sorry, I know that dell owns them, I just meant that DELL would buy them if they were the fastest but would put them in an alienware box.
alienware would have to hire half of the nvidia marketing team to convince people to pay their prices for "pretty fast" or "one of the fastest" cards. if nvidia makes a 375w card that kicks the crap out of 5970 then they'll sell as many as they can make.
@jd007: perhaps you are right and that is the reason for the delay, though I doubt it. if they were significantly faster than 5870 on a single gpu with any kind of volume then they would push that out right away, then tweak it/hand pick cards for higher model #'s like 8800gts512+++++.
