any recommendations on replacing it with something else?
trying to stick with the 600.00 price line.

oh and yes i have found the msi card on amazon but im not paying 700.00 for it when i
could have gotten it for 599.00 @ newegg.

Why the affinity for MSI's card? The Sapphire version is in stock now and rarely goes out of stock - why not just pick that up?

If you want MSI you really should be waiting for their Twin Frozr card anyways :)

If you're dead-set on the MSI 7970 I'd just wait for the TFIII version.

TFIII is godly.

Sadly no, I haven't even seen a "MSI Twin Frozr 7970 announced" article anywhere, so I'm guessing it might be a while. Seems like companies are releasing custom 7950s before 7970s.
