There are some decent priced Reference 5870s on amazon. I was wondering If I should jump on it next week when I get paid

Go for it. Visiontek is great.

I would recommend gigabyte, msi or xfx over it, but its still good

If its there next week when I get my check, I'm definately going for the reference. If its not there, I'm grabbing a Gigbyte

Visiontek isn't too bad, I would recommend them if they are the cheapest.

ya visiontek is good, i generally dont buy them just because i can find XFX cards easier but still i had a 4850 512mb visiontek and it was great, then i found a XFX 4850 1gb for an insane price so i got it instead then as a gift for christmas i acquiered a second one
but still, there pretty good

it's a good brand. You can take it into your consider.
BTW
this one is a good card in the " 5870's world "

to be perfectly honest, every review I read about Visiontek's customer service/ RMA was horrible. It took a few months, and they never return your emails, and the ones who made the complains about the RMA contacted FBB.
I was looking on Amazon as well and was deciding between Visiontek, Sapphire and Asus. I went with Sapphire because i hear better things from them and it was cheaper than the Asus card. I didnt get Visiontek due to their customer service I read. Plus with their lifetime warranty, I had bad experience with XFX and their lifetime warranty, so I wanted to stay away from warranties like that. I see it as a make-up for poor quality.

My two cents. Good luck though. Im pleased with my sapphire 5870

no problems

Visiontek and sapphire are the best.

Had a vision tek card a couple of years back, never any issue

Visiontek is a fine company. They are one of the few ATI AIBs that offer a lifetime warranty.

Xfx is the woooooooorst evaaaar

I had 2 Visiontek 4870 512mb about 2 years ago. I sold them to friends and they're still running strong without any problems.
