No more Radeon 8500
« on: January 02, 2003, 12:54:36 PM »
Hmm, I've been trying to order a Radeon 8500 for my AOne XE from three different resellers in sweden and all of them has stopped shipping 8xxx class cards. All recommending me to order a 9xxx card, gah.

I'm doomed! It seems as if the 8xxx series is being discontinued. I hope that 9xxx drivers will appear soon after the launch of 4.0, since it seems I have no choice but to get a newer model card.

Ohh well..

It would be nice if forefront technologies would say something about what they think about the situation (that the 8xxx series is going out the door).

@Muffin

Yepp, they were the first I tried. Ordered at 10th of december.  The Radeon 8500 was marked on that order as not available at the 28th of december.
