    It seems that every item listed for GameVE is out of stock -- at least the ones I checked....

    Bummer.

    argh definitely you got a problem... all memory prices are 0.0 just OCZ is 2.95 which is also wrong obviously...
    your bots messed up?

    #11 - Yeah, go for the Pro versions. Definately good cards. Their drivers are fine.

    I have heard that ATI should be avoided due to bad drivers and such, thus causing problems with gaming. However, ATI seems so attrative right now. Should I go for the 9500/9600??

    I just wanted to mention real quick, if the merchants seem drastically wrong, its a problem on our end not the merchants. All of the merchants are browsed by AnandTech bots, rather than grabbed from some PriceWatch database (or something of the like). Sometimes, if a every price on a merchant is off, their webpage probably changed.

    The problem we had was that the MonarchComputer webpage changed, and since one of our interns was logged into the system it never warned us. The resulting error was every Monarch link was posted at 30 bucks. For those of you who track the system closely, this happened to another merchant about 2 weeks ago before we put the warnings in.

    In anycase, we have multiple levels of monitoring now, we should be in much better shape for these occurances.

    Thanks for your patience!

    #7 / #8, this is a temporary bug on our end. Something really silly (like an editor forgetting to log out of the price guide backend). We have put stops in to prevent this from happening again.

    Thanks for the input!

    Agree with previous comment about Monarch. Credibility of the price guide suffers when hijacked by unscrupulous vendors. Anandtech ought to "filter" out such listings.

    Monarch all prices at $30. I don't think it's a bug, since it affects no other merchant. If you follow the link the real price is revealed at the true rate (which isn't $30, trust me).

    I say it is no coincidence, and would rather see true pricing from honest merchants.

    Many of the prices from Monarch Computers Systems have the price listed as $30 which is wrong. This includes several Intel and AMD processors. Maybe a bug?

    Hey in the nVidia based video card pricelist you forgot to mention the eVGA 5900 card its alot cheaper than the Albatron's 5900! The Albatron is 343$ at GameVE, but the eVGA 5900 its 249$!!

    I am going to delist Compubuzz.com
  • Anonymous User - Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - link

    How do you select vendors "with generally positive feedback from a decent number of consumers"? It seems that compubuzz.com has a lot of unfavorable feedback at resellerratings.com, yet they managed to grab half of the AMD CPU listings in this guide...

    Is there a good way to find low profile memory?
