I have ordered and paid for a new rig from DS with an ATI Radeon 5970 graphics card. It has been stuck in Stage 5 part two stress testing for weeks now as I wait for the card to show up. Is anyone else going through this experience? Ive been told by DS customer service that they have "80 machines waiting just for this card sitting on their workbench". Does anyone have any info as to when these cards will really be available at DS or anywhere else? Thanks

I had the same problem...I called and talked to a techie who told me Ati recalled some of the cards and that they are only getting like 3-4 at any given time. There are a LOT of people waiting for the 5970's not only at DS. What I did was call and tell them I wanted 2x 5870's instead...I didn't feel like waiting for 2 months and 2x 5870 > 1 5970 so works for me =)
