How many of these (http://canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=43_557_558&item_id=039137) did you get when they were $99.99?

Not bad at all. I assume its the 6870 at that price right? The window title and model say 6970 but the box and short descript say 6870.

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 :)

If only :)
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.
