Look like a good deal though not for me, has this been posted already?

only three times.

and they must got a ton of inventory or something, the code was supposed to expire on the 20th, then extended to 29th, now 4th. lol

Seems like a lot of money for a previous generation card. How does it stack up against a GTX 580?

It's also dual GPU. That is why it is $500 before the code.

very capable card still kicks ass and is a steal for 399!

Once again it needs to be pointed out that this card only has a 30 day warranty.

should be fine 5970's were cherry picked chips, NEVER had any issues with mine.

Delicious. I would love to trade in my 2 6950's for 1 of these. D'oh.

Manufacturer Limited Warranty period (parts): 30 days

^^ That's provided by Newegg.

And AMD doesn't warranty any of their OEM (non-boxed) devices. So once the 30 day is up, you're SOL if it dies on you.

Seriously? I wouldn't. 2x 6950's scale much better at eyefinity resolutions and have double the vram for higher AA at that resolution.

the 5970 does bitcoin better but i'd rather have two 6950s or 70s or better yet a single 6990.
