That XFX cooler looks really nice, but it's a no go with those "void if removed" stickers on the screws. Gotta be able to add a backplate.

Those warranty stickers only apply in some countries..... they do not apply in the USA that is straight from XFX's mouth they will not reject the cards if those are gone! Or will it disqualify you from the double lifetime warranty.

i cant wait to get my hands on one...
although the price in the uk is going to be sky high if this> http://www.overclockers.co.uk/productlist.php?groupid=701&catid=56&subid=938 is anything to go by...

I'm thinking you might be right about that. I wonder if the 6950's will still fetch a good dollar since the new cards are rolling out now

Steevo · Jan 9, 2012

I need to know if the waterblock mounting for my 4xxx and 5xxx will work, and maybe even my VRM-R4 once someone gets one.

boomstik360 · Jan 9, 2012

Damn, pulled the trigger on a sapphire. Feels good to actually buy something on release day lol. It's a first for me.

boomstik360 · Jan 9, 2012

Just wish Ivy Bridge was out now too!!! Ahhhhh

Steevo · Jan 9, 2012

I have done it a few times, the one that hurt the worst was my X1800XT. Ass raped by ATI for wanting something.

That was nothing IMO the 2900XT was worse! Same with the GTX 295 but at least the second of the two worked way better. This one seems to probably be worth it to (HD7970)

LOL Dun Dun Da Dun Dun Da Dun Dun Dun (Me too Something similar that upgrade)

Steevo · Jan 9, 2012

I skipped the 2XXX series due to my ass still hurting after paying $529 for a card that was devalued a few months later.

3870, 4850, 5870 and skipped the 6XXX series.

DOM · Jan 9, 2012

sapphire out of stock I shouldn't of waited

I wonder if the 7950 are going to be able to unlock like how they did on the 6 series... Just guessing since they delayed it

20mmrain · Jan 9, 2012

Just a heads up to anyone who wants one of these cards almost sold out.... 5 HIS cards and nothing else it appears.... Who knows how long to get more in.

boomstik360 · Jan 9, 2012

Gone!
