*** Further Updates ***

Powercolor 5850 will be here today and currently every person (60 orders) who has a back order on will receive one. There is a small possibility that I will be receiving another 30 pcs if both my back orders arrive today will update later.

I have Powercolor 5870 Dirt2 Edition in stock today and again all back orders will be shipping with 57 pcs available in free stock.

I have Powercolor 5870 standard clock in stock today all back orders will be shipping today I have 45 pcs available in free allocation.

I have HIS 5850 arriving today all back orders will be met and there are currently 4 cards remaining in free allocation.

I have 4 Asus 5870 arriving today and unfortunately over 30 back orders so its a case of first come first served and there is no free allocation here and can not see any comming in for the next week or so.

XFX 5850 is arriving today but only 20 pcs these are also all oversold but pretty much all back orders will be shipping today.

Just come off the phone with Sapphire also and there is another load of 5850's on the way just waiting for PI and confirmation of quantity.

Will keep you posted as the day progresses.

Nothing is for definate m8 until i book them up. They could have sent me a box of frogs instead of graphics cards.

Are the frogs faster or slower than a 5850? Got any links to any reviews?

Keep the updates coming then and let me know if they are 5850's. Thanks. You're doing great work.
