[SirOblivious]

best buy online has BFG 6800GT OC's in stock. $399+tax+shipping. comes to like $440 total i think. I ordered one yesterday w/ a new PSU.

*edit* sry, dunce moment. we were talking about the PCIe weren't we. That ones AGP.

 

[TheGeek]

Im debating which brand to buy. any suggestions?

 

[davidtran007]

bfg i think has lifetime warranty. i hear they also have very good customer service. people say they always pick up their phone and they are reliable compared to other companies

 

[bkzshabbaz]

yeah...when i have a choice to which cards to buy, I'd buy the BFG...they come overclocked, which is nice.

 

[bjc112]

Zip Zoom Fly--- $699.99 + Free 2nd Day Shipping

That's just outright ridiculous.

 

[davidtran007]

chumbo has the xfx 6800 gt in stock as of 7am pst.

 

[bkzshabbaz]

yeah, many retailers have the XFX 6800GT in stock. I've heard bad things about that brand of cards, so I dont think i'll be getting a XFX

 

[nitro28]

I am tempted to buy the xfx, but I keep reading bad things about their support and underclocking etc..

 

[bkzshabbaz]

that is why im holding off for either an Evga or BFG

 

[bkzshabbaz]

Does anyone know what monarchs pre-order policy is? I cant find it on the site, and I cant get in touch with their customer service. i want to know when will they charge me, if i am able to cancel order easily ... things of that nature

 

[bkzshabbaz]

Monarch now pushed its ETA to 3/30.... is eVGA skipping the first quarter of production or something?

zipzoomfly lowered the price on the evga 6800GT and has an updated pic on the 6800Ultra...mayb they're expecting something soon??? =)

 

[MickDD]

Just talked to my guy at Chumbo.com and he said that all BFG could tell them on the 6800GT OC PCI Express was that they would recieve a shipment within two weeks to one month.....that was on Monday.

 

[MickDD]

OP this link is the correct one for the BFG card

Linkus Maximus

 

[bkzshabbaz]

thats what i heard as well, but i didnt hear the max is a month part. I called on monday and he told me they're expecting a shipment to fullfill all the back orders and will have some left over for others. But there is also the bad news of limited supply for the first half of 2005. I'll look for the article and post it here.

Here it is:
