"It would be an understatement to say we are excited to bring the next generation of ATI technology to consumers. The PowerColor HD5000 series has the most advanced graphics processors yet," says Ted Chen, CEO of TUL Corporation. "We are also looking to provide more value to the consumer which is why we are bundling this next generation series of cards with one of the most popular games in the market today along with KONNET HDMI cables."

I agree with if you, What I meant to say was that hd5850 at $259.00 is way way way ahead on performance/price ratio from Nvidia's cards.... That just is it....
I really don't think nvidia can drop that must their cards prices....
I like AMD, it's true, but I use Intel, and owned nvidia cards all my life, since Gforce2 GTS up to now that I'm with a hd3870...... I really hope the green team does well too, it's better for everybody.

I got you inferKNOX. I like these different bundles, but it would be sweet to offer the Dirt 2 Game as a freebie with the cable. 63lbs for a cable is ridiculous. Why does it weigh so much?
