Re: When when when?

Early availability is said to be quite low, in case you're waiting to buy one you'll have to keep refreshing and be quick. Also the 5850 model may appear a little later than the 5870's. I'm interested to see if the low load power consumption figures are correct, but will probably wait for a future less expensive 5xxx model anyway.

I won't be able to get them anyway. I'm sure they'll take their time to trickle to Israel. I just want the reviews for now. I want to know all the sordid details!

I guess I was a day early. Products now already showing online (HIS H585F1GDG Radeon HD 5850 5800 Series 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express x16 (2.0v) Video Card Retail at ZipZoomfly), but no reviews yet. I'm starved for reviews!

Re: When when when?

The HD5870s have been out since Monday, but the only cards I've seen personally are from Powercolor, Asus, and XFX, all around $465. The HD5850s, however, from what my supplier tells me we'll have to wait a little longer to get those.

Newegg.ca is showing a Sapphire 5870 for $405.99, but not available until around 9/28/09
Newegg.ca - SAPPHIRE 100281SR Radeon HD 5870 (Cypress XT) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Video Card w/ATI Eyefinity - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards

Newegg in the states is showing 5 different mfgs: Sapphire, XFX, Asus, HIS, and Powercolor. All listed at $379.99. However, none of them appear to be available, since they only have the "Auto-Notify" and "Add to Wish List" tabs.
