Because earlier last week i ordered one (Which was supposed to be my 1st one) but the order confirmation failed because of details i put in was incorrect....fine...ill try again and this time it worked, and it came saturday....awesome :p

But now they send me another confirmation today saying the re-tried my old order and it worked and now are sending me another fucking card!!
Thats another £260 ($500) inc delivery out of my bank account.

Yes i want to go SLI but not this fast!

So yea, its been a expensive weekend for me.

So yea, i will be ringing ebuyer up tomorrow telling them they can have their card back and i want my money back. ... unless i can be convinced to keep it

Get your money back, sell your original 260. Buy a 4870. Then you'd have saved yourself about...  £300

Yeah, that's BF2s for you. You could've gotten the card for free and you'd still be bashed for it.

Although I'd do what Jenspm said - get a 4870x2.

This card is too expensive, let alone two. Either keep one of them  or return them both and get what they suggested above. Seriously, I don't see any game that is currently out that will need two of those cards. Pft Crysis, but who cares?

DId you read the 1st bit...ahh nvm .

I think this card is definately worth the money though, i can max out any game so far, and can max crysis out but with no AA.

No, don't give me wrong, its cool you got that card for the price of 280GTX I'm just saying I would never buy that card since its so expensive.

That actually isn't bad, Overclockers are selling cards for £550 ffs. Maybe that's the 280GTX. In that case, I would stick with your current card, and return the other one.

260GTX is 250 GBP = 372,36 EUR 4870 is 215 EUR = 144,35 GBP (and I know you got the 280GTX). More like 100 pounds more.

Ye but 4870 is better than 260GTX. And you save a lot if you order it from Germany, after all we are in EU right?

That doesn't stop them from basically killing all non-Finland import to this fucking island...
The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP
