5830s are out at the major retailers, I think the next to go soon is the 6950s followed by the 6970s.  6990s will be coming back in stock in a few weeks, but they will probably be swooped up very quickly.  If you're out of plugs in your house, maybe you can go into the video card hoarding/resell business after all the good cards dry up?

5830s are not out of stock. I just posted in another thread a stash of 449 5830s. They're a little more expensive but still a better MHash/$ buy than a 6950.

0 have been bought since I posted.

Come on bitcoin, show me your buying powahs.

How is newegg any more major a retailer than nextdaypc? They're basically warehouses of computer parts with website fronts. THe link I posted has 449 5830s, they're not some mom and pop store.

 Go, buy!

I am not sure that stock number is accurate, especially since you said the number hasn't gone down since you told everyone about it.
Maybe someone can order a bunch and report back.


Here's a review recently from resellerratings about the accuracy of stock numbers:

"posted May-31-2011

Absolute WORST Company. Parts were not on stock even though the website said 30 available, and continue to say 30 available. Customer service reps were rude..."

ATI 5770 - can get about 233 MH/s - you can find them for $100.00 or under - they use 100 watts at full

Quote
Radeon 5770 offers the best low cost investment option for bitcoin mining. It comes cheap, delivers a punch and isn’t really power hungry – at a little over 100 watts at full load, PSU upgrade is not needed even if you are using cheaper power supply unit

source - http://www.smpake.com/?p=59

Oh, and i just bought one, for $94.49 - that is with shipping Cheesy


Some stats: if you buy 4 at $100 = $400 .. your 800 MH/s can bring in ฿43.11    ($1,273.17) per month
with NEXT WEEK increased difficulty .. that is still - ฿33.95 ($1,002.49) per month ....

wish i had some money for some more Sad donations please .. of course i will give you kickbacks later Cheesy

So they really didn't have any stock to begin with, or they sold 449 cards in less than 24 hours

It's obvious the inventory was wrong.
