decided to crossfire the 5850, does it make a difference if i mix say powercolor with sapphire or other brands?

gurusan · 2 Oct 2009 at 13:10

no difference

toon_mad · 2 Oct 2009 at 13:14

might wait next week then see what comes in.

cheers

Whats the latest time I can swap to a 5870 so it comes in time for sat? Need to talk to a few ppl first

reading from the other treads i would stick with the 5850 if you can wait, you can overclock these badboys to equal the 5870's performance and in some cases beat it, according to the post/reviews ive seen.

Wouldn't leave it too late m8 to be fair. 5870's are nearly all gone. WOuld say about 4 would be the absolute latest.

*** Further Updates ***

Just worked out that after all back orders have shipped on the PowerColor part we will have 20 pcs spare.

On the Sapphire we will have 40 pcs Spare.

So (and I know that I'm probably stating the obvious but want to be as sure as possible), if I pre-order the Sapphire card now I will get one in Monday's batch?

Cheers for the updates.

Unless there is something out of my control that happens then yes you are safe to order one.

Fatboy, Sorry to be a pain in the ass, but if you get chance could you check that if you get your correct number of 5850`s there will be enough for my order - OC890896 (powercolor).

Thanks for your help.

As before. as long as everything that was promised arrives on time and without any issue you will be fine.
