Looking for an XFX Radeon HD 5850? We Got'em!

Dang, I jumped, and I jumped High!


/refresh refresh refresh /wants a PM.

Hot damn I just got the call!

It's on ze way!

Oh, 20 minute turn around time FTW!

got a pm back, unfortunately, paypal isn't accepted so I'll have to wait a little longer. Still props to XFX for their support! Can't wait to add to my XFX collection

Ouch, the only day I forget my CC at home! Oh well, I already have 1. Thanks [H] and XFX. glad I bought my first 5850 from XFX too, good company.

good job xfx..

BUT

call me when you do this for the 5870s

awesome work XFX.. this is why you will stay one of the greatest companies and best additions to the ATI graphics card providers in its history..

Thank you [H] for setting something up like this..

Are these better than the 4870x2?

Not much faster, and keeping in the same area. of performance.

It will have far lower power consumption, along with lower heat output...

not to mention DX11 (hides).

HardOCP has a great review:

It's not right in there, but replace "GTX295" with 4870x2... just for kicks. (iirc, the gtx295 is faster then the hd4870x2 - please feel free to correct this).

I just got a phone call ( 15 minutes after i sent them a pm, wow fast :O ) from XFX and ordered a 5850, this just shows how XFX loves their customers. I know what brand of video cards I'll buy in the future. Thanks XFX.

not hot at all. i don't mind waiting. i have this long

i'll probably still get xfx though for the good warranty

Crap my 5850 money is in PayPal and Payday is tomorrow...


Owe Yeah... It will be on it's way.

XFX and [H] rule...

Not in the market and not in the country. Still impressed by the move and will consider XFX for my next refresh.

Cool stuff

I am a little sad that I dropped $$$ on my 4890 but it does what I need and was a teeny bit cheaper :P hehe

Very nice deal, I watched newegg like a hawk a few weeks ago. Claimed it was a discontinued card or something but it came in stock for 5 minutes and I got my 5850

Props to XFX and [H] for doing this!

Nice! I love this!! Already got one just like it, they look great in person. If I had the money I would jump on this to crossfire. No point really with my Dell 2209WA, as there is little need at this resolution. However XFX is ten notches kewler for doing this =)

yeah XFX gets big rep for this. very kewl indeed

The minimums are much better though and there's far fewer stutters/dips, with the 5850 .

MAJOREDIT: Don't want the little kiddies getting any bad ideas about Uncle Jeremy.

Hey Kyle,

Tell XFX to keep doing this. They will have my money for a 5870 or 5970 by the end of the month if they partner up for these cards.

Way to go XFX. I think its a really awesome thing that your doing this. P.S. Canadians love XFX too

I lov my XFX 5850. I'm sure some combination of cards can beat a single 5850 now with the right game, but will they have the features/low noise/cooling/heat/low power combination of the new 5850/5870? Then you can go to 5850 crossfire and

Trying not to think how cool two of these XFXs would look on my Asus Rampage II Gene... "one is enough... one is enough... one is enough"
