My Powercolor arrived in the post today and it was a fiver cheaper so not too fussed about that or the xfx's in tomoz. Can imagine these will disappear pretty quickly still.

Starting to wish id waited for one of these than put up with the trouble ive had with defective gtx 295's.

 

[littlepuppy]

What sort of problems have you had mate?

 

[will0812]

Price is still too high, seen XFX 5850 XXX edition for less and they were in stock.

 

[Gerard]

What sort of problems have you had mate?

So far 3 defective 295's.

 

[littlepuppy]

What in particular though fans, graphis memory DOA? Ive used 3 in builds for me / others, no probs so just interested to what sort of issues you have had, any signs of probs?

 

[PakJai]

You should get a refund and then get 2 of these bad boys

While I've seen them for the original RRP the simple fact is all the places I've checked recently show stock of neither 5850 or 5870 and since ATi are so slow to take advantage of the demand then prices will remain high.

 

[littlepuppy]

Looks to me like avaliability of all 5*** series cards is improving, a number of etailers now have stock if ou are willing to pay about 20% more than the launch price....

 

[Disjunto]

ooo, nice price drop, getting there. now only £230 inc

Sorry, could you explain this comment a bit further? Because it looks like you are accusing AMD/ATi of deliberately not supplying cards to the market for some nefarious reason of their own. I can assure you that they would have supplied every card that the market wanted if they could and AMD executives wake every morning with a small curse for TSMC.

Just so you aren't under any false dellusions, I know full well about TSMC problems and no I'm not implying that it is ATi's intentions to restrict the flow of cards but it is the result.

 

[BigBruiserAl]

soon as these drop another 29.99 ill buying 2 me thinks

ocuk should do a if you buy 2 at the same time 10% discount or such ?

Thats fine, but your original comment definitely implies you were. As for me, all my delusions are real

 

[magicoi]

Am i missing something here? This thread prices it at £249.99 whereas the web price at ocuk is £229.99 .....

Is dirt2 still shipping with the 5*** series cards?

If so i might just have to buy one now!

 

[littlepuppy]

This looks a very fair price to me now....

 

[nitram100]

Is it possible to change my order of 2 xfx 5850's over to 2 sapphire 5850's? Order number OC940143.

Today but with pre-orders there is only going to be a small amount of free stock. The Best bet is either Powercolr 5870 Dirt 2 or any of the XFX 5*** cards.
