Less than many were expecting though to be honest. Whether it's a good deal is still open to question as this is more expensive than buying two indiviudal 3870s (although clearly there are additional benefits to this card which may warrant the extra cost).

Need something clarified here, which boards are currently able to support two of these in crossfire (crossfireX) - pending the required drivers that is? Will any x38 board suffice?
I always hoped they would be better, but it seems your better of just getting an 8800gts 512mb for they money really (as in "better bang for buck").
If you want the best, I don't think buying 1 3870x2 comes into it really. Buying 2 3870x2's might be interesting if - and only if - they scale better than tri/quad SLI.

I read somewhere someone was saying that nv have to downscale the gx2 as it was getting too hot and they couldnt keep the temps down so dont get your hopes up just yet.
