I'll take 2 of the blackies. Too bad they're still in sticker shock. I'm kinda tired of buying junk when it first comes out just to have the price fall like hell right after...so I can wait for however long it takes for then to fall down to earth.


Dude, how true, I like that analogy "sticker shock"... Paying that much for a video card is retarded... although I have done it before...

It is a shame really, to get Quad fire going you have to use a AMD board and the top of the line AMD Cpu doesnt even have enough Overclocking headroom to run 2x 4870s in crossfire efficiantly, let alone 4 of them.
