Hey guys,

I've currently got one of these http://pricespy.co.nz/product.php?p=807758 and now I'm trying to get a second one for crossfire but I can't for the life of me find anywhere that still stocks them. The reason I'm wanting another one of these specific models is because I'm eventually going to look at getting EK back plates and water blocks for both of them and was hopeing for the cards to look the same. Otherwise if someone has a different 6950 2GB (doesn't necessarily have to be a Sapphire card) that they'd be keen to sell then let me know as I may still be interested :)

Thanks

HD6950 2GB 2 fans: http://www.computerlounge.co.nz/components/componentview.asp?partid=15248
Looks like it got updated to 2 fans, there must be a reason for that. So then you will probably not find the single fan model new unless you go for a lower spec card in the family.

HD6850 1GB 1 fan: http://www.pcforce.co.nz/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=21_26&products_id=1393
PC Force is a small shop in Highland Park, East Auckland. A couple of years ago when I needed a video card, got the price and address off the web site, then went to buy it from the shop they were reluctant to give me the web site price. Something about you need to order it through the web site with free shipping, so if you go there be prepared to dispute this as it is not stated on the web site. Perhaps the distributor ships it for free? Otherwise no issues. You can always ask if they can get you the HD6950 you want.




You can never have enough Volvos!
