buy.com has the XFX Alpha Dog 512MB for $249 shipped. I'd probably buy that one, but I'm waiting until after the Christmas dust settles.Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw.

I went for it.
http://www.ncix.com/products/index.p...y&promoid=1087 (currently 53 left for this promo)
Came to $229 + ship - rebate, so $247-$20, USD.
Let's hope I get a good one.
Also, the only way Americans can pay is via PayPal. I hope I didn't make a poor choice in using that.Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw. Running WinXP.

Nice!
My buddy ordered a Galaxy 8800GTS from there.
I've read up a little bit on Galaxy in the last week or so, seem to be reputable enough, and apparently they are a favorite of (budget?) overclockers.Q9450 + TRUE, G.Skill 2x2GB DDR2, GTX 560, ASUS X48, 1TB WD Black, Windows 7 64-bit, LG M2762D-PM 27" + 17" LG 1752TX, Corsair HX620, Antec P182, Logitech G5 (Blue)

The last 4 cards in this house have been ATI's, but I think the next 2 are going to be NV. The 3850/70 are pretty good for people on a tighter budget though.Q9450 + TRUE, G.Skill 2x2GB DDR2, GTX 560, ASUS X48, 1TB WD Black, Windows 7 64-bit, LG M2762D-PM 27" + 17" LG 1752TX, Corsair HX620, Antec P182, Logitech G5 (Blue)

FYI, buy.com e-mailed to let me know the XFX card is back in stock, but they've also jacked their price another $10 to $273 shipped. Newegg pushed their availability date back another week.Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw.

My Galaxy arrived today. I can see that I have the new cooler on it, but I won't know more until I get it home.Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw. Running WinXP.

Nice, be sure to let us know how it runs.
My buddy got his GTS in, unfortunately he's still waiting on his PSU as it was out of stock.Q9450 + TRUE, G.Skill 2x2GB DDR2, GTX 560, ASUS X48, 1TB WD Black, Windows 7 64-bit, LG M2762D-PM 27" + 17" LG 1752TX, Corsair HX620, Antec P182, Logitech G5 (Blue)

I installed it, and have about 10 minutes of Portal played. SO much faster than the X800 it replaced. I have lots of Filtering and AA options to try, but I was just playing the game at 1680x1050, with everything on High and full HDR, and the game was usually 200-240fps, but there was one scene where things would drop to 100fps if I looked at it right.
This card is unusual in that it has 2 PCIe power sockets. I have one of them plugged in. It also has a jumper to overvolt the card, but I'm running it stock right now. ATITool crashed the system when I tried to let it auto-overclock the card. It actually seemed OC the card, then go way too far in bringing the speed back down. Not sure.Gigabyte P35-DS3L with a Q6600, 2GB Kingston HyperX (after *3* bad pairs of Crucial Ballistix 1066), Galaxy 8800GT 512MB, SB X-Fi, some drives, and a Dell 2005fpw. Running WinXP.
