You bought these:
http://www.msi.com/product/vga/R5870-MD1GD5.html

Still a good deal at $150!

Geez, brand new 5870s for $150 is a STEAL.  That's a better bang for the buck than a 5830 for $110.

The MSI site says it has 1600 stream processors. That's all you really need to know, it's a full 5870 core.

It also has 2 low-noise fans as opposed to one noisy blower. There is nothing wrong with your card.

My local frys has something like this. Over by the mobos and cpus, they had OEM 5x serries on RED TAG! No one was looking. Bought a few Diamond 5770 for under $60

usagi, is "mom and pop" a computer store?

US-Americans use that term to describe a locally owned store. So a stored which does not belong to a major chain.

Here you go, the definition by the people of the Internet: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_business
