You will get my results when the egg figures out if they can ship out another 5970 or be forced to refund the amount. dual 5970's looked strong for the brief time it ran.

More interesting is when I get the 4-way 5870's steaming.

Yep, thats it for now.

In soups case and mine I don't think the Holiday season is the problem...I think the problem is they just can't get them...

I hope I get that option..I didn't pay for the shipping back....If you email the egg before you do the RMA ..Tell them the product is defective and can they send you a return postage ship label. They will do it..They just don't put that in the fine print.... Let them create the RMA...

same thing for a refund..If you email, they will send you the label and no restocking fee if defective....
