Appreciate the input!
i say go for it now. you can always wait for the next big thing to come out, but then you'll die of old age. i plan on taking the SLI plunge with a couple of GTs, and the way i see it, the 9-series couldn't be so phenomenal that it just completely buries my setup. it might dig a little hole, but that's about it.

w00t! (We can actually say that now it's been added to the dictionary.) I just ordered an XFX 8800gt 512mb from Newegg.com. I'm waiting on the shipping info now.

I'm not saying that it ever stopped us. I'm just saying it's actually a word now.

does anyone know if XFX would send me the revised one if i tell them its getting too hot, my brothers only goes to 55c full load and he has the smaller fan too, and its only running 50% so not loud or hot at all but i wouldnt mind that extra few degree's
I have the small fan version but it doesn't get that hot.It stays around 42 idle and 57 load so its not to bad.Oh and by the way my fan speed is at 60%.
