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.
If you look at the history of it probaly not immediately. When the 6970/6950 the 5970 was still the flagship and stayed the same price and ended up going up for a little bit. I think that AMD has found their perfect segments with the 6950/6970/6990. Doesn't stop the 6990 from being expensive...

I went out and bought a GTX580 and Nvidia 3D glasses just to see what all the hubbub was all about and I was left unimpressed and with a headache. The glasses kill the immersion for me, but I can sort of understand why people go crazy for it because Metro 2033 was pretty freaky. I specifically...
I don't disagree with you at all man. I actually agree with you but do you really think that we will see a 7950 by June? Why? 6950 selling well, 6970 selling good, 590 bumping A/C sales. I just get frusturated with the "soon comment", maybe giving the OP the idea it will come out next month.
I'm not going to get into a pissing match about release dates but when someone says soon I think soon refers to a month maybe 3. So telling someone to skip on a 6950 because it's coming out "soon" is silly.
As for the thread, that I read, that's like saying iPhone came out a few months ago I...
I think you nailed it correctly by testing it on a different computer to rule out your motherboard and PSU. I had a similar problems back in the day with my old Nvidia card and it ended up being the motherboard the whole time.
Knowing the performance and price difference I don't understand how anyone could buy a Nvidia card. Unless you're running 3D vision why would you buy a Nvidia card?
I recently went through the same debate recently and I ended up deciding on the MSI for two reasons.
1. I noticed that if someone posted a doa card, which happens, MSI responded on newegg and that impressed me. (I know seems stupid but they cared enough to respond)
2. MSI seems to have...
May be a dumb question but you're running the newest CFX profiles right? With my 5970 I was getting 70 fps in bad company 2 and I updated the catalyst CFX profiles, hadn't ever dl them, and they jumped to 140fps on a single monitor.
