HD 3870's are 170$ for the cheap-o sapphire cooler and 180$ for nice coolers.

HD 3850's are 130$ for 256mb and 150-160$ for 512mb versions.

Kinda makes me cry that I payed 220$ for my HD 3850 512mb :(

I feel sad... my 3850 was one of the cheapest, and I paid I think it was 114 for it, now that 3870 is around for 10 quid cheaper... :(
