I am afraid all EVGA Geforce 7900 GTX SUPERCLOCKER were sold out, I searched every stores for you. Alternative you could buy the normal version clocked 650MHz for $563 (http://www.spacecentersystems.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/321476) now in stock and overclock it to 690MHz.

Thanks Athlon, I've been shopping every store in search of a EVGA SC, but no dice. Keith when did EVGA ship them, how soon will Newegg have them, if you know?

I've had the 7900 search on newegg on my homepage for the past 2 days now.

They're shipping out RMAs right now (mine is on the UPS truck... hopefully) so I'm assuming all the rest are going to retailers as we speak.

Well being as I have everything already and reading multiple EVGA SC issue threads..., newegg had a XFX Extreme in stock so I grabbed that bad boy. Was trying to pair it my other EVGA brand, not a problem, XFX it is(nana2)

You heard about the lowered Delta clocks on those cards right?

Yes, I've "heard" about it. Every company does it. I havn't seen the BIOS for both cards, so I can't be completly sure about people saying this. I'd have to lean towards the fact that EVGA does not do this due to the massive issues with their SC cards and I'd like to have a more stable card even though the delta is smaller. The bottomline is the ROP/shader clock is 690 mhz on both of them, the vertex clock is the 35 mhz difference which will get no performance gains in newer shader intensive games, and I'm sure right now you can't see any difference between a XFX Extreme vs. a EVGA SC. I can always increase the delta and go from there, but like I said, the SC will most likely have problems due to the vertex clock doing excessive work which is most likely whats happening at the moment. So a more stable card is fit for me...

I also don't know when the SC cards will be readily available. Monarch has ETA of April 27th, newegg has March 31st, I've heard evga won't have more ready until the end of April, and I don't have time to refresh newegg 24/7 to pick up one of the few they might get.
