Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
I know XFX has a double lifetime warranty. Where Sapphire is only 2 years - - plus you have to pay for shipping / administrative fee.
Warranty isn't everything.
Which company is better ? Which company has better driver support ?

I think XFX is being sneaky!
A "Just Launched " seller on Amazon is selling 5850s for 300.00 + $6.49shipping.
The name of the seller is "XFX"
It looks like XFX is selling 5850s through Amazon, but not shipping them to fill the Amazon pre-orders.

Pre-Ordered XFX 5850 from Amazon on Nov 16th.
I just "approved" the delay.
Shipping estimate: January 11, 2010 - January 25, 2010
I am sad that AMD can't keep up with demand.
