    I`ve had one on order for 3 months now with overclockers and everytime i ring up they say they`ve been told to expect them in 4 weeks. After 4 weeks guess what another 4 weeks. I`m tempted to cancel and go for the ultra.
    Anyone else in this position and any info on release dates would be great..

    Cheers

    I know they have a big back log, but don't take that as offical. But this isnt "really" the place to post? This sort of problem should be on ocuk's site(forum)...

    I was thinking about getting the X800XT as it was so cheap but when compare it to the 6800GT it's pretty much the same thing with the GT pulling ahead in open gl and future proof with shader 3.0. I'd plump for a gt the extra money for an ultra just isn't worth it as you can get a GT for £276 but you'll pay over £400 for a tiny boost on the ultra which you could get from overclocking a gt anyway. I've put it on hold till motherboards for the A64s start to develop a little more and they fix some of the issues with the PCI/AGP lock but if you must have now I'd advise you did a little research into the GT.
