    Well I personally would look around at other suppliers just spotted one at £399 and another at £429 one INNO and the other XFX. GTX and in stock. Sorry Scan I normally order from you but £30 diff on this and the Pallit and £60 on the XFX is enough for me to buy elsewhere.

    I like buying from scan cos its not to far from home, also i buy things on a regular basis and I have noticed that every 5 items I buy one item i have to return , that is 1 of the main reason it has to be scan.

    Usually prices are the best at scan, I remember when I bought my 7950GX2 and I saved a further £40 from the prices shown , but this time there is no discount.

    Dont get me wrong guys, Scan is still one of the best online retailers around, just looking after the old money in my pocket. Yes the other supplier is in stock and no I am not stating who.

    The 7950gx2 I bought was £530 and I paid £470 , not bad huh?

    It was the XFX XXX , but I asked good ole mubs a bit ago and he said no discount this time round on the 8800.

    After I have the 890GTX things will change meaning I dont need Vista no more ,Vista now needs me.Lol

    Why would you get the 8800 if you already have a 7950GX2?

    I honestly dont know, I just love the graphic cards too much.

    That will go in my sons system and the 8900gtx in my system . I have no other interests other than PC,s.

    I will see how tommorrow folds and take it from there.

    I think the price is a sign of how good the specced machine would be -
