6000 series confirmed for next week

Much better than expected!

We done some quick benchmarks against a 5850 and it beat it at everything.

i presume the drivers will increase performance over the next few months so it will probly beat it by a fair way by then

anything?

5850-725 core 6870 900 core, I should bloody hope it would beat it at £200.

[RavenXXX2]

Yeeh it's in reply to Gibbo as well, do the math.

i dont have to do any maths for the statement i made, i stated that drivers would likely increase performance over the next few months which has NOTHING to do with clock speed, dont drag me into ur slagging plz

Yeah and the difference between the 5850 and 5870 was like 5% when clocked the same, plus AMD have optimized the shaders better in the 6*** series.

Either way bring on the benchmarks.

 

[jbloggs]

10PM tonight at OcUK they will be live.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Think I'll be holding onto my 5850 for a while yet....but look forward to seeing the benches.

Pretty sure only Cayman is using the 4D shaders.
