    From what I can see, around ATI is supposed to be shipping them on 9/19/2002, if not a couple days earlier. You could pre-order on www.ebgames.com

    Later

              :cool: What percentage of people do you think will wait for the GeForce 5 rather than buy the 9700? Will the 5 also run in the $400 USD range?

                I will wait ...i wanna see both go head ti head and see how they comapre to each other before anything happens. I think the nVidia's 5 series will be more expensive...they always are more costly that ATi.

                  The usual start off price for the latest video card has been $395 usd approx. Here that usually equates to around $975 aus. :smokin:

                    :cool: I will also probably wait. If lots of people wait, ATI won't have many sales to start with. :(

                      I wouldn't buy a Radeon9700 or a GF5 for $400US

                      Prices usually drop by 10-25% a month or two after the release, I'm not going to run out & buy the first one I see.

                      I'll wait until I decide I need/want a new video card & then get the best price/performance/deal I can find.

                      waiting for the "next" thing is a fools game...there's always something better on the horizon.

                      I suppose that's easy for me to say since the money for my hardware rarely comes from my own pocket :D

                          nVidia's NV30 will NOT be called GeForce 5 !!!
                          I can't remember the URL, but nVidia publicly announced that the NV30 would not be called "GeForce5" because it does not have the same "GeForce" architecture !!!

                            That's entirely possible too. ;)
