X800 XT availability?

[batboy]

I've been seeing the X800 Pro for sale lately. What about the XT?

[$anch3z]

not to sure about how soon you will have them available in usa but i have a pre order for a connect 3d x800 xt from the european retailer (supposedly the first to have then in the uk) and thats around another 20 days approx......i phoned them and apparently they are waiting on stock to be shipped from Hong Kong

/me prays to gfx card god

$anch3z - who in the uk have you ordered from - me wants one soon too.... :D (tho id rather wait and get a sapphire one)
il probably get mine from www.tekheads.co.uk otherwise - theirs is the cheapest sapphire 800xt iv seen yet

My BBA has been pre-ordered (5-8-04) from Best buy.com and my ship date is 6-15. I'm not to sure if that is the actual ship date though. Because it claims that date to be the "release" date so....it could be anytime after that. :rolleyes:

Here They Say Release Date For The X800XT is May22nd Or Tommorrow

Actually I believe the release date was May 21st or today. But the x800pro's release date was May 7th I think. It takes about two weeks after the release date before people will start recieving them.

ebuyer have x800 pro's in stock in the uk ....sapphire btw

this is uk only btw

I'm going to hold out for the X800 XT, besides, the guy buying one of my computers has to wait until early June anyway. I might just do what Krag did and pre-order from Best Buy. I prefer the BBA.

I just placed an order with CDW for the X800 XT Plat Edition for $469 with UPS ground shipping. No idea on actual delivery though.

i thought it was supposed to come out today? on ati's website, it says june :confused:

[nocturnal714]

it was released today but retail stores won't be getting them till around june 15-21. a lot of times they receive it before that but are not allowed to put them on display till the manufacturer's release date. i used to work in retail and we would receive games, cards and stuff like that about a week or two before it was supposed to be shipped but we were never allowed to touch it.

I just read that thread over at rage3D.com and it looks like its an OEM XT platinum and there are conflicting sales rep e-mails as to when it will actually be in. I would rather pay a little extra for a bonified Built By Ati card myself.

I just tried to order and they are sold out. They said they got about 50, and will get more on the 27th.

[batboy]

Where?

[hemidude]

Sorry, CDW had them in stock today for $465 or so. I called and they said they got 50 and they are sold out. I heard about on another forum and had to verify it for myself. I dont know if CDW is full of it or not but they said they are getting another shipment on the 27th.

I got an order verified receipt. I'm waiting on actual shipping email. Fingers are crossed.
