DEAD: (2) ASUS ATI Radeon HD4870 1GB's - GOOD THRU 6/30

[Spikesoldier]

Heres how it works gentlemen

$150.96 each
ewiz has a promotion now on their front page for $20 off of $250+ orders. Use coupon code SUMMER20.



order two for crossfire, subtotal is $301.92.
apply the coupon for $20.00 off, taking it down to $281.92.
get your bing cashback of 5 percent ($14.10), lowering it to 267.82 + shipping out of pocket.
--------------------------
ASUS cards I can speculate will be as good as their mainboards are. ASUS also has a very nice cooling system on this SKU. ASUS is one of the few companies that allow for two rebates per household. $20 each on this SKU gets us $40 in the mail later, bringing the total to $227.82, or $113.91/ea. + shipping.

Shipping was $13.57 for me.

At about $110/ea it was enough for me to break down and buy a pair. At this price point, this is 4770 territory, not even paying mind to the 4850.

Act fast, the rebate will expire tommorow, June 30.


=========================


Edit: Stick a fork in 'her, this deal is DEAD.

Not a bad deal if you're going for crossfire...

 

[Kelvrick]

Hmm... Anyone feel like splitting a pair?

Which ASUS card has a rebate? Not seeing it at eWiz.

I am guessing this rebate:

With this card:

Lists the rebate as a channel-wide rebate. No mention of ZZF in the PDF flyer. Not a bad deal, if you don't mind dealing with rebates.

I wonder why there's that black bar blocking the CrossFire connectors. To reduce PCB flexing?

 

[MoMeanMugs]

Amber, I don't know why it's there, but it's not blocking the Crossfire connectors. It gets thinner right there.

 

[AmberClad]

Looks like you're right. It's hard to tell from the eWiz pic, but the ones at NewEgg show a better view of the area around the CrossFire connectors. And it looks like you can unscrew it pretty easily anyhow.

Oh, how I wish I was employed... Awesome find, OP!

Great deal I wish I had the cash to get it and go tri-fire with clocks close to 900 core.

Cheap way of protecting the components like caps on the PCB.
