    Throw the switch Igor.......It Liiiiiiiiivvves!

    Mind you at EUR1.09 to GBP1.00 that's GBP 522.00 + VAT @15% = a nice round GBP 600.
    I think I'll be leaving that, then.
    Society's to blame,
    Or possibly Atari.

    Re: HD5870X2 first pictures!

    Most places seem to be selling them for around £300 give or take, they'll drop in price thought when nvidia brings their new card out I expect. I could be wrong though.

    Just take comfort in the fact that all the ATI 4000 series cards have now dropped in price, thats where the smart money goes. Makes me wish I'd waited a little bit longer in getting my 4850 and gone for a 4870, but not to worry, to be honest at 1680 x 1050 the 4850 in most cases is fine

    After looking on another review site, they seemed to think it looked more like the Batmobile and the A-Team van !!

    Even in the GPU world, size matters and all the better if you have 2 of them!
