I gotta ask, what's the point of buying one of these for $729 when Newegg has the 5970 card listed at $499? They both top out right about the same place in terms of hash rate. Is the 6990 less of a power draw? Still, the $230 difference in price is pretty significant.

warranty, resale?  i'm not thrilled with the $499 5970s... will post more on them in the other thread in a bit...
