Our level of back orders isn't that bad. As you will see from my regular posts I am feeding the stock that we get into peoples orders. I would suggest that you place an order for a card then I can adjust your order to ensure you get a 5850 as quick as possible. People are not waiting that long at all I do not know the average but I would say a week at tops.

ive just bought the xfx 5850 from somewere else and got to say its a lot quieter that i thought it was going to be,fits nicely in my HTPC,now to put some of my games on and try it out,was a bit scared it wouldnt run on a corsair hx450 with a x4 athlon but runs fine

If it's not too much hassle for you, would you be able to adjust my order to whichever brand card you get in first? I ordered the Sapphire but I have no preference on brand so it would be annoying if another brand comes into stock and i miss out. My order number is OC910697. Don't worry if it's too much trouble though.

Cheers.

Colleagues,

Asus delivery has just arrived unfortunately it was short. I have shipped the first ten orders and I appologise to anyone who has not had there order shipped today. I am battling to get some more allocation but without success. I will do a post later with a full update.

 

[Roonaldo]

Did you get any Saphire?

 

[Fatboy]

Absolutely nothing. The only thing I ahve due this week from Sapphire is the 5870 Vapor X and they are over sold also.
