So I know the 5870 is out of stock everywhere....but, whos gonna get it in first?
- Thread starter Elipsn
- Start date
I know some website that will have XFX 5870 in stock on thursday and monday..
but dont know if they are legit though... the website looks very crappy for me at least...
everywhere else mostly seems to be around 20th-30th..

Spooky, lol
If they don't have a Contact Us page with a phone number and address, don't buy from them. The sites that want you to send email are obviously questionable.
The GoDaddy Sercurity logo at the bottom adds more spookiness to the site! lol
Only cheap self-made websites have that at the bottom.
Don't Buy From Them!

Not really a bad price with the water block. Usually a fullsize waterblock like that is over $100 alone.

True, but it wouldn't be in stock if it was XFX.

Lili sounds pretty cool on the phone, but anyways that's what you get back if you backorder a card. It's a race between them and Amazon for the backorder.

last time I check with them they said they will be in stock on 14th.... dont know if that is true..
yes, but shows an ETA of the 14th, thats 4 days.
if its true, I'll place a backorder.
I just called Lili Greene at antaresdigital - she said basically, the ETA is what their vendor tells them (in this case, xfx) but they keep pushing it back.
She said last month, for example, 5850's and 5870's were supposed to show up at the end of the month, and the 5850's did. But the 5870's didn't. XFX just keeps pushing back delivery to online retailers for 5870's.

.is it still there? if it is I am gonna go down there and grab one right now. no kidding...
I don't know if they are still there. I was there at around 11:30am and they were sitting on the shelves. I would call them first and have someone do a stock check for you.
I have a friend who works there and he told me the 5850's had been there for a couple of days. He said the 5870's are selling really quick though.
could you do me a favor and tell him to hold XFX 5870 for me ? XD
I couldn't get there until 6:30PM today..

damn at this rate, they wont get as large a jump on nvidia as they'd probably like to
hope that either demand drops a little or they're able to start pumping out more GPU's than they are currently

damn, that was quick... out of stock again already
He isn't working right now. I asked him for you and he told me that the 5870 is gone and so is one of the 5850's.
As of 2:30pm (time he got off work) there is one XFX 5850 with a price tag of $319.99.
huh.. around Concord? CA area?
So I recieved my ASUS from antares digital today. Everything look great, however the ASUS box was not sealed, nor was the static packaging for the card. I am installing win7 right now, so hopefully this card wasn't an RMA they are just trying to resell.
My Power Color from Newegg was not sealed. I could see where the clear circular pieces of tape were removed. Also the anti-static bag had two pieces of tape. One looked old and removed once. Everything was great with the card though.

i would give them all your money. i would not give them mine. for those of you getting opened cards...yikes man. i'd be on the fence about sending it back with a complaint...but i probably wouldn't because I'm not that patient, most days. my xfx from ncixus was properly sealed and unopened.
My guess this was a case of someone who ordered from like 5 sites hoping to get one and returned this after getting an XFX. Since I never sell my cards I do really care about 2 warranties, and I won't use my card longer then 2 years, so if it works (find out after I install a heatsink) I do not care.
SCORE!!!!
