$549 – $599, high consumer demand
AMD’s highly anticipated flagship 28nm single-GPU card, the Radeon HD 7970, has now officially become available from Newegg nearly twenty-four hours before its official launch.
The 28nm Tahiti-based GPU is available from six different add-in board partners – Sapphire, PowerColor, HIS, ASUS, XFX and Gigabyte – with a price range between $549 and $599 and approximately $8 dollar shipping within the continental United States.
We expect more AMD retail and online e-tail partners should have already received inventory and will begin listing the card for sale within the next twenty-four hour time period. Meanwhile, we expect Newegg’s preliminary inventory to be purchased very quickly, as these cards are drawing large amounts of anticipation from PC hardware enthusiasts who value their overclocking potential and overall performance benefits.
