Yeah, I had been keeping an eye on the Egg all day yesterday and I pulled the trigger as soon as I saw them. I wanted to make sure I secured any early set of the reference design cards so I could make sure the new Koolance 7970 waterblocks will fit.

I posted up here as soon as I saw them too in order to give my ROG brothers the heads up! Hopefully they come back into stock soon.

You have no idea how much I hate you right now DangerClose - 3 you are running 3 and I can not even find one.

There are a few other choice words I would like to add at this point but suspect the admin would strip my status and ban my ass if I did. 😄

Enjoy them mate and post up some place how they work with the Crosshair V board re throttling or anything like that happening yeah. And link back here so I can check it out please.
To help us help you - please provide as much information about your system and the problem as possible.

I noticed over at HardOCP folks talking about the launch time for the card. Eastern Pacific time launch were bandied around. So I thought to myself I bet they mean Thailand time and sure enough.

They were all sold out 5 minutes after I ordered.
Got it on Wednesday.

Wow what a card………….

These cards are SWEET. Best thing AMD (ATI) has released in many generations. Although some folks are having some driver issues, mine seem to be running fine in crossfire. They run quite cool. I've overclocked them as far as AMD Overdrive will allow and they totally stable. Now I'm working on upping things more the Asus GPU Tweak. Man these things are beastly fast!
