Amusing how this time its Nvidia having a criminally low shortage of 7900's after release... even Dell can't get their hands on any and are starting to take them off of their system builds http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=31065 and nearly all major webstores are pre-order despite the cards being launched a good month ago.

ATI were slated for this rather viciously a while back if you remember.

Swings and roundabouts it seems. :)

Congrats on making a fanboy thread...

Overclockers have 7900's in stock

Dear complete and utter plonker who needs to think before he posts,

90% of my video cards have always been Nvidia, and I loved them, so I can hardly be accuse of being an ATI fanbiy. As has been said, this was just to highlight that ATI aren't the only ones this happens to, and people were very quick to jump all over ATI when it happened to them, and indeed it has been used as ammunition for a long while.

I'm not a fanboy to any company, I just have the ability to look at a situation objectively unlike 80% of people on here who cry "fanboy" the moment someone actually looks at two sides of a story. This is a very relevant issue and it's funny how the only ones complaining about the thread are the ones with a past reputation for fanboyism, while the more mature people are just noting the observation for what it is... an observation.

Typical cry of innocence, tbh.

This thread was created to stir up trouble, simple as.

I suggest the mods should lock it.

Good job you're not a mod then, with your judgement. ;)

The only reason this thread would stir up trouble is from people like your good self and the other contentious folks who turn it into trouble, when was fanboyism even mentioned until a few posts down? 75% of the people posting including Gbbo had no problem with it, it's only when the fanboys arrive a thread turns into a kiddy weeing contest and the tone goes rapidly downhill, and unfortunately on this forum that is a frequent occurrence.

Oh well...

Strange things amuse you. Gibbo has already stated that they have them in stock.

*sigh* and the rest of the UK webstores? Is OCUK representative of the entire world? Are you saing there is no widespread stock shortage and The INQ is just making things up?

Hmm let me think about that a minute...

lol me and two friends ordered from there and got fed up with the constant delays so we all cancelled and they paid the extra and got Gainwards from OCUK instead. :)

Hi there

OK to stop the screaming we now have 100 of the BFG 7900 GTX in stock as well. :D

So come on get your cards, we have plenty of product in stock from a good range of manufacturers and there is ample to go round. :)

Is this batch going to be the last for a while or will there now be a steady stream coming in? My cousin wants to buy one but won't be able to till next month. :)

Oh dear complete and utter plonker who needs to read my posts again before he goes of on one :rolleyes:

I never once called YOU a fanboy, so do not call me a plonker.

Anyway its a happy ending because there's loads of GTX's in stock :)

I'm sorry are you blind? So who wrote this?

I dread to think what the outcome would be if ATI & Nvidia made handbags!!! :D

There'd be casualties, severe casualties. :D

Just a shame you constantly have to be on the defensive on this forum... kind of ruins the atmosphere in this section.
