Wow the XFX one is already out of stock. Can't believe the price from 549.99 to 599.99 I wish I could afford them. Hey thanks for the Info.

 

[blakecarter]

oh no problem man. just trying to get the info out there. yea i was just as surprised to see it sold out. im sure many more will sell out. im hoping when the rest come out the higher end 6000 series will drop so i can get one of those

 

[bawchicawawa]

when are the other 7xxx series coming out?

 

[azeem40]

Do you mean 7000? The 7970 isnt the most powerful of the series?

 

[bestlink101]

when are the other 7xxx series coming out?

Soon

Time to wait until 6xxx and 5xx series drop down in price when kepler is released.

Ya me to but I will be waiting for the Kepler then the 5xx series will come down.

 

[blakecarter]

yall think it will be march until 6xxx and 5xxx drop in price? id think since a newer series came out the price would drop. but i guess they would wait until the competion to come out with something before losing money....

I would think right now that to lower there prices now would cause them more money. Reason I think this is because. Only a few were made and they will sell very quickly. They have to keep up the price so when the second wave of 7xxx series comes. They want you to buy them and If you aready have the older card then you won't buy.

But if they keep up the prices then you will hold off to get the newer ones. I am thinking that even when the Kepler come's out it might follow AMD. They want you to buy their new product. That way they make more money. I would guess it will be about a year before we can see any price decrease in the 6xxx and 5xx series.

This is just my opinion and I would love to be wrong. Because I want two of the GTX 560 ti's with the 448 cores. That would be perfect for my rig and the type of gaming I love to do.

at this time of checking, his, sapphire, powercolor are in stock, all @ $550 [strike]and xfx fx @ $560[/strike]. asus, gigabyte, and xfx black edition - 'out of stock'.

 

[farrengottu]

the xfx is out of stock it just doesnt show so untill you try to buy it. i got the sapphire one but would have perferred the xfx for the lifetime warranty.

 

[tutstuts]

got mine!

 

[farrengottu]

they are now sold out on newegg
were never available on tigerdirect or amazon

 

[blakecarter]

ill prolly go ahead and get a 6950 so i can start ordering a couple monitors

 

[jjb8675309]

^oh yeah that makes a lot of sense seeing that a single 6950 would struggle bad at 5760X1080

 

[blakecarter]

oh wasn't aware of that^ anyways ordered my 6950 and 3 21 inch monitors this morning.

 

[DelroyMonjo]

I can't wait for the Forums, "7970 stalls in BF3"; "7970 won't run Skyrim without freezing".

HaHaHaHaHa!
Don't worry, AMD will have patches and driver updates on the way shortly...

 

[blakecarter]

for sure^

 

[jjb8675309]

^well shoot if thats the case then id go ahead and order another 6950 for crossfire if you have a capable rig

^btw what are your full system specs blake?

yeah Ive had worlds of problems with midrange crossfire but very minimal problems (usually) with AMD single cards just not a fan of mid CFX... mind you I own a gtx 560ti and love it!

 

[DM186]

Man are you guys seeing this how fast these cards are going. All of them on newegg are all gone. Like DelroyMonjo said before can't wait to see the forums. I can't wait to see the benchmarks to see how they are preforming.

 

[jjb8675309]

are they available anywhere on the internet?

 

[azeem40]

When will they be available again? I really don't want to get another Video Card other than the 7970...
