Sapphire HD4870X2 spotted in e-tailer at €433 and below
 

Sapphire Technology SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 4870 X2 2GB GDDR5 PCI-Express DUAL DVI-I TVout 256bit aktiv has been spotted at an online webshop at a price of €433. In that same shop the cheapest NVIDIA GTX 280 is at €383. So a price premium of €50 for a video card which is a lot faster in games where CrossFire is properly supported and on par/slight slower in games where CrossFire is not supported. A good deal?

Thanks to Thorgal for spotting this one!
