    just ordered the 6970

    yeah, i know i haven't been around much as of late, but i still do crunch for the team. (I am still active on the IRC though! ) I have just ordered the 6970 and it should be here next week some time.

    I got: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814102915

    itll be interesting to see how it stacks up to the similerly priced GeForce 570...

    Re: just ordered the 6970

    Congrats!

    I'm working on the specs for a new box since the Intel i7 950 CPU is on sale at Microcenter for $199. Yep, $279 - $80 instant savings. Unfortunately that is in store only and limit 1 per customer. I'm definitely going to grab one of those today. I was thinking of putting in dual 5850's but now that the 6970's are out and priced at about the same, I may just have to go with one of those instead. Keep us posted on how it performs.
