*** ATi 5870 Launch - In Stock & Ready to Ship ***

[Randell]

8800GT too?

How about the poor numbers of 275s too?

going back a bit they announced the Gf4ti4200 in Feb 03 I think??, and stock didn't appear until May. They had the high ground with the Gf4 but the low price of the 8500LE had them beat in the mid ground at £150, but they had people waiting 3 months in order to get that sector back. Then again paper launches and waiting for stock was the norm until the Geforce 6xxxx series

hang on a minute, there is people in this thread saying they ordered at at 0830, and their card has been shipped yet i ordered at 0722 and mine has not.

Its because you already have a pair of 295's you greedy *******

It could be alphabetical ordering system

Why don't you just read some reviews?!

It's about 20-30FPS faster, basically the same difference you saw from 4850 - 4870.

Money tight?

Get the 5870

Of course, the 5850 at 200 is a cracking card and obliterates the 285.
