Default HD5970 specs and size finalized
At one time the 5970 was shown at 13.5 inches..It seems it has been cut down a bit to 12.0 inches which will help with most Full Tower cases...
I myself just followed Kal's lead and scored 3 Asus 5870's which will probably do better with the upcoming ruling from Bots on dual cards...I have no problem with there ruling but it should have been implimented before many people choked out coin for the X2 and 295...Just IMO...Everybody has one like certain body parts..

Here is the HIS review...

At $600 I would have to sell the computer it would go in to buy it

We'll see though. Never rule anything out
