*** 5850 Updates ***

[Showboat]

Tremendous job fatboy, i had kinda hoped you would come back and say either "No 5850's arriving today" or "the driver rang the bell once and drove off when we didnt answer in 30secs"
The nerd rage would have been excellent

I seriously have to get one of these this week, I almost purchased a 5870 a few minutes ago

Tie your hands together with duct tape, you know a 5850 is a bargain!!

 

[Fatboy]

Are there any xfx 5850's left that are able to sent out today ?

I know it was nearly 2 hours ago that you said that there was 3 left but i'm hoping.

XFX are not in today. They are arriving tomorrow or Wednesday and they are all sold.

because like me thought they were the first lot in (last wednesday), the only reason i chose them - glad i swapped to sapphire now, feel sorry for the people who have a prolonged wait

Fatboy, any chance you could take a look at post 257 in this forum?

You do not even know our frustration , I thought I would be better going with powercolor to as it was the only card stating 100% that it comes with a Dirt 2 voucher

I am the powers that be. But I will give myself a pat on the back

 

[Jabbs]

^^ Thats the reason i never pre ordered a PC one for that reason i imagined everyone would go for the one that said Dirt2 with it.

[widnesjohn]

[toon_mad]

Correct colleague.

 

[toon_mad]

spot on mate.

 

[Russu_cs16]

Cant wait cant wait cant wait!!!!

i dont know...
1) Will 5850 fit into Storm scout?
2) What brand i go for? Sapphire or XFX?

 

[Fenny]

Fatboy, are the Sapphires still oversold? In the unlikely case that there is a Sapphire spare to ship in the place of my preordered Powecolor, can you switch it over please?

OC885647

I ordered a powercoler on your advice and decided against switching over to sapphire and sticking with my early order. And now I can only see powercoler being delayed further and further whilst late sapphire people get their cards before me.
