LoadsaMoney said:I still don't see what the problem is, you don't see the 512mb GTX owners complaining, they have paid more, and their card has lasted less than the x1800, it didn't come into stock until after christmas, and thats been phased out after about 1x shipment where as the x1800's have been shipping in good quantities for about 2 months.

Alty said:Im just wondering how fellow X1800 users feel having paid premium prices for their cards only to have the X1900 series released so soon after. I'm a lil miffed to say the least as the money I spent about a mere few months ago coulda just about paid for X1900XT.
How long were the X1800 out for before the X1900 came along anyway? I'll be damned if I am gonna be upgrading to the new series any time soon but whats annoyed me most is now there will be a shortage of X1800 XT Master Edition cards so I may not even get a chance to run Crossfire once I can afford to

chaparral said:The first xt1900xt-x buyers like myself are no better off..The card has lost £70 value in a few weeks...(£399 to £329 in about two weeks)
I remember buying my voodoo 5500agp for £230 some years ago and the company then went bust or whatever a few weeks later..That meant no more updated drivers etc.
