I wonder if they'll come back in stock, another one of my friends wants one.

Managed to snag 2. Figured i can keep one as a backup and give the other away or ebay it and get my money back.

There's a refurb 1000w OCZ psu at SVC.com for $60. That should be able to handle them

Damn it.... I should have ordered...... rent vs video card though LOL

I already cringed at the money I lost on THAT one... but now to think I may actually get a 3870 X2... for more than $100 less!! ugghhh.

Try to return it :P

I am cannot believe how stupidly cheap these cards are o.O

Always a tough choice haha

well if anyone ordered more then one and wants to offload it shoot me a pm please. What with trips to the hospital (for the wife) and all that hard to catch deals.

I got in on one. Hope it fits my Lanbox.

Good for additional tech specs ;-)

That is the Superoverclocked edition on Newegg, this one on Amazon is just the plain reference design.

EDIT: The picture is for the regular edition, but the description says super overclocked edition... hmmmm

Got one a while ago while they were in stock. One of my friends needs a new video card, and this should do the trick. If he decides against it, I'll just replace the 4670 in my htpc.

Thanks OP.

Here it is over at Buy.com's site for $381.70

Why does this have 4 DVI outputs? can you disable the Onboard XFire and run it like 2 seperate cards?

I just went by actual Model #.

Amazon page says: Item Model Number: 900228

NewEgg page says: Model 900228

I don't see anywhere on the NewEgg page that states "overclocked edition"... ???

Hey, wait... this from Amazon page:

Product Description
The VisionTek ATI Radeon HD 3870 X2 Overclocked Edition graphics card enables you to experience the power of HD with 3D processing designed for ultimate gaming.

COOL!

i ordered on earlier too and hoping it goes through.. im gonna check my cc account online to be sure i get charged 27.99 not the 374 or whatever buy.com is selling it for. I remember amazon.com had a motherboard for cheap and everyone got billed for the msrp. a lot of upset people and a lot of returns on that one.

Yep, and the NewEgg pictures show the super overclocked edition. Reading through some of the customer comments I saw some about 4 DVI connectors. Here's hoping its the OC edition.

I currently have a pending charge on my credit card for $27.99 from Amazon Payments. Usually when my card is validated it goes on there for either the exact amount of purchase or $1.00. So I'm guessing there won't be a higher price charged if these do ship. They still could cancel the orders and say it was a price mistake, but that doesn't involve me doing anything on my end to get made whole again so I don't have a problem with it.

Same, the ~$60 has been pulled from my paypal. Used a VCC

I bought one. If this goes through, suddenly my spare pc becomes a pretty decent gaming system. High 5!
