Bah, I tried Dell Chat and the person wouldn't give me any credit saying that they "priced" it to be more than what I bought it at (they couldn't understand that 160GB > 80GB since the dvd-bruner upgrade is makes it priced at like 690 now.
I caved in and bought it. Probably be the last video card I'll own on AGP. Also there's a 10% coupon (only up to $15) that can be applied. Found it on techbargins.
Total: 374.23 Shipped - $50 rebate = 324.23
Well I did see a place where you can buy items from the game using money.
Heh found it in the ToS.
"The Company makes money by selling virtual items for you to use in game."
Yup I'm getting the same 2/4/05 crap on the one item i was suppose to pay for. I sent an email asking about my entire order so I guess I'll see what's up. Worse case is cancelling and having the two "free" items costing me $50.
Well the 8600 is
Height: 1.52-inch (38.6 mm)
Width: 14.22-inch (361.2 mm)
Depth: 10.79-inch (276.1 mm)
While the case Dimensions (WxDxH) - 15.7 in x 4 in x 13.7 in
So if the dimensions listed on the website is for the space for the laptop, it should fit fine.
Edit: Comment...
List Price: $599.95
Our price: $439.95
You save: $160.00 (26.7%)
Is it just me or did the list price just go through the roof? Status went from backorder/out of stock to special order, whatever that means.
I have an older version of this monitor from dell long time ago. Paid 540 after tax. Don't let the refresh rate fool you. I haven't noticed any ghosting from this monitor except when I played Freelancer for a bit. Max Payne 2 and Far Cry played just fine to me. My 2 cents.
I believe VIVO's have 16 pipelines, just 4 are disabled (not cut off, so no need for hard mod). Not bad if you can get a VIVO -> XT for the price of a PRO. Would be about 433 with tax. Might need to check this one out. Anyone know if BBA cards are sold at any other retailers?
Great, at least now I know BuyXG has the same customer service as Gateway. Excuse is almost word for word on what Gateway gave me about the X800 XT. Sorry no waiting for you. At least BuyXG sent emails out next day as opposed to 2 months..
Exactly what happened to me. Btw, I got the backorder email. Too bad, I sorta hate to use extra PCI slots. If this doesn't go through, I'll probably have to wait out another product line.
Check your online order status to see if it updated as well. After I got the replacement email, my online order status changed from a shipping date to please contact support.
Thing is if the top of the line cards continue to be in short supply, prices wont' drop very quickly either. 9800 Pro's are still 200+ in price for a card that's been released quite long ago. Its because the new gen cards aren't in supply.
Dell rep told me accessories don't apply to the EPP discount (employee purchase program) and that only applied to systems. Bah, taxes bump this price too high for me. I guess I have to wait for gateway to come through.
It says ships in 5-7 days on the site. I also see that the card's an option as an upgrade on their normal desktops which estimated would ship on 9/2 with the x800 xt. I think I'd chance this as opposed to waiting forever for gateway to send mine.
I couldn't find a place to enter coupons in under Healthcare Client. Came out to be 451 after tax for me. Tax sorta kills it for me.
Edit: FYI, this card is also listed under local/state governments site. I'm gonna see if I can order this through my workplace (county gov) and see if I can...
