    I hate to start another speculation thread, but I was just on the AW website and it seems that the 3870's are in short supply (i.e. it says the 3870's 'may delay your order'). Could this mean AW is receiving new shipments of the 48XX cards soon?

    Additionally, the base price seems to have jumped up to $1400 (to possibly reflect a heatsink revision or motherboard upgrade?). Discuss.

    Was it $1400? I thought it was $1349. I stand corrected. :)
