They seem to come back every 15 min or so....I never buy retail but wanted to try the sapphire vapor x....I got it after clicking on it when it said auto notify....

Yeah I saw the Sapphire. As soon as you click it it was out of stock but looking at the whole 5870 line up it showed to be in stock.

Good thing about this card is you can play with it for a week or 2 and get what you paid if it's not for you....

Just wondering..I know i can run 2 different cards together...I jumped on one of the 5870 vapor X cards..Can I use the MSI afterburner program since the Vapor X has a taller memory and core clock than my Asus????

Kal-EL

12-02-2009, 11:46 AM

Ah shit, I missed it again. Tryin to pick up two of the 5970's! :Dizzy:
Preferably the Asus but whatever I can get I guess.

You just missed 10 min. of the msi R5970..They have had both cards on and off all day or since 12 noon..Keep watching..Every 20 min. or so...

I wonder if it just keeps getting placed in someone's cart and auto removed after session expires. That would mean there is possibly only one card left.

DrNip

12-02-2009, 11:54 AM

Sorry bro. I only had money for one. It was the newest MSI they had listed.

bump..anyone know the answer?????

I would assume they would by synced :thumbsup:

Kal-EL

12-02-2009, 12:17 PM

I'd assume the same, that they'd sync to the lower clocked card and then clock upwards together thru afterburner.

lakeside2189

12-02-2009, 12:42 PM

do you think it matters which one goes up top??? It looks like with the big center fan on the vapor X that it would be better on bottom????

DrNip

12-02-2009, 12:44 PM

I would say witch ever one can clock higher.

This 5970 is the Black addition......I notice there are no Asus in this rampage by Newegg today.....

I have read good things about XFX black.....

709.00 is out of my league but i believe this will be close to the full 2 x 5870....

DrNip

12-02-2009, 03:29 PM

I was pretty sure you would pass on the $709.99 so I didn't even bother. A good $110 over msr. That price reminds me of the 8800 gtx-ultra prices. Plum bleeping ridiculous.

2-4 weeks they will be in stock everywhere and at a lower price.

Holy shit these clowns are bidding anywhere from $550-$620 on the Vapor-X 5870 at eBay. God I should have bought a couple yesterday and flipped them for a quick profit! One of them has a hook," -NEW- Overclocks better then regular 5870 & is quieter". HAHAHA.

Double lifetime refers to reselling the card.

What was even funnier, there was a listing on one last week I had to LOL at

"Double lifetime warranty! Ends December 12, 2010"

That's funny..Short double life...

What if you buy a card but never register it and sell it..Can the new owner register it then or does it depend on the manufacture???

Neuromancer

12-03-2009, 01:35 PM

The lifetime warranties are usually if you register within a few weeks of getting the card.

I see these are still there and have been for over 2 hours..I wonder if TSMC has finally caught up??? It can't just be the price because it's not that bad considering you could sell it on ebay for a 100.00 more even after ebay and paypal fee's.....

I use to be into that but just don't seem to have the time....

They have been having the XFX 5870 in stock for a couple of days and the HIS all day. XFX looks tempting but needs to come on down a bit.

12-06-2009, 05:24 AM

I feel kinda bad.I really just wanted to try the vapor-x and grabbed one during the newegg run 6 days ago..I like the Asus better so decided to put it on a short auction. I just wanted my money plus the ebay and paypal fees which never happens and would be great..
I listed it as 6 days old and tested well...It went for 580.00 plus 45.00 auto shipping to the UK....

I just wanted to break even....I still want the 5970 or if ever the 5890...

I feel like I should put a T-Bone in the box or something!!!!:blush:

At a boy. Wishing I would have done the same. Could have picked up a couple and made a couple to few hundred dollars off them. Oh well.

12-06-2009, 06:55 AM

Well I see things go for over retail all the time on eBay, think a lot of it has to do with ebay and paypal coupons TBH. Well and then things like this where it is a supply/demand issue....
