:rofl:
I would imagine its because regardless of how many cards sell right this second none will be shipping until tomorrow anyways.Quote:

I don't care who makes a better card, just the value.
Because price grows exponentially in relation to linear performance increase. Why not wait for reviews and just compare it to cards it directly competes with?
And just like that, all the tags are gone. :rofl:
And IRL games the 5870 is way in frontQuote:

Now this is out of the way, we need some serious benching CFX and all I need to buy new Card/s soon.
Yeah $450 would've been bad, but $370 is nuts. 5870 pricing pre-gouging...
Supposedly Gibbo @ OCUK has already sold more stock of 69xx cards in the few hours he's had it up than all the 570's or maybe it was 580's since their release. Impressive.
I guess price really does matter a lot

Ok guys I have a stupid question and forgive me if I sound like an idiot...
But how do I hook up the card if it has a 6 and 8 pin connector? My PSU only has two 6 pin connectors...(PC P&C 750W)...
Does the card come with some sort of adapter or am I SOL?

They have 4 pin molex adapters in the box, but to be honest you should get a new psu.Quote:
