[expected] Radeon HD 5870 looks to be in short supply for now
 

Releasing the fastest single graphics processor is an impressive feat, but it doesn't do anyone much good without actual products on store shelves. AMD's Radeon HD 5870 hit online listings this morning in conjunction with the launch. A look across North American e-tailers suggests it's not exactly flooding their stocks, though.

Looking through Newegg shows four Radeon HD 5870 variants from Asus, HIS, PowerColor, and Sapphire. All have the same list price, $380, but none are actually in stock. Similarly, searches at TigerDirect and ZipZoomFly dig up nothing but a handful of unavailable cards. Only NCIXUS breaks the mold, with one PowerColor card in stock for $387.10.
