Haven't been updating this, but I just ran into this card and bought one today. Seems like the best ratio of price per mh/s. It's currently OOS, but just order one and they'll only charge you once it comes back in stock and ships. One of the nice features about amazon is that some stuff you can still order even though it's out of stock to reserve one at the sale price. I'll also add this to the first post. Btw, if you didn't already know, the 6670 is the exact rebranded name of the 5670.

XFX HD6870 1GB (with free Dirt3 game) - $140 AR @ newegg

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150561

as far as I can tell, those cards are the exact same, except this one is smaller (8.66" x 4.4" x 1.5" vs 10.3" x 4.4" x 1.5"), says "AMD Advanced Parallel Processing Technology (APP)" in features while the other one does not, and is $10 cheaper instead of including Dirt

are there some other diff between the models?
You're right, thanks I'll add this to the OP. They're essentially the same, except for some few minor differences like size and cooler design.

I'll try to organize a more centralized way to post deals on hardware since I noticed this forum does not have a section for that.
