    Hi all

    like most people that get Custom PC i'm dying to get my hands on the ASUS HD 5870 as advised by CPC. After searching the always useful internet i've been unable to find a proposed release date let alone an actual release date and was wondering if anyone had any details on when we might expect it.

    The reason i ask is my PC is a hulking pile and is really struggling so i'm wanting to upgrade asap so if i've to wait another 6 months for the card i'd rather get a different DX11 card (suggestions?)

    Thanks in advance

    The card is available in online-stores for some 2 month allready. They just can't be delivered as TSMC is struggling to produce enough chips for the card.

    You can still order the card, and then wait for some 4 weeks until your chosen dealer got some cards delivered.
