+1 Jummy.

Edit: Although it would not hurt to ask for a 6970 as erocker said, it did...

I actually think it would be quite unfair for them to send him a 6970. The 6870 or 6950 is more accurate based on the overall performance and value of the 5870. Some people may disagree but I think...

He's right. They should have sent you a 6970. I would push back, even if the 6870 has already shipped.

You could pair with a 6850 afaik but it is ideal to go the same (definitely same vram amount)...

3850 512mb or 9600gt are good.

3850 is better at 1080p hd, and 9600gt is better at gaming. ;)
