down date

I was just reading that 5000 chips from AMD where going to be available soon because off yields getting better when I got a mail that my video card is just delayed another 4 months

so I looked if there was any card available at another store and the only thing I could find is the 5870 from sapphire and that is imo the ugliest card I have ever seen. So my question is if I could pull the sticker off would it be like an normal 5870 and would that void the warranty

I would really like to hear your toughs about this because there is really no other option I can think off besides then the plan I just explained

pleaseeeee help me
