Only 1 :( That was the 5830 from the subject line ;) Title: Re: Couldn't get another 5830 so...

I assume its the 6870 at that price right? The window title and model say 6970 but the box and short descript say 6870. Title: Re: Couldn't get another 5830 so... Post by: Coineer on July 05, 2011, 08:25:59 PM Yes it's the 6870. It looks like 6970 is the Diamond Multimedia model# for the card, but the chipset is the 6870 (and I knew that going in).
That was the clearance price, only visible online, in the store the sticker was $209, but it rang through at the clearance price :) Title: Re: Couldn't get another 5830 so...

I definitely did the double-check on the 6790 but even as a 6870, the deal was still great :D Now I just need to get power to it, lol. Lots of wattage but no so much for connectors.

Talk about a fucking deal. Title: Re: Couldn't get another 5830 so... Post by: Coineer on July 26, 2011, 05:46:51 PM Got that 6870 running now at a nice 304 Mh/s, not too bad at all :)
