Not bad price actually! Hmmm ...I am thinking......

[LordJuanlo]

I might do as you. I need some Crossfire numbers to see how 2 cards perform. AFAIK there are no drivers yet, maybe you will have to wait to use both cards.

BTW that translates to €650, not bad price for two high end cards.

[Redeemed]

Awesome! Please, keep us updated as to how these perform in CrossFireX. If they do well enough, then I'll grab two for some Quad-CrossFire goodness in my next rig. :)

I got the Asus cards because of the hot chick on the card.

I saw Sapphire and Grandmars 3870 X2's at local shops going for around HK$3400-500. No Asus yet.

At Capital in Golden Centre.

that's cool. I didnt see them listed at any of the websites (jumbo computer, centralfield etc.). I suppose Grandmars was the cheapest :p

I heard some time within this quarter ATi would release the quad crossfire drivers, March the latest.

[Blacklash]

Pay attention to Newegg's return policy for this particular product; replacement only. So if you don't like it for whatever the reason you can't send it back. You could sell it though.

BTW to the OP, I hope you enjoy them.

[Gorion]

anantechs review said no crossfire drivers until March.

[KasuCode]

I get beta drivers early...

Nice! Don't forget to post your results ;)

[LordJuanlo]

Yes I'm really impatient to see your results. I need to know how many cards I will be ordering

[Blacklash]

It puts up a nice 3dmock06 score and I wish like hell I could return mine.

If anyone wants a full retail box Asus HD 3870 X2 for 400usd PM me. I've used the card less than six hours.

Does it suck that bad?

[nekrosoft13]

Does it suck that bad?

from two friends that have this card i heard that the min FPS really hurt in many games.

[LordJuanlo]

Bad news, it seems drivers need more polish

[KasuCode]

min fps thing seems to be a bug thats putting the card in 2d mode for a second. should be fixed in the next driver if not a modified bios will fix it.
