ATI says, they are still on time with their product.

Rumors about the X1600 and X1800 being delayed, were denied by ATI. ATI says they will have their products ready to ship on time.

When the new graphics card where annouced, the X1600 and X1800 series, were promised to be ready for end-user by October 30th to November 2nd. Some stores like Allstarshop already have the X1800XT in stock it seems.

ok that website selling the X1800XT is a joke right?

For what they are asking for this card they can keep it!

Seriously, why would anyone want that for that extreme cost.

Newegg doesnt have it, which officially makes this a paper launch.

so i am gonna enjoy my x800 xt pe for now , will wiat till some new stuff comes out moreover the likes of that rumoured 24pipe x1800
With spelling like that, who would second guess he has a friend that has the card before anyone else?

I'm not quite following you... are you saying you don't believe that zOaib's friend has an X1800XT 512 MB?
