From all the hullabaloo on the interwebs, it's a good card. If found at the right price, 2 can be had for about the same price as a 5870. Of course the price is going to up by 50$ by the end of the week due to supply and demand.

(it's a discus...PUNTASTIC)

iv been reading the same thing about the price:performance ratio on this guy, i guess with a slight oc it can beat a 5850. so 2 in sli would surly at least keep up if not pass a 5870

and what if you oc the 5850 as well?

Maybe we'll finally see some price drops on the Ati side of things.

Woah, slow down, that's crazy talk! We'll just wait and see what MB's price is before we pass local judgement.

how would my overclocked vintage voodoo 3 2000 compare lol, 421 in 3dm06!

SCII Next week - 460 performs better plus allows forcing AA in CP - Sell 5850, buy 460, have money left over for beer - drop off face of earth until SCII is beaten (or beer supply runs out).

Dr Bend what version of 5850 ya got?

I should have held off from buying my GTX 470
