aren't even showing a listing for the 8800GT.

I think Alex the way technology is, ill just save some money now, it will allow me to play some great games, COD series, MOH series, half life 2 etc
By the time i have enough money there will be something much better, otherwise I may never get this system running :(

I was looking at some reviews of the 8800GT and they say, its run Crysis, Bioshock basically all the games that I would want to play. I can always upgrade in the future, but at least if I buy this now I can get this baby running!

Not sure how accurate this statement is but have a look at this

Was it?

Bleery eyed to say the least. Still, it still looks accurate judging by the searching tonight doesn't it?

Anyway. Bottom line: There is stock out there, just not of the EVGA.

So yeah, just get one that's in stock. It's still the card you want. And who knows, maybe you can oc it. You'll save some money regardless, over the EVGA card. Maybe that'll take some of the sting out of it when it does eventually come into stock.

No problem fella, anytime.

Now I'm off to bed.

Actually.

Give Vadim a ring Monday. They really are a superb company. Enquire about the BFG. They may even reserve it for you. They aren't some massive online etailer, more a small group of custom pc builders. Best service online or on the high street I've ever come across.

It's only tomorrow.

Just an option.

Also, if you never get a 8800GT buy this:

its only $18,000. And yes, its a gpu. Or rather a series of. 64x AA anyone?
