I will, I got next day delivery on them. I'll run any benchmark you guys want.

You can't compare to EOL cards... otherwise a 5870 would be the best buy of all time
No GTX470 owns the 5870 with Tesselation DX11.
Perplexing that cards are up before reviews. . .

You should be hired by the green marketing team. Your spin-fu is awesome!
Don't stop there, go further - it's almost 100% more expensive than a GTX460. Gonna have to be one fast card.
I would imagine its because regardless of how many cards sell right this second none will be shipping until tomorrow anyways.

Ok then...almost 40% more than a 5870, better be one fast card.You should be hired by the green marketing team. Your spin-fu is awesome!

But why not compare with a pair of 460's? That would be faster, right? I don't see why a card available in retail at a discounted price can't be compared to a day one release.
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.

And IRL games the 5870 is way in front
The only thing that worried me about the 6970 was the price tag if it was as the rumors suggested " 450$ " then that wouldn't be a very appealing card.
Now this is out of the way, we need some serious benching CFX and all I need to buy new Card/s soon.

Better? --On AIR
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
yeah yeah.. check out the prices for the 5870... they have yet to drop

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?
this is from one of Polish site in4.pl one more hour to review
overclocking sucks

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