Still ridiculously expensive... considering I may watercool my 480s if I get them, I may look at shipping in some HydroCoppers :-\ Unless it's cheaper to just get a normal card and a seperate block. I'd hate to imagine the markup on the HydroCoppers, if they even make it down here!

Just goes to show you how sad the situation is we pay the price of a GTX 480 and we Get the GTX 470 ??? And yet they probley consider that we should be thankful we can get stock at all something of which im sure EVGA is trying to draw attention to. And the step up well thats a privilege not a right as far as EVGA is concerned.
Unfortunatly the way you think your customers should think and they way they actually do can be some be vastly different.  From my point of view getting product to us is a legal responsibility you should not advertise a product you cannot supply particularly when people are asked to pre order because 99% of the time in Australia they don't have them in stock anyway(so whats the real point in having retailers when you may as well order them direct from an EVGA shop).
Second point if you cannot descriminate against a person because of race or religion then why can you decriminate against a person because of where they live ?? and further more actively create warranty preclusions if the person is willing to pay the postage to get it to another country
Third why should the customer then be responsible that if you send them a faulty unit you should then have to pay to send it back to the country of origin just because it is convenient for the company who sent you a faulty unit in the first place?
And my last point if a customer is paying more for your product... should they not be entitled to the same if not a better level of service than other countries who pay less. Particularly when your activley trying to create a market in a country, that from what I have noticed doesn't even know your company exists. And if this is the case why would you not try to get an EVGA product in EVERY gaming machine by any mean possible but you seem hell bent on pricing your self out of the market at any cost.
