At least is has enough Fillrate, although the Card was never a great success (Drivers I guess)

After all, it is one of the few Dual GPU designs ever built, and they're quite hard to get Retail and in good condition.

Well, last time I've seen it, it was still very expensive...

Since the results from this infamous Card have been, well... , "less than stellar" in many reviews, it seems most Resellers quickly abandoned it.

It's definitely something to look out for, but should be hard to get as of now (unless you find a Retailer that still sells it).

Chances are, one day some Shops might clear out their Stocks, but that'll be quite a while.
Since not many of them were ever sold in the first place, they will be definitely somewhat hard to get.

I've been looking into it as well (also wanted a Xabre-600), but the Volari's price tag always put me off in the past.
