Supposed to be the end of October, but it was the end of September before that and the end
of August before that. Everyone is in the same boat so don't feel like the Lone Ranger lol.

Also, there are the PE cards out. There are just hardly any. They are practically impossible to find.

Clean in every benchmark or air yes but it takes one hell of a good R350 core (luck in the draw) to get
that. 513 clean in GL Excess is reasonably common with a good R350 core.

While it takes good mods to get the results in the end it is still the luck of the draw that has the
final say. As the old saying says "you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear" no matter what
you do it and the best you can expect is just a fast sow's ear.

So this PE x800xt got a 15327 on all the highest detail settings. It plays doom, far cry, and call of duty like nothing. I bet on performance settings it may go 20000

Learner what kind of system do you have. I am assuming those are 3DM01se numbers and they
are thousands of 3DMarks to low indicating a slow system or a problem.

3DM01se is highly effected by the test system speed.

yes, i am in the x800xt pe boat now, too. I can't decide what to get as a replacement. seems all my choice cards are out of stock everywhere.

I sure hope they get the PEs out soon cause I really need a new video card.
especially with HL2 supposedly around the corner. :drool:

come on ATI, I'd like to get this card while it's still top ot the line. :cry:

My vendor is saying that ATI is still holding to the 10/29 arrival date to their warehouse.

hmm.. I wonder if ATI knows that ;)
that'd be great if ATI really comes through this time. :clap:
who knows maybe gateway will be giving me a call in the next few weeks.. lol

btw.. I found it listed at zones.com for $449 and when I e-mailed about their stock/availability they said they had an estimate of between Nov 6 to Dec 31.
they don't have any recent ratings on resellerratings.com though
