Did i miss something, they quote shipping costs, but not the cost of the board?

AGR964 · 03-10-2003, 11:43 PM

Hey- It's only $400!

Sign me up! <-Extreme sarcasm

Miles · 03-10-2003, 11:43 PM

Yeah I found it at Best Buy and it's the same price that the 9700 Pro was/is $399

spookyload · 03-11-2003, 03:02 AM

Best Buy had a $100 dollar instant in sotre rebate this weekend on the 9700 pro's. Not bad for local retail. $299 is about as good as you can find on pricewatch for that matter.

Anyone seen the 256 MB version anywhere - preorder?

uk_blaster · 03-14-2003, 07:05 PM

not yet, my guess is early april..

HeavyPlague · 03-15-2003, 05:18 AM

I found a pre-order for the 256 meg 9800 pro. The card was selling for $499 (YIKES!) I don't think the extra 128 megs justifies another $100. I hope this is just some pre-order price gouging. I want to see some comparison benches before I plop down that kind of money.

9800 256MB Preorder

I have pre-ordered the 9800 128MB from ATI themselves. That should be a nice upgrade from my vanilla Geforce3!

It will be about the same price as I paid for my Geforce3 about 2 years ago.

lol i don't see how they going to ship to australia

realdieu · 03-15-2003, 04:31 PM

That's right! USA only baby! The good news is if ATI does not have the 256MB flavour, than nobody such as ENPCwill. I would keep watching ATI's website for the preorder for the 256MB...

realdieu what happens with your Asylum FX mate?

Maxbo · 03-15-2003, 09:07 PM

I wonder how much of the 256mb will be utilized?

It might be two years or more before any game on the market needs that much video memory.
