Same here... Ordered my Zotac at 8:46am on the 22nd...

Hooray, my BFG 8800GT OC2 arrived the morning - so I guess anyone who preordered will also get theirs as well

the EVGA wabsite still lists all GT's as backordered ...

Be interesting to know where their priorities lie as I can't see to many becoming available elsewhere until they have there own stock ..

very strange ..

pleased I gave up waiting and went for a BFG OC2 ...

What a let down, i put it in and pc wont even boot, just gives a beep.

Was told a seasonic 430w would be fine :mad:

FirebarUK · 27 Nov 2007 at 11:46

Would have thought it would be ok. A single beep suggests your machine has got past POST.

I'll be running mine off 250W shuttle PSU

It was in, strangly enough i put my x1800xt back in and it come in flashing red, plug in power lead, it was in tho?

So ive added that ad-on lead with another 6pin on it and used that instead, the 8800gt is now working :confused:

Will do a run on 06 and see what i get, its pre-clocked to 660mhz !

I cba buying anything other than a EVGA for the moment, as the new NVID refresh should be out in Feb. Only thing, is that there is no stock yet!! :eek:

Thedog45 · 27 Nov 2007 at 12:07

Looks like they are holding the shader clocks back on some of the preclocked cards, i get 1652 shader at 661 gpu. :confused:
