Just got my card this morning. Going to put it in in a few hours. I will post results later. I ordered on 11/25 and received it 12/9. Not bad.. Now I need to call and have the 90.05 installation charge removed. Has any one had any trouble getting it removed?

It was maybe 6300-6400'ish or so.

My desktop radeon 9800 pro only did about 5500, so im pretty pleased with this new laptop card.

yeah jmx, i have a desktop with the 9800 pro card as well (which i will probably upgrade to the x800 in Jan) and it benches much less at default speeds than the mr9800 at default speeds. So i'm happy as well

Ordered it on 11/05 and finally got it this morning.

Now for phase 2: Install myself and get the installation fee cancelled.

Finally !!!

Got my card (found it on the door steps ). Anyway, now the screwdrivers that I had were much bigger than the requirements. But there was just no way I was going to waste some more time trying to get one that'll fit.

So, in the process, what I discovered is that don't listen to what Dell says, you just need a sharp knife and you can install the card.

Bring on half life 2

For all of you who got the mr9800, was your card's status stay as "In-Production" (With no checks below it) than suddenly became "Shipped"?

Coz mine is staying as "In-Production" (no kitting, build...) since the day i ordered it, it looks like it is gonna get delayed or something...

Yeah, that's how it happened for me. In fact, the shipment happened two days before the status got changed.

I see....than I hope I will get the email from Dell sooner...I can't wait for this baby anymore.....

In fact, I also called Dell many times to check the status....it keeps telling me that the card is in the "build" stage....I think I haven't ever wait that long in my life before.

well let's just hope that when the new ixps2 with the mobile x800 comes out, that they don't stop making the mr9800

but that is a possibility...

Congratulations!! Actually, besides the delay notice, I called Dell today and the guy told me that my package is ready to be shipped tomorrow...he even gave me the tracking number, let's hope that is ture......

I have waited for 33 days...pretty bad compare with others that can get it within 1-2 weeks...

Dell promised to send it by 'Next Business day Delivery'. But I check the tracking # and DHL said Dell choosed 'GROUND service'. Contacted Dell and got a $35 coupon for my un fortunate.
