    LOL, I called the price increase a long time ago. Only AMD fanboys like Abeljemka believed it would stay there. $499-> $599. That really significant. I am surprised noone is crying a foul as NV the only company with $600 dollar high ends supposedly.

    Man people need to see AMD is doing wrong here. They increased the price by 100 dollars and they lowered performance on the clocks by 17% and memory clocks by 20%. Alot of people expected 5870 clocks at a 499 price point. Some were even expecting the 5970 to be clocked higher than the 5870.

    If this was an NV thread, people would be up in arms about this. But instead since its AMD, people are already salivating.
