I had a very bad shopping day, the shop I was aiming for looking for the card was no longer there, nowhere else similar had a clearance area :( I was also looking for a game for cheap, and had even less luck :( MM it will have to be for me :)

the said shop i got mine from don't have clearance sections but instead stick a small label over the original with all the other full price stuff.
BTW the fan on this 4870 goes to 3800rpm lol at 100% it's like a jumbo taking off but running benchies and games it never seems to go above 40% and the temp stays about 46 idle and 78 when running furmark or other high stress benchmarks

doesn't really matter, there was a distinct lack of hardware to be found :)
 
Oh also just experienced my first ever go of crysis (old card wouldn't run it for some reason) and it's awesome just my cpu and mobo holding me back now i think
