Just ordered my 5850

[Kumo]

XFX. $300 on Newegg. Unfortunately, my store only had 5870s, which are out of my price range.

The 5850 is an amazing card with a great price/performance ratio considering it's high-end. Enjoy it .

i cant wait for my new rig to come and my xfx 5850 to come it seems like the perfect card for 1920x1080 for my 24" asus i cant wait for it

i second it being an amazing card / im gaming at 3600x1600 with a fair bit of eye candy on and it's handling todays games with aplomb

that being said... why are they still $50 over msrp? i thought once they became available they'd go back to $250ish?

hmmm, but you did say xfx... peace of mind is well worth it...

make sure you post eyefinity pictures... you cant buy a 5xxx and not setup eyefinity!

Hard enough to get the wife to approve $1000 for this rig. And that's with some substantial discounts! Might be a little while until I'm dual- or triple-monitor.
