Maybe if you're an ATI fan. I am not.

What does it have to do with being a fan? Lol no need to get defensive. For the same price, you get a card that is faster, runs cooler, uses less power, and has a free game. Where's the downside?

I typed that from a cell, sorry for it coming off blunt.

Opinions aside, the 7870 is a much better deal, and once overclocked, can be 25-50% faster depending on the game. That particular Anand review is at 1150 (which pretty much most hit easy, lots hit 1200+). Check out the power consumption and temps.

Just sayin, not my money.

Keep the comparisons to the video card forum. This is to talk about the deal at hand, so compared to other 570s it's a pretty solid deal.

No more thread crapping

You're right, I'm sorry.

instore only, meaning sales tax. If I remember correctly, Zotac GTX 570 Amp is known to run hot, loud, and hungry, not to mention unstable (per professional and owner's review.

Huh? Not saying that this is a "crappy" deal, but people post opinions in deal threads all the time. Had this been a crappy deal, I would expect the community to say something. Sure, it's not my money, but that doesn't mean I can't point out a deal that might be better. We don't need pseudo-mods, if you have a problem with it, report the post.

I don't like ATI cards, in nvidia all the way

Not sure about anyone else, but I will never purchase a zotac product again. Their customer service has been horrible. Personally I'm sitting on a GTX 570 that doesn't work whatsoever. Sent it in for RMA twice and got back the same card I sent them TWICE, I put blacklight invisble marks on everything I send in as RMA so I know if I'm getting back the garbage I sent in. And one of their ion kits that kicked the bucket after like 3 months (multiple attempts to get this RMA'd was complete fail with no responses from them after trying their "fixes".
