    muther fooker supplier called this afternoon and said there was a mistake on the online system.:mad:

    @ 200 euro it was cheaper than the 3870 Anti and its kinda better at that.

    ah well just have to keep waiting now.

    EDIT:

    think theyve done me a favour actually cause me mobo is crossfire certified and not sli.

    ATI better get there **** together real soon!

    Yeh the 8800gt's are great. I have mine oc'd to 700,1000 with rivatuner.

    1 thing i will say though, the stock cooling is too loud and crap at keeping temps low.

    I would get a better cooler if you want to OC or if you want it to be quiet.
