Well, after getting my e2180 and new mobo the other week from overclockers, ive sat waiting to grab one of these, i missed those initial batches that appeared, and well, my old card is owed to someone and has to go soon now, so i had to order one from anywhere as soon as it appeared, sadly it wasnt here :( i wont say where or anything else due to rules etc, but the first and only place i found that had lots in stock today i just grabbed.

pretty excited as my last new card was a 7900gs i got a long while ago.. anyhow, pretty excited by it all !

lol sorry if this is a pretty boring , another woohoo i got my card ordered,. but i was excited. :D
 
good on you, should be a tasty upgrade!!

should be recieving my Asus 8800GT today, couldnt wait for an OC version, im too impatient! Free game, plus cheaper price, and card in my hand make the difference!
 
well i had to get the first one i could, as my old card is owed to someone, and because im not too fussed about oc versions and whatnot, i just went with what i ordered. is just a standard 8800 512mb, but that suites me fine ! as i said i wanted to get from overclockers, but because of my situation i had to get from the first place that they showed up, but it will be interesting to see how quick the cards go, as i seem to keep reading theres still few of them about.
 
you will enjoy it :) i upgraded from a 7800GS, first gen lga775 p4 prescott (old) to a e6600 c2d and a 8800gtx :P i was blown away with the the performance difference, and i know you will be too.
 
yeah i was amazed the difference in say,. crysis demo,. between my old cpu and the new stuff/more ram. so with the added new gfx card, should keep me goin for another 2 years. haha :D
 
I was lucky to get the first batch BFG 8800GT OC from OcUK the other week (ordered on saturday the 3rd - I waited all day before ordering, evening being told by webnote that they would all be gone by the end of the day!).

I also upgraded froma 7900GS (although, complete upgrade as I was on an AGP system). Its nice to be able to play games without all the stuttering I can tell you that lol.
