TigerDirect has the 5870 for a nice price. This or the 6950 @ Newegg for $230?

CFX 5870

sorry, long day at work...

Hmm... would my 620HX be able to handle a pair of these for CFX? Its short by two PCIE connectors. I know its nothing but it kind of bugs me that my launch 5870 has a different cooler than this one if I were to get it. Hmm... sell my reference model and get two of these? Or get something else... argh decisions!

lol.

Looks like a good deal! Too bad I'm not in the market for anymore parts(for now!!!!)

Not trying to troll but unless something changed that I am not aware of, 5870 xfire scaling still sucks.

its not the best but has markedly improved. I would not buy two right now to do so myself, but as I have one getting a second one is not a bad deal. if your looking to buy a pair you would do better to go with a pair 6800 or 6900 certainly. but if your simply looking to add to an existing card I could see it
