His x850xt

[Xed]

Nearly clocked to plat edition speeds and wouldn't require a new cooler. Looks like a winner if it ever drops to near msrp. =)

Indeed it is a very nice card, I remember the HIS 9800 Pros.

that card has good stock cooling.

Geeze, I wonder how feasible it would be to buy several of the Gigabyte X850 XTs (for the dual DVI), slap on a larger cooling unit like the HIS, then EBay it for $200 more (as the the Gigabytes are $599)...if people actually buy these things, damn...

That card made my jeans tight, the price tag restored them to their normal state.

They just popped up on newegg in the last few hours, so its price gouging gallore. I am hoping it'll drop to something reasonable in a few weeks. I would like one when the new a64 revisions come out and I build a new rig, since it's already oc'd and I wouldn't need to void my warranty by slapping a silencer on it. =)

If someone actually pays $800 for this I would personally slapp them.

Too bad it costs about as much as my whole computer

 

[suse920]

wow that would be a monster.

well, price has dropped $140 to 659 now (679 for dual dvi) (pe with silencer 709)

about halfway to what I'd pay for it
