Are 7870's actually selling?

[jacktesterson]

I see 7870's selling for $330-360 range here in Canada, where 7850's go for $235-270.

There really is no point in going with a 7870 compared to a 7850, at least in my views. Pretty much any 7850 will hit 1150 Core, while some will even hit 1300 or higher, putting the 7850 above a stock 7950.

Just another example of AMD's wonky pricing

Neither are smashing hit according to Steam.

And before someone says that Steam HW survey is bull,
I'll just add that representation of 680 and 7970 at their corresponding Clubs over @overclock.net is identical with Steam numbers.

I.e. 3:2 for 7970:680.

7870 is overpriced and IMO not selling

The 7850 has 11% better performance per dollar than the 670. The 7870 has 3% less. They're not terrible buys right now. Still disappointing given last generation's pricing though.

Only HD7850 still sells. HD7970, 7950 and 7870 essentially doesnt sell anymore.

And this is by looking at stores stock and backorder movements.

How do you tell if the cards are selling if the stock levels are 100+? The only way you'd be able to tell is if it dropped below that level at the time you're actually watching. Are you assuming that because it always stays at 100+ that no cards are being moved?

Its rare they got 100+ in stock for any card

Plus you can also see backorders movement.

All these people who say such and such a card isn't selling because they are in stock need a lesson in supply and demand. It's Apple marketing 101 with all of their product releases.
