Wonder what happened to the Powercolour 5970s, quite a few changed their order from other brands to those last week as stock was firmly anticipated on the 17th...it now says overdue...

If you've placed an order for Asus, I would recommend changing to another Brand due to shortages and lack of updates.

Well I could change to another brand, like sapphire, but I don't want to pay more.

If you change, you would get the card a lot sooner than Asus. You are looking at over a month to recieve you card.

Hows the 5850 Crossfire working out for you mate? I'm tempted to get a single 5850 instead of waiting for the 5870..

jujuman · 21 Dec 2009 at 16:50

just got a webnote reply saying the sapphire 5970 have not arrived yet..........

Looks like the New Year then.........

Peace all.

Tom B · 21 Dec 2009 at 16:59

I'm guessing that's the same for the XFX 5870s?

MannY · 21 Dec 2009 at 17:13

hanrak · 21 Dec 2009 at 17:19

They are awesome, runs very fast and relatively cool.
You can easily clock 5850 to run at 5870 stock speed

I'm so impressed that I actually ordered two more for my brother, I cba waiting for the 5870.

Awesome! How noisy do the stock fans run keeping it cool at 5870 speeds?

Wish people with more money than sense would stop buying all these cards so everyone could buy one for the price they are actually ment to be being sold for.

And what price are they meant to be sold for???

Man petrol was cheap in the 80s

LoadsaMoney · 21 Dec 2009 at 23:29

Blimey there are Asus cards about, just seen some 5970's in stock elsewhere, and some XFX XXX 5870's.

To be honest with you, I can hardly hear it over my CPU/Case Fans.
It is that silent

Is that the Asus 5970 that is stupidly stupidly overpriced in the mid £500s?
