Colleagues,

I have recieved 5 x XFX 5850 today which have now all shipped

I have 15 x Spare Gigabyte 5850 Arriving tomorrow

I have 60 x Spare XFX 5870 XT Edition avaialble arriving on Friday Monday. That is all the news I have at the moment.
 
Shame that the only ones that are coming in are the more expensive versions :(

Still, stock is better than no stock.
 
Fatboy.

Could I change my order, OC906382, for the new card and pay the difference?

I've also sent a webnote with this request and would be happy to pay the difference, I think it's £59.

Please let me know.

Thanks You
 
I've already paid an extra £10 to go from the Asus to the XFX which I was told was coming in last Friday. Unless they are going todrop the price on the Gigabyte for people that already have orders I'm going to continue to wait.

Price increases suck balls.

No idea what position I am on the list for an XFX. I didn't get an email today so mine isn't one of those 5.

While currently there are thousands of video cards shipped on a weekly basis, we will likely see this weekly number reach into the "tens of thousands" come late November or early December. This hinges on whether or not AIBs keep air freighting video cards. The likelihood of air shipments to continue is very high, but AMD does not directly control this.

so what they saying there is, low yields is a pile of crap, as supply will only pick up, if the partners air freight em :D

Out of interest, what's the latest turnaround? ie, period from preorder to shipment. Just so I have a rough idea.

Less than a month I hope...................
