Where to buy 6800 go ultra?

I thought I had read people say that you could buy them from dell, but I couldn't find them there =/

So I checked ebay: no luck again.

So where have people seen the actual cards for sale? I'm thinking about buying one if the non-ultra doesn't live up to its expectations. Assuming it is cost somewhere around $450, and I can sell the non-ultra for a couple hundred, I'd have an xps2 quality system for $1600ish, which would kick ass.

So any help would be appreciated.

doubt it. the I9300 will not support the ultra due to the power consumption. Search the forum, there was a thread about this before.

Ignore this thread.

You can do it, but you are going to need a bios mod, XPS PSU and Battery (9 cell) 6800 Ultra, $422 with tax and I believe an XPS northbridge cooler.

Speaking of the 6800go (non-ultra), does anyone have the Dell part number for that? I've had to be in contact with a senior support manager in the corporate office due to an exchange and asked about purchasing the card, but she was unable to find it in the system--all she could find was the $500 dollar overclocked Ultra card that's AGP. She's calling in the morning and I would appreciate having the part number so we can go from there. For reference, it's not W5373.

Thanks in advance,
