Hi!

Does anyone know what cards are out there (if any) that uses the A2 stepping
FX 5600 Ultra chip? (the rev/v 2 one with 400MHz core / 800MHz ram).
I'm waiting to buy one of these but they seems to be slow to show up, and
with most manufacturers it's confusing to what theya re using (speccs seems
to say one thing and pictures another).
Those I belive already have these newer cards are Chaintech, PNY, BFG and
eVga.. but where do you find them? Seems there is nowhere to buy them...

Best Wishes
Thomas




Safest. Wait six months until all the current stock of FX5600 Ultra is
exhausted........... Don't expect the 3rd party manufacturers or
retailers to tell you, or uniquely-ID the boards. Money lost if they
can't exhaust the old stock first.

Can't wait 6 months though.. maybe another month, but prolly not more than
that. Those boards specced at 400MHz core 800MHz ram should be A2s though,
right?

Yes. 400/800 is the flip-chip, booty kickin version.
