Nvidia's new Fermi GPU sucks. Because of this, I am slightly worried about you guys not lowering prices on your high-end offerings (5800 series) simply because Nvidia isn't really competing. Please lower the prices on the Radeon HD 5830 and 5850! The MSRP of the Radeon HD 5850 is $260; meanwhile, the lowest you can get it on a retailer is at $300.
If it gets to the actual price it should have been in ($260), I'd consider buying it.
This is without considering, of course, that the best price/performance ratio right now is with a Radeon HD 4850 CrossFire. It's around 5% faster than a Radeon HD 5850 at 1680x1050 and 1920x1080 all while costing only $190. You can get a Sapphire-branded one from Newegg at only $95.
Please can you make borderless monitors?
because then EyeFinity would be pretty cool

Multi Monitor is ok for Programs like Photoshop on one,Maya or another ,sandbox on another ect.
But for Gaming, No.
My opinion of course, It's a good option. Nice to have it.
