Amazon is selling the HIS Radeon HD6970 2GB (RoHS) H697F2G2M for $203.99 after rebate, $223.99 without rebate... compared to $329 at newegg. The card is Temporarily out of stock, however you can still order it. You will not be charged until, and if it ships. It's probably a price mistake, but nothing to lose for a card like this if it goes through.

Still available as I write this smile

After rebate, its a couple bucks less than I paid for my two HD5870 towards end of life. HD6970 won't be replaced for a while yet.

A potentially great deal (depending on HIS reliability) for someone wanting two cards for Eyefinity -- should beat a dual-GPU HD6990.

I jumped on it as I was boarding my flight home this afternoon. Ordered two. Was going to swap my vanilla gtx570 for two gtx570 2560mb. Keeping my fingers crossed they honor the deal.
Pretty clear it was a typo. Right now it's not available anymore. Thanks for the headsup Zbob.

I got in on it but have not heard anything outside a message that the parts will ship when they're back in stock. The $20 rebate has been changed into some sort of $20 prepaid card. I'm also on a waiting list for two gtx570 2560mb. Whatever arrives first goes in. If they're about even in performance the 570's go back. If it's a big win for the 570's the 6970's will have to find a new owner, no need for a profit.

Update. I got an email from Amazon that it was a mistake and the transaction was cancelled. I got a $10 certificate for Amazon. Too good to be true afterall.
