pezcore Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 (edited) awww, that's awesome though. was it the same contest bosco posted a link to?? Yeah, I think he linked to Sapphire's website, so I signed up to be in their Select Club and entered all the contests. Oh, for what it's worth, MSRP is $379.99-- so that street price is looking good Edited October 1, 2009 by pezcore Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pezcore Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 (edited) So I have to decide... sell the GTX275 and run this? sell the GTX275 and run a 2nd one of these in CrossFire? [gotta upgrade from UD3R to UD3P] sell the GTX275 and run the 5850 with something else as a PhysX card? sell the 5850? win more contests?

tkrow21 Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 win more contests? Totally do that. It's totally up to you. lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IVIYTH0S Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 (edited) sell the GTX275 and run the 5850 with something else as a PhysX card? win more contests? ^these two then give the other card to me , or I'll give you your 8800GT back for the 5850 . so you can have a full nvidia rig...wouldn't want the 5850 cramping your style or nothing.

IVIYTH0S Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 (edited) IVI i suggest we duel for it lol, you could have it. I <3 my 4870x2 too much right now, as much as I'd like the length and wattage reduction. I don't want to lose any performance, and recently the 4870x2 has shown impressive scaling recently. (plus it's nice justifying the 750W with all the stuff I'm running) Edited October 1, 2009 by IVIYTH0S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waco Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 hopefully not in place of the 4870x2 Yup. And why not? That 610w unit sure deserves some slack by now I'm pulling nowhere near that under load. :shrug: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.E.A Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 (edited) looks great but i why did not they make it with cover on the back like the 5870 but it looks really nice .. http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.aspx?i=3651&p=7 read that , gt300 will be priced well unlike gtx 200 Edited October 1, 2009 by N.E.A Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
molotovdaskwerl Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 (edited) guys... brilliant idea if he don't want his 5850, we should have a MW tourney for it or another popular game, like counterstrike or i can just take it ooorrrr... i'll trade you you're very own cloud for it Edited October 1, 2009 by molotovdaskwerl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rourkchris Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 Looks like they're out of stock already. Hopefully other manufacturers will release their's later tonight or tomorrow. It looks just like the 5870 launch. A handful now and next week they'll have some stock numbers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IVIYTH0S Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 Yup. I'm pulling nowhere near that under load. :shrug: Don't make the same mistake like I did with the 4890 lol, and alot of people don't realize how far a good ~600W PSU can take one. guys... brilliant ideaif he don't want his 5850, we should have a MW tourney for it or another popular game, like counterstrike or i can just take it ooorrrr... i'll trade you you're very own cloud for it BF2 or GTFO lol i was 2 seconds away from clicking Purchase in my newegg cart sure ya were...
