Although not all of the GTX 400 series cards from the initial wave have reached etailers yet, it looks like the bulk of the cards have come in and gone out the door. <a href="http://detonator.dynamitedata.com/cg...3d">Newegg</a>, <a href="http://search.zipzoomfly.com/search....ZipZoomFly</a>, and MWave all have had cards going in and out of stock all day long, while Best Buy and <a href="http://detonator.dynamitedata.com/cg...493801">Amazon </a>are still backordered/pre-ordering. Meanwhile pricing is highly variable with MSRP cards selling out quickly while you can still find and buy a card if you&#39;re willing to pay a $30-$50 premium.</p>

So who has what cards and where? Read on to find out.</p>
