gravy Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 i just watched a guy this afternoon walk into Monarch Computers here in Atlanta and pay for a Nvidia 6800 Ultra Extreme Edition, over $900, he let me hold it and look it over good, very nice, then he wrapped his arm around it, shaking slightly, and briskly walked out the door, as it was the only one they had and from the looks of things, likely to be on back order for a long time.........hehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dimonicka Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 That card was sposed to be out months ago and sell for around $550, these hardware vendors are really getting out of hand i think 450MHz core but with the same 550MHz memory clock (1100MHz G-DDR3).

gravy Posted October 21, 2004 Posted October 21, 2004 That card was sposed to be out months ago and sell for around $550, these hardware vendors are really getting out of hand i think that would be the 6800 ultra, not the extreme edition lets just put it this way they have a lottery type drawing to determine who gets to pay a grand for thier video card, is that exclusive enough? this is the exact card he walked out with @Darken_Sun here you go http://www.monarchcomputer.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv i do reviews for them and try to keep the front page news updated Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
