ok, i am now a full green team man, i have renounced my AMD past and will stick a pair of these in my new system, after seeing a single card hit 40 fps in surround, a pair will keep me going strong at over 60 fps in every game.

(maybe i might pick up a third down the track)

Looks like nvidia cleaned house this round. AMD better step it up. Even more of a reason to go the way of the green team next upgrade.

An incredible card for an incredible price. There's no reason to buy an AMD card anymore!

It looks like this will be in my next rig, if I can find one in stock. I keep refreshing Newegg to see if they are listed yet. No idea how long that is going to take. I might break off my F5 key first.. :thumbsup: :lol:

well simply the fact i can crush your rig with a single one =P

on a serious note, the stupid prices for them locally has been a real turnoff, so i think some 670s will fit the bill much more nicely.

Sorry man. I know there is a specific Amazon.co.uk, but I don't know about other parts of the world. Its still in stock here in the US as of now.

I got the EVGA stock model (02G-P4-2670-KR) for $399.99 w/ free 2 day free shipping (thanks to my Amazon Prime account).
Definitely glad I waited a bit. I'll be playing at 1920x1080, so one will work great for me. I'm sure it will blow away my Radeon HD 5870! I can't wait for nvidia drivers support again :wub:.
