I can't repeat what I thought when I read your post. I think I will phone to confirm this is true for pre-orders (ordered 12th Jan). If so, then it looks like I will be cancelling my pre-order and looking at something else.

These 5970's are a complete joke when you consider they came out in November :mad:

Oh well, as long as whatever I get, can play Mass Effect 2 in all its glory.
 
I think they will come back instock with the arrival of Fermi. I think ATI may release some more editions, change the price or refresh clock speeds.
 
February is going to be a bad month for all 5*** cards. Chinese new year and problems in production will virtually make supply next to nil until late February early March. I ave some 5970 on the way but no free stock I am afraid. If you post me your order number I will advise if you need to change or if I think you will see a card in the next 7 - 10 days.

As always I will try my best to sort everyone with back orders you will just have to bare with me until I know exactly what is what and I can confirm what we will receive.

Thanks.

Ok, This is 'NEW' news to me. The guy on your front desk this afternoon, spoke to the 'Purchaser' and said End of Feb/March. If your telling me now that you have some coming in in 7-10 days I aint going to be too chuffed about it as I was recommended to 'Change' my order. My original order was OC955430 (Placed 6th January 2010). The changes I have made will be sent back under the DSR policy that you have in place. So what do you want me to do? Ring you in the morning? Or something else?

I'm spitting feathers at the moment...................

OC958957 - Would really appreciate knowing if I have a chance of a 5970 card in the next 7 to 10 days. I would also be happy to change brand (min. two year warranty) if that helps.

Thanks for looking into this for us!
 
Plenty listed on other stores too. Infact as long as you checked once or twice a day from a week or so after release they were pretty easy to get...Just have to catch them before they sold out rather than expecting pre orders to be filled.
