Was like $800 a month ago when it came out. It is essentially 2 6970s on one board IIRC, only insanely HOT. But it is the top card on the market now (finally beating the 5970 which was there for close to 2 years), aside from maybe the nVidia GTX 590, which is roughly 2 580s...Way more power than is necessary right now. My friend's getting the Gigabyte 560Ti factory-overclocked from 822 to 950 mHz for his new desktop, that thing is supposed to be amazing (and only $260 for essentially a 570)!

I'm thinking of getting a 6950 and doing the bios mod. I can pick up a 2GB model for around 250 hopefully.
