Thread: Just ordered an XFX 5870 :)

That extra fan will be money in that case. Plus how can you go wrong with a beast like the 5870? It's well out of my price range but I can dream. Enjoy it. It'll be a screamer. You should be able to use MSI's Afterburner application to increase the voltage if you really want to put the card through it's overclocking paces.

That's nice , man . Post pics when it arrive.

I feel a bit jealous I am curious if XFX includes any dx11 game in the package (a coupon for Dirt 2 would be awesome). I imagine your mum with a "brand new" Pentium 4 supported by an Ati 8500 vga Big cuts

Yes, the package includes a voucher for Dirt 2 for when it is released although I'm not sure if I have to download it or if I can redeem it at a store (which would be preferable to save bandwidth) And yes lol it is pretty much like that $500 computer for her, $570 card for me

well dude make sure to enjoy every last pennies worth of that card, its gonna rock your world. And with XFX it should have a Double Lifetime warranty which comes in real handy if you want to sell the card. The Dirt 2 coupon is for downloading the game on Steam once its released
