Palit 4870 Sonic 1GB

Those have been out for a few weeks... You just have to be on newegg.com when they have them in.
 
Yeah the Palit's are so cheap they go fast. Not everyone is a fan of their corner cutting for price reduction though

Having an aftermarket cooler is corner cutting? All of the ATI brands have crap warranties, and most have crap customer service. How does Palit cut corners in any way that the other ATI sellers don't?
 
Well I took the plunge. I decided that since I had no real idea when the 1GB Sonic would be hitting stores near me that I will settle for the 512MB version. I am happy so far. I am maxing out Far Cry 2 and in Call of Duty 4 where I could not put on AA I have it at 4X so far and with great FPS.
 
You made this thread yesterday, how do you have it already?

Unless you bought it locally :)

Palit has awesome coolers and local customer service. Just like was asked by someone else, what corners are cut?

I settled for the 512MB version which is available locally to me. I wanted to hold out for my local stores to get the 1GB version in but I had no idea how long that would be so I pulled the trigger.
 
Don't know if anyone is still monitoring this page but Palit said the 1gb version would be out around thanksgiving.
