QUOTE(choyster @ Jan 17 2008, 12:44 AM) hope 3870 drop price because of this Because of R680? Won't affect much...but maybe lots of people ditch their HD3870 for the R680 lah. And you can get them cheap 2nd hand   This post has been edited by clayclws: Jan 17 2008, 12:56 AM |

QUOTE(soulfly @ Jan 18 2008, 02:46 PM) thanksit's 3.27 now.  so 449 x 3.27 = 1468 add another rm200 for etc charges should be around RM1.6k here. if this is real, it will be a nice card in terms of performance per price ratio. |
