Update on Radeon 7970m (Sager/Resellers)

[namerof]

I hope that means Mythlogic will be receiving theirs soon.

Just chatted with Mythlogic. They have yet to see one. Hoping to get them sometime this week.

The original shipment with the AMD 7970M is already allocated to pre-orders, so new orders will have to wait until the next shipment sometime toward the end of this month.

Wait is this shipment that Sager is talking about coming tmrw the laptops that are already assembled or to the resellers to assemble the laptops?

The 2nd shipment is expected in on or around the 24th. (Which is expected to be a larger shipment)

[Ancientbarb]

So people who have preordered before today is tied to the first shipment?

Justin@XoticPC any info about Enduro now that you seem to have the card? :P

Correct me if I'm wrong Justin, but isn't that screenshot provided by Sager itself.. which would mean the card hasn't yet reached you and it is still with them?

Justin,

Once your systems are back up, will we be able to check our place in the queue (as well as see if we make the first or second shipment?). I was told my order was priority but I don't know if that means I make the first shipment or not

Heh, this thread started out as Malibal having the cards on the 11th but it looks like the other resellers will have them first. Hope no one placed an order with Malibal based on the 11th date they floated out there.

If I order around April 30th Is this first or second shipment? I waited so long....

Yes that is correct, customers who pre ordered get first allocation.

I will post some more benchmarks as they become available from Sager. Sager is doing this testing and providing the details. (Since the card is still going through QA @ Sager)

That is correct

I am sorry with the vast amount of people that have ordered we are not able to assign numbers or advise where a customer is in the queue of orders. What I can tell you is orders will go into production in the order they were submitted and shipped once testing is complete.

Heh, this thread started out as Malibal having the cards on the 11th but it looks like the other resellers will have them first. Hope no one placed an order with Malibal based on the 11th date they floated out there.

If you look through history here on the forums this happens with every release, there are some that jump the gun. Sager has always been the first to ship.

If I order around April 30th Is this first or second shipment? I waited so long....

I am sorry unfortunately there is no way to tell until orders start going through production. Orders will be shipping as I replied above to thegoods81 above.
