    The price difference between retail and bulk P128 is small, at least in Europe. So retail it is.

      Thanks Ant for editing the vote!
      I'm in your debt man. Ask me anytime to keep an eye on your Parhelia board when you go on vacation :P

          I still want to get the Parhelia with 128 MB in a Retail version, but I would really like a version shrinked to 0,13µm and clocked a little bit higher.

          I think for a higher clock I can handle it myself (better headsink + fan).

          I think I'll place my order after my tests in July (around 18th).

            Well,

            I can't afford it so I'll wait for the 64MB option. Then if I can't afford it either (I bet I still won't), I'll wait some more for the competition to start (R300 and NV30), wait some more for prices to drop and then (hopefully) get it as a present (from my gf ?) or something

            Anyway, my vote went for "wait".

                  I might have to postpone my order too... I didn't realize I had to use so much cash on furniture & more when moving out...

                  (Though the order stays if I get a job tomorrow, which looks highly likely...)

                    I've cancelled my order. I was hoping that Parhelias miltitexturing etc would help out on games like UT2003, afterall its Q3 scores are high enough. Unfortunately it appears that the card doesnt have enough raw power for me to pay £330. Hopefully newer drivers will rectify that problem.

                    Looks like its a gf4200 for me

                      The performance of the Parhelia just doesn't justify the price tag. I can't use triplehead, so all it offers to me is AA and slightly better frame rates. That's great, but not worth $400. My G400Max is just going to have to do for a little while longer.

                        I will wait untill the 256Mb card arrives! By that time drivers has perhaps improved to!

                              $400 is just way too much to spend on a graphics card considering how little I play 3D games.
