Well, X800 XL is gonna extinct. The X800 Series will be replace by X800 GT, X800 GTO, and X800 GTO^2. It's sorta weird... but that's what it turns out.

Is the X800 GTO available in M'sia?? Think not.

Where did PowerColor post about X800 GTO?? Didn't find it on their website. http://www.tul.com.tw

But I did found out that Gecube has already listed a x800GTO AGP on their website. Look it up here:

Found out from the net, it seems that GTO^2 is the version X800GTO that can be unlock.

On 15 Septemeber, ATI has just released X800GTO in US and Canada, with Gecube, PowerColor, HSI, Sapphire and Mobo makers (ASUS, MSI, ABIT, Gigabyte...). The list can be found on ATI website.

If you search in Gecube website, you can see that Gecube has released a version on X800GTO in AGP. http://www.gecube.com/products-02.php?prod...prod_cat_id=134. Though it is listed on their website, but chances that one can get one in M'sia is pretty low as ATI will be pushing hard for R5-series VPU line.

As for nVidia G7-series, no AGP version card is planned since the beginning of development as it has been stated by their CEO, Mr Hwang, as he think that more and more users will be migrating to PCIe mobo as chipset manufacturers (from both camps) are pushing the new platform aggressively.

From the pricelist spotted on hardwarezone, there's only Sapphire's X800 GT available (128MB/256MB). What about the other brand? Gecube, PowerColor, and HIS???
