Good Ol' Bookmarks. (S/O = sold out. I/S = in stock)

hahaha. That's made my day. Well at least you will be able to check for new arrivals easier than most people. =]

lol, yeah. All I have to do is press the "Open in all tabs" button and I can see which ones are "O/S or I/S", and around the evening each day (to give time for them to update their stock) I update there prices, availability, and take a screenshot to see the price fluctuations day to day.

Very 'neat'.

But hey, you got what to go if you want to get one.

Hey guys. I finally took the plunge and ordered a 8800GT.

I'll only get it sometime after 15 November due to stock.

Not sure if this has been answered, I didn't read the whole thread.

My question is this. Will the Zalman VF-1000 and the Zalman ZM-RHS88 RAM heatsinks fit on the GT?

I'll check how the temperature is once I get it, but I might get the Zalman cooler if it's a bit too hot to my liking.

xlastshotx, how about I open a section in this thread under your name? When you get the price information, let me know and then I update it for you. We need member's efforts to improve this thread.

That would definitely work better. It would be nice to make it easier for people who have the money then and there, to make a good decision on a card based on good prices and information.
