Just got mine today. Sweet. Haven't tested it yet, but looks to be in good shape.
Interesting to note: the outside packaging shows the case also comes in all black, and NewEgg appears to have it in stock. Hadn't seen that before.
In for one. Thanks, OP. Been wanting to get this for several months and kept missing the various sales over time. This is the best price I've seen to date for the case.
Not sure how good this card is - it's the value version - but the price seems reasonable (seemingly lowest at Amazon even prior to rebate.) You may want to do an on site search (in this forum) for Audigy and read up on differences in their cards - there have been good deals on the next level...
For those who wanted this in blue (it looks good), ChiefValue is showing it in stock now (I just got an email on this.) Price is regular price: $98.99 ($89.00+ $9.99 ship.) Add tax if in California. Unfortunately, I have no $$$ at present so thought I'd pass this one on as there were a few...
Review on this from OverclockerCafe
Seemingly not a good solution for OCing, but good otherwise for AMD Duron and Athlon Series up to 3400+
(check Themaltake site for specifics)
I stand corrected - from the color of the fan it does look like this IS the 256 bit version.
Do note, however, that Powercolor does make a 128 bit R98 PC3 9800 Pro as well as a 256 bit version, and Monarch seemingly does not always list all specs correctly on their website.
I'm just a...
I am not a video card expert - far from it. However, I did some reading on this. Do note this card is a 128 bit card, and so supposedly (from what I've read) will run a bit slower than a 256 bit version. At this point, while the price is really good - especially for retail version - I am not...
For those who like rebates and like OCZ:
Price is $44.99 + shipping and tax + $25 rebate.

RobsTV:
Thanks for the info - good stuff.
User1234:
If possible, please post your thoughts on this when you do get it. Thanks.
I unfortunately had to pop out to take care of some business. When I got back, free shipping was gone. Yes, I am an incredible idiot, but may still get...
user1234:
Thanks, very much - your info was extremely helpful and I do appreciate the response. I think I'll look at a 754/3100+ solution (due to $$$ considerations.) Venice would be great but it would put a bit of a strain on my budget.

You are one funny mo-fo; was thinking...
How impactful is the CPU on gaming??? That is, if one picks up a mobile amd at 2200 or better with a Sapphire 9800 pro would that work okay for gaming purposes at stock speeds or only if OCing??? (I haven't tried OCing yet when building a system.) Sorry for the bump (and last question.)
