When you have consumers who are addicted to g-cards this is how you screw them.

ummm you can buy a 2gb version for $600 which runs any current game full settings well over 60 fps in 1080p, im actually buying one in like 2 months

The listing is not a leak, it is viral marketing by XFX to stir up interest. Look at the videos on the link.

If you really have that much money to waste, buy a normal 5970 and overclock it.

It'll be $300 by then.

for one million $$ i would buy the best Car out there, big house, and a hot blond chick looool PC Nerds must get a life.

Friend just got this email:

Dear XFX Customers,

In light of recent events, we have come to suspect that one of our 5970 Black Edition Limited cards may have been compromised. In our current inventory check of this limited run of 1,000 individually serialized pieces, #68 has been unaccounted for. Due to evidence of a security breach in our facility, we believe it to have been illegally obtained as the product has yet been released per the embargo date. Please be aware that the person responsible will be subject to persecution by law. If any news can be provided to lead us to the apprehension of the suspect, or you can provide us with any information, please report it to security@xfxforce.com. Please do not attempt to buy, trade, or barter for this unit. We thank you for your cooperation and apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Sincerely,
XFX

This is stupid. I don't like XFX and their viral marketing.

Gives it away as marketing. No real company that cares about security would give such information away in a mass e-mail.

Eh, I'll wait 6 months and get it for $300.

put it in my pc, ps3, and wii
