gibbo mentioned earlyer today that your card will be charged once the order is placed
 
yep charged your card will be when the order is placed. then cry when the card comes into stock and is despatched at a lower price than when u placed the order :p
 
As said they take the money when you order, I guess it is in case you forgot and take the money out before they come into stock. That and they get interest on it :p

Sort of off topic but does anyone know what wattage the TECs used are? I'm guessing around 40w

why not wait till 8800gtx?

around a month from now, x1950pro isnt a good buy, 2 is even worse.

Yeah but lazy it will no doubt be even less than half the price of the GTX!

I would probably only see the sence in getting one, again just depends on the res and stuff!

Really good price tho I may buy one after release!
 
Yeah G80 is supposed to be in short supply, im sure Gibbo said theres only about 200 coming in, so your talking about £500+ for them which has been mentioned, 2x of these are only going to be about £280, and they'll cut through everything for well over a year yet. :)
 
If the x1950gt price takes a hit when the g80 comes out then it would mean a very cheap yet powerful solution! I certainly don't want to spend £400+ on a single card so will be happy to get one (or two :rolleyes: ) of these and wait for later (and cheaper) dx10 capable cards to surface! ;)

how will over clocking these cards work with cross fire , do they overclcok together or seperatly?

the benchies out so far place the card or CF fairly far down the list , compared to x1900xt in cross fire etc , wonder how the HUGE overclock you will get with this card will make , did someone not say before that it is the shaderes etc that make the biggest diff , not the raw ghz?
