Title says it all. Anyone got one yet? I know it's still early but I know someone has that money burning a hole in his pocket.

Give it a week or two, someone will get one and it won`t be me.;) :)
I am not getting one till alot further down the road as my present rig is all I need right now. I wouldn't be totally opposed to Intel either, as it all depends on performance when I have the money.;)
No way dude, im waiting for Quantum computers.Quote:

I was going to but am getting an awesome deal instead.
P4 3.0ghz w/ HT with intel mobo and windows xp pro for $250 :). ALL brand new (AND now stolen :)).
And NOW stolen???? Hmmm, :DQuote:

hmmmm, care to elaborate?
errr NOT stolen :).
EDIT: Guess it's one of those times that spelling really does count.:D
I might be getting one... but...
I have at least $500 coming to me in the form of a mileage check from work, plus the $200 I had already set aside for an upgrade. I was originally planning on spending the $200 on 512MB PC3200 and a 2500. But, with almost $700 now, I may make the leap. But I may also get the 2500 and 1GB, and a 9800. Don't know though, still debating.
Any help...
A64, mobo, 512MB PC3200, or...
2500, 1GB, 9800 - I think this is the smartest all around move, but an A64 would be nice.
Go with the 2500+, 1GB 9800 and give the A64 time to mature and them to get rid of all the bugs.;)Quote:

Wow nice, where'd you function that? (I want I want!)
I've got $$$ to burn and was gonna get it together with a 9800XT BUT the C man talked me outta it!!!;) Blame him for nobody at SF getting it (I would have been the 1st :p ) HeHeHe!:D Actually, what he told me made sense, wait for the cpu and mobo to mature - all bugs worked out - before getting it. C man's the man to talk to when you're hellbent on spending $$$.:p :D Thanks C man for bringing back some sanity to me.:D
It's tempting to buy it, try it, then ebay it. :)

Well does that mean you're getting a XT? ;) And even if you did get the A64, would you unlazy yourself enough to put it together? Have you put that SLK on yet?
On the other hand you should get it! Be the first here to have one (bragging rights) and put an AMD rig in the top 10 again! *starts voodoo chants*
so you're friend who works in retail is chargin you $50 huh?Quote:

Well, as I don't turn 18 till November 1st (ONE DAY AFTER THE SALE :mad:) they won't let me do it. So I told a co-worker that I would pay him $50 and do it for him. The way I look at it...I sell windows xp and make up the difference :).Quote:

Damn that sucks! Gotta be 18 huh? Still a good deal nonetheless. I'd sell the board too. Get a 3.0Ghz for $100. get yourself an oc'ing board for sure.Quote:

[peer pressure]Do it, do it, do it[/peer pressure]
The rig I have now will last me for another year or two, especially when I get 2x512 Buffalo Tech and the Revo to go with some Ultra's:D
Maybe when A64 is nearing it's death I'll finally build one, lol.
Voodoo chants won't work on me, the Force is strong in me - was Yoda's disciple y'know. :p I DID see the Nokia NGage and I'm intrigued, gfx's quite good too. I'll prolly get that and put-off the 64 purchase till next year. The NGage's just to satisfy my urge to splurge.:o :DQuote:

Well, I'll probably end up getting the parts at the end of october, I'll sell them and buy the A64 if no one has one by then.Quote:

On young Jedi, I dont know if I would go with someone that is that young to the industy.. I would wait to see how the drivers are working out in compatability before jumping on a new maker :)
I would rather have a slower card with stable drivers then a faster card with crap drivers :D
The card looks impressive in 3Dmarks, but that doesnt show real world performance.

I wanted to buy one, but decided not to. My Barton 2500 is fine and should last me till A64/FX matures
