The product features 128MB of DDR SDRAM memory has an estimated retail price of $399. The pre-order program begins today and is scheduled to run through March 31st. VisionTek's resellers will accept pre-orders only as long as allocated product is available. Product orders will be filled on a first come, first served basis. Valid pre-orders are scheduled to be shipped from resellers to consumers on March 31st.

If you want to get the RADEON 9800 PRO graphics card among the first, you should pre-order it, as no such graphics cards are expected to be available in retail or e-tail stores until the second week of April as a source inside the channel indicated. It is also possible that even after the specified date the quantity of RADEON 9800 PRO graphics cards will be limited, as another unofficial source said.
