XFX 5850 + 4GB DDR3 ram for $211AR

beware $40 in rebates, 2 different rebates to send in. otherwise, really great deal.
 
Wow if I hadn't just grabbed 2 * 4GB 2 months ago & a 6850 last week I would have been ALL over this.
 
I'm guessing the 69xx parts are going to be > $180 that the 6850 goes for. Way too pricey for a video card.
 
also - if you have a 5850 already - would waiting on the 6850 be a good crossfire choice? would the tessellation features on the 6xxx work with the 5xxx in crossfire? If not these dropping prices on the 5 series are a far better deal for many of us.

you can only xfire a 5XXX with a 5XXX or a 6XXX with a 6XXX, no mixing!
