Thread: ATI 5870 Pre-orders

Started 1 month, 3 weeks ago by professor78
Hi there, This is my first post on hexus/scan so hope its in the right place. I have placed a pre-order for a 5870, and was just wondering how quickly the pre-orders are being forfilled, or how soon stock is expected? I went for the sapphire one as it comes with 2 game vouchers. But would maybe change if there would be long delays. Thanks Dave

At the moment there is not a set time period as these have been slowly filtering through in very small numbers (less than 10) from our suppliers once they have finally arrived through their doors. As such we cannot really guess at a timescale as some have been out of stock since launch, and some have slowly come into stock, allocated to pre-orders etc and then dispatched accordingly. ...

I too have one of these cards on back order. If we have received a Delayed Order Notification email with a date listed against the card would these normally be fairly accurate? cheers Jon

LaughingJon replied 1 month, 2 weeks ago
anyone from scan able to give any kind of hint as to the chances of getting one of these before the 7/8th Nov? the stock email i had said they were due in today but they haven't come in? many thanks Jon

Lee @ SCAN replied 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Due in today means that they could land at any time up until 6pm at night. I've seen stock come in for items after I've gone home before now. Please can you provide me with the LN code of the one you are looking at so I can check on the systems here to see if there has been any updates. Best Regards,

LaughingJon replied 1 month, 2 weeks ago
heya Lee.. the LN number is LN28922. Originally i had selected the XFX version but was advised to switch to the Sapphire version when i originally made my complete order as you were apparently expecting a batch sooner but looks like that may not have been the case? Cheers Jon

We now have a large PO in place for the HD-587A-ZNF9 - 1GB XFX HD 5870 due 6th November. Due to the previous stock constraints, I wouldn't like to guarantee this date, however the PO has been placed and this is the date we have been given from the manufacturer.

Just some information for people that are enquiring about these graphics cards. http://www.digitimes.com/news/a20091030PD209.html TMSC are having issues with the 40nm wafer production. As such this is hampering the supply of the HD5800 series of graphics cards from ATI at the present time. Best Regards,

Thanks for keeping us updated Lee.

Any dates on Sapphire 5870 Lee? EVERYONE seems to be out of stock...

rzk replied 1 month, 1 week ago
I'd like too know too since I have a PC awaiting build with it and getting hold of people at scan atm is impossible because they are swamped with queries just like ours

What the hell are ATI/Amd doing!!! 7 Weeks now since my order was placed grrrr, the rest of my PC is going to be outdated by the time the card comes Have seen a couple for sale on other retailers over the last week, but they are around the £400+ mark. There seems to be a few Powercolor LCS kicking around but @ £460!!!! So what do we thinkthe chances are for before xmas?

Sorry we've not been as active here as we'd like to have been recently - the run up to Christmas keeps us all ridiculously busy. Yes the cards are expensive - but the top end card always is, even moreso when there's no competition from the green team...

To re-iterate, our web site is updated throughout the day, customer who have pre-ordered will receive e-mail updates when we have a confirmed ETA and when stock lands. Our web site is also updated continuously so the ETA can also be checked through the information link of the product. We are sorry for the delays and we are working hard to source stock. Best Regards
