Mine just changed to shipped too.
Good news, they should be here tommorow.
Bad news... I freaking ordered from Newegg too because I had planned to cancel my order with them... Now I have 3 of them... anyone want to buy one? Lol.
My XFX edition is on the truck right now. I didn't even order it from NCIX (Canada) until 6AM Wednesday morning, so I'm pretty stoked about it. Can't wait to try the Eyefinity with my favorite games tonight!
EDIT: It arrived while I was out for lunch. EyeFINITY PR0N FTW

I wasn't expecting mine until Monday but UPS actually delivered something a day ahead of schedule!
Looks like a project for this weekend is in order after all. Too bad I'll be 'bottlenecking' it dropping it into a C2Q machine @ ~3.5 GHz.
I know it shouldn't really be bottlenecked; I was making fun of the Neweggie's that think they know what they're talking about.NICE! Post up some benchies ASAP if you could, heh. I seriously doubt you'll be bottlenecked unless you're going to be running games at <= 1280x1024. Even if you are, your FPS is going to be stupid-high anyways so you definitely won't notice. Also, this is when you turn the IQ even higher to make good use of the card. I hate how people think you need a i7 @ 4 GHz to do these cards justice, because you don't, esp. at 1920x1200 or higher. Anything past 60 FPS is unnoticeable and irrelevant to me (other than knowing its true performance)
Anyways, congrats! Post benches/temps!

...and...
The sticker claims that the card is "faster, cooler, and quieter" but it appears to use a reference cooler. Can you comment on the noise levels of this card? What is the noise and temps @ load?
It will easily if you remove the 3 1/2" drive cage that's lined up with where your card most likely will be. Assuming the fit is like mine though, it's just barely too tight to keep that drive cage in-place for the 5870. Not a huge deal to me since my sole purpose for that drive cage was as a sort-of shroud to help direct airflow across the memory, VRM's, etc., on my old WC'd 9800 GTX, but if you're actually using it for HD's, you may be out of luck... :/Looking foreward to a getting mine on monday. I got the XFX version. I just hope the 5870 will fit in my antec p180B case...
Okay, just so some of you that orderd from ZZF know, a crap load of 5870's are backordered, thats why your status still says "Packed" I belive.
I called earlier to see if it's even shipped yet because I was getting nervous, the rep said she will find out and if she could call me back. She actually did later that day and she told me my order was backordered and that they will have them on the 29th. She also asked if I wanted a to cancel my order, so you guys can still cancel if you want.
I kept it because I didn't want to wait for the whole returning and waiting for a week for the money to show back up in my back account when the card SHOULD ship the 29th.
I hope to god their 29th shipments are enough because I'm going to raise hell.
Never buying from ZZF again, first time buying from them was a bad experience.
