i dont get why ppl want a particular brand of a 5 series card?

Every make of card is the same spec card with the same stock cooler as far as i know?

And lets face it apart from BFG and maybe sapphire most RMAs are a pain with most companys to sort out if thats the reason wanting a decent warranty,if it was me and ive been waiting for ages for a card i would snap fatboys hand off for one when he comes on here offering the spare card to ppl on here.
The delay of these cards will go well into the new year i imagine, so you guys could be waiting a long time to get priority for a card.

No worries I understand. To be fair I have no eta on any stock at all 5850 or 5870. All the cards are the same so you are getting the same part no matter what AIB you go for.

First time poster. I just made an order OC913505.

Could you change it so that the graphic card ships as soon as you get one of the 5850 cards from any manufacturer! I will gladly pay the extra (in the price range of 1-50£) if the card i get is worth more OR if I can get the card faster I don't mind if you change my order to somewhat cheaper card instead.

I do not know how this order chaging works but if you could get my first time order from you faster to me I would really apreciate it!:)

XFX and Asus have decent RMA procedures now from what I have read and the longer warranty means better resale value in 12months time.

I understand there all the same part as such but am holding out for the same reasons Creed mentions. Thanks again for the quick reply, makes a difference when you can get info like this direct from a retailer.

I have the card for you on my desk. The funds should be back in your account tomorrow so if you call me I can arrange it so that you get this very card.
