I hope it comes soon. My X1900XT is already gone. I posted an ad at
CraigsList and the card was sold within a day. I had an old 8500 AIW
AGP card lying around and fortunately my motherboard takes both PCIe
and AGP.

What did you get for your old card if you don't mind me asking?

I got $100.

I just
installed a XFC "Alpha Dog Edition" 8800GT clocked at 670. I also had the
X1900XT in my PC and this new card doubles my FPS in everything I've thrown
at it.

Very nice to know. It'd be great to have a fast and relatively silent
performer.
