Man! They sold out fast! I guess I'm still holding tight... Ha! I'm so weak - I would have dumped PC Nation in a heartbeat... Amazon, you're next...

Pulled trigger on tigerdirect as well. 25$ in shipping but no tax in my state. Not as good as the 8$ shipping from newegg.

I paid for it when the status still said available. How do I find out if they are actually going to ship it or if its a preorder?

Doesn't TD have a "Check order status" or similar?

I just saw now that my order status went from a "Preorder" number to an actual "Order" number and is still listed as in the "packaging" state along with another item I bought. I'm starting to believe now it might actually get shipped tomorrow...

You guys gotta stop ... I'm getting nervous :3
I'm in drop shipper status from my 9 am saturday order from Tiger Direct .... ive been reading what others are saying on other forums... some good , some bad, i'm HOPING... I get some kind of info tomorrow that it shipped... when I ordered it said est. delivery thurs. I haven't seen anything that im in backorder... also.... there is still a $15 discount off orders over $100 from tiger direct till 9/30.... I got charged 20 for shipping, but after discount... I paid $ 805 and some change, no tax to Maryland.... If I get stuck in back order... ill guess i will see if I can cancel... to get money back into my paypal account... I don't have the money to order a 2nd and then try to cancel, I missed the Newegg ones that sold today, was stuck at work.....

All the games i played at max settings went smooth as butter except for minor stuttering in BF4 which could be due to me having the 2GB versions of my 680s at 1440p on ultra. I plan on upgrading to the 800 series with more vram which should be soon if the rumors hold true.

im trying to hold out for a 900 series card equivalent to a Titan today. i also have 2gb cards in mine, uninstalled BF4 though BF3 was amazing and 4 was a big let down in my books. I don't think i'm playing anything too intense atm, just, heroes and general, lol, dayz standalone, cs:go, black ops 2 and a couple zombie apocalypse style games... on the horizon though, Far Cry 4, GTA... they will stretch the 2GB of mirrored Vram... i will only get cards when they're brand new... so we will see with this 800 series. ideally i don't want SLI, just one big ****off card lol
