LOL.

I will probably make the jump to budget 5 series after tax season is done with. Can't wait to see your results with the 5850 :)

Nice these cards should perform very well for their price segment. Keep us posted! :)

I've definitely enjoyed running this card on air, it's got some balls to it. :)

Ewiz screwed me, got an email they were out of stock, and not expecting any till next month.

Though I do think I got a free Gig X58-UD3R from them :thumbsup:

Ugh. WEll next month is good. Mav2000 at techreaction (http://www.techreaction.net/forums/showthread.php?p=11250#post11250) was complaining about poor performance with the 5850, but it appears the 9.11 betas fixed him up. No updates yet, just the mention. Thought it was worth repeating :)

I will have one once I get the new set up done ......
Not much of a review type person though... but will post up some bench screens here.


If all goes well may have a 70 as well

ooo 70 looks like it does well despite the driver.. wonder if it does better on the .11s too. That would be AWESOME.

Love to see ATi grabbing boints :) (OCA boints of course ;))

Will have to live vicariously until they drop to real prices of course
