Heck of a deal on a strong card. This is normally about $150 on sale. So, even without the rebate, it's a good deal. Oh and I'm a huge supporter of XFX since they've helped me out on more than one warranty claim both quickly & professionally with people that I could tell were just as into computers as I am.

A friend at work ordered this card today. At $90 a card, two for crossfire world run about anything.

I'm tempted to get two of these to replay my 5770s in X-Fire...... I need to see how big of a gain it would be..

I'd bet that you would have a hard time maxing them out with current games. Unless you have a super high res monitor.

i have the 7850 black edition 2GB and considered going crossfire, but i just can't justify it for what little gaming i do these days. the single card is more than enough.

According to AT, it's very hard to find any of the cheaper AMD cards like this on up because the Bitcoiners/Litecoiners are grabbing them all.

And for this reason look out for expensive hardware being dumped cheap- lots of miners burning out cards and passing them on to the unexpecting, reminds me of motorcycles up here after Katrina
