Not for sale I am afraid, we've had it for many years, kind of one those things which has a sentimental value to the company.

I believe they still have them. Dont quote me on that. Post in the CS area if you want a (faster) response.
Games still available, we've got a load more games in so won't be an issue for a week or so.
As someone mentioned above is the new sim city still included ? I've seen it mentioned a few times but can't see it on the original list at the min.
Always been tempted to upgrade the card in my htpc and these deals make it a no brainer

It's 100% DOA...
'Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)'
Also tried both BIOS's in both PCIEX slots and still the same result, the other 7950 works fine in either slot.

I havent fitted my 7950 yet hope its all good, went to redeem the bioshock, crysis 3 and blood dragon and they sent an email saying "There is a temporary delay in delivery of some game keys. The game key for this title will be coming soon. "
Great.
Great.

I had that email..... had to wait like 25 mins
Not installed mine yet, really hope it's ok.
Take it you tried the new card on its own, or only in Xfire?
Maybe a power issue.
Mine is also the 8+6 pin version, take it, this is better than 6+6 version.
Hope you get it sorted almighty15.
That was my thinking too man but no one answered the question so I ended up buying a 670 somewhere else!

Are the game codes shipped with the cards? Just ordered a 7990 and the wait till the 30th begins, hopefuuly will not run out of game codes whilst I wait for the card to come in
Also what comes bundled with the card? As I use hdmi and might need a display port to hdmi adapter
