Argh! The ETA has gone to the 3rd now

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!

Because they haven't been delivered today .

 

[Clairvoyant]

Get the XFX instead. lol

 

[HeX]

Because they haven't been delivered today .

Yes but WHYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!

They were meant to be here Monday, only weren't as they were held up at customs, so surely they should have made the simple jaunt from customs to here by now!!!

I shall show my exasperation with three, yes THREE more exclamation marks...

!!!


And I don't want the scummy XFX one with the noisy horrible stock cooler

I want Tri-Fan smugness!

 

[jmhduck]

Maybe customs was holding them up because the tri fan design looked suspicous - too much power .

 

[~>Dg<~]

haha my friend on ts is raging now he wants one today!

 

[Thumpsta]

ETA date has changed to the 3/6/09 now.

nvm saw it earlier in the thread sorry.

 

[Jaggy]

I never order anything on pre order after the debacle of the 6800/x800's a few years back.

Don't want to alarm anyone but we waited a couple of months for those to turn up !

I'll wait till it shows in stock tomorrow

I personally try to not buy anything for about a month from launch, hopefully any problems or driver glitches would've been discovered/fixed by then (obviously unlikely to be any problems here though).

 

[Clairvoyant]

I know that this is going to cool the card better than the stock cooler.

But how much hotter will the case get (and other parts). As its not fully expelling the air out the back of the case.

(Sorry if this has been asked allready).

 

[HeX]

I'd imagine in a case with decent airflow you'd hardly see a difference in case temps.

Your sig doesn't have your PSU listed...

Of course it isn't ....

It's a 600W OCZ StealthXStream. Thoughts on whether it'd suffice for the system in sig with this X2 'stead of the 8800 appreciated.

Thanks.

look on AMD game on site? see if its under the supported list thing

"ETA: 05/06/09" - Not happy.

 

[jmhduck]

"ETA: 05/06/09" - Not happy.

If you're lucky they might've done that to ensure they are definately there by the 5th, and I guess they *could* come earlier.

 

[HeX]

5th! WT...

Could do with some official explanations here!

I thought these were confirmed on a lorry at customs, what is with the 5 day delay

Not to mention 5th is a Friday, so we won't get the cards til next Monday now!

 

[Clairvoyant]

Well the weathers lovely and hot. So wont everyone be drink and eating BBQs all weekend. lol

On a real note thats Customs for ya, they can pull and hold any shipment to be scanned. And then its in a que.

 

[Fatboy]

Shipment has indeed been delayed guys I am sorry. The delivery is now in on Friday it has been a mixture of Asus Delays, Customs delays and European Holiday nothing I can do to get it here any quicker I am afraid.

We do have teh XFX in stock and ready to ship if you wanted to change over http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-118-XF&groupid=701&catid=56&subcat=1235
