Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
In the same boat as you ^. After the the X1800XTs 256 disappeared I am seriously looking at the X1900GT, you get the same or better performance in some cases, more OC headroom, 36 pixel shader units...I think you can pick one up for about the same price as those X1800s.
I would try looking on eBay for the 256 X1800XTs if you really insist.
1900pro is supposed to come out on October for $200... Faster and probably runs cooler than 1900gt since it's build on 80nm... Who knows this can probably hit 1900xt speeds with the right voltage and cooler..
