ATi must have dropped the prices... like, bigtime.

Damn!! Some of these are as low as $184.00 - $20.00 MIR = $164.00.

Now I only need to convince the wife why I "need" 3 more video cards

Dang, that is cheaper than a GTX 260, gotta get at least a pair of 'em :drool:

In for one, and don't forget the free game too...

May want to consider this deal too although the price has gone up since yesterday : http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/hot-deals/930819

I picked up this card a few days ago for $185 AMIR only $200 before MIR, so still a decent deal!

But the price is back up a little higher now. Just sharing that 4890's are definitely cheap!

I got the unOCed version for $180 and I thought that was an incredible deal. But a 4890 for $165 is just redonkulous. You would be crazy not to buy one of those, unless you already have one.

I don't get it, whats the difference between multiple 4890's of the same manufacturer? Becuase they don't say Crossfire ready? Doesn't crossfire work regardless?

Rattle · Jun 11, 2009

all the sale cards under 200 are all reference, same same same

I'm going to hopefully be ordering one next week. I'll pay the 15 dollarsish extra for the XFX, I love those guys :beer:

are the 4890's significantly better than what i have? (EVGA 896-P3-1257-AR GeForce GTX 260 Core 216 Superclocked Edition 896MB 448-bit)

Nah, I wouldn't say they are significantly better. A little better, but I wouldn't say it would be enough to warrant an upgrage, IMO.

I recently upgraded from a 260 216, and for the what the 4890 ended up costing after selling my 260 216 (roughly $40), it's a pretty decent upgrade.

Im also going to try and sell my GTX260 and buy a pair of these, if not, at least one, should only cost me about $50 bucks depending on what I get for the 260.
I would think a pair of these would be a nice stepup from a 260?

I would certainly say so!
