What's the difference?

[lubo4444]

I have few questions about those two cards:

1. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...&cm_re=ati_radeon_5870-_-14-102-856-_-Product

2. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...&cm_re=ati_radeon_5870-_-14-102-861-_-Product


1. What's the difference between them?
2. Which one is better for overclocking in future?
3. What does Cypress XT mean?
4. What does Vapor-X mean?

Thanks.

You know one is a Deactivated Item and the other is out of stock.


Between them, this one, better cooling and clocks.

The second one is clocked higher and uses a non-reference heatsink.

So basically the second one is better overall and for overclocking. Thanks and yes i know they are not in stock. I'm mad it's really hard to get one.

Hey on the picture on the card that is out of stock i see a game on it. Does it come with a game or not?

That's what i saw too but i thought somebody might know but it's ok. Thanks though.

When they are back in stock and if they still show the game CD. I guess you could give newegg a ring and see what the deal is.

I'm satisfied only with the video card though it's not a problem if they really give the games or not but i was just wondering.
