    You can probably pick up a 7950 for that price.

    now we just need a few makers to put a good waterblock on a card as part of the sale ... might be cheaper than all those fans

    7950 can be had for around £170 now - had a few emails this weekend offering them at that price.

    Its awsome for what it is, overclocks prety good. Take an Nvidia Card and overclock it and see how well that goes. Long term, long life AMD/ATI wins.

    My 670 was that much, and after overclocking (at stock voltages) it gets 6300 3DMarks with an FX6300 instead of 6k with an i7 like this card. It will get higher OCs, but I don't see any reason to run at the higher voltage as I don't have games that need it.
