really..

ya.. absolutely...

but hor.. the price for ATI depends on distributor one ler.. if malaysia distri stil keep alot stock. they won't apply price cut for 4800 series. unless their stock is clear.

even 9800gtx oleidi drop price in US, but malaysia always never follow up one. Same like 3870 last time also. Malaysia price controlled by distributor, but like in US, if announce price cut, everyone must follow up, u no follow up, u no sales.

As one of the disty for both NVidia and ATI, I would like to stress that things are NOT as simple as you all may think. There are too many variables: time of order, production delay, length time of stock arrival, exchange rates, logistics charges, financing costs etc.

In short, we can say there would NOT be any reduction of prices for 4850 and 4870 anytime within this month. In the first place, HD4850 should not be priced around RM650+ at all.

This is just to clarify for those who are planning to buy or budgeting for HD4850 or HD4870. As for 3850 and 3870, YES, these models have new costings, so it's a matter of who bring in the new stocks at new costs.

Hope that helps. Thanks peeps.

Nice one there At least for those who bought the card wont feel like they bought it at a higher price hehe.

why not? we all love low price.

IMO, there's no reason not to follow the new price. in Newegg, even though the price has decrease by following the price from ATI, Newegg doesn't suffer any loss because ATI will give discount on the next shipment of products.

Our distributor follow other kind of pricing i think. I dont see any price cut at newegg yet, and 130euro is still around RM650.

sishh he meant the price is too cheap not the other way around..
some ppl..

With rebates, you could get a 4850 at USD150 at newegg

road tax rebate = rm625
trade-in with 4850

lol.. yeah thats a another way to spend ur rebate!

anyway have to wait at least next month la to see price change.. yeah who doesnt want low prices?

haiyoh. not need wait next month la.. if u have extra cash on hand. just go for it.. and enjoy ur games.. but since u are 3870 user. then stick on ur card.. cas long as u can play ur games then enough already.. i saw everyone selling their 3870 at RM450 or lower at garage sales.haiz.. 1 month++ old card.

i never tried huntkey v power on 4870. but got few customers buy huntkey v power 550watt pair with 4850

if 4870 then have to take titan 650watt Rm299 each. "nas" buying this combo package.haha

655w modular?

some would say waiting game is pointless in PC world.
but look at what's nvidia just done.
GTX280 dropped from USD659 to USD499 while GTX260 from USD399 to USD299.

sometimes the waiting game is worth to try, it depends on the situation imo.

i'm using st56f...no problem at all

Anyone here did a pencil mod without a multimeter?

hmm thinking just add an express power unit so no need to buy a new psu kekeekekeee should be nice

you should consult sniper69, he tried that with 3870 before.
a cheap DMM only cost around RM40.
