5970 benchmarks

World of warcraft as a benchmark. LAWL How the hell do those kind of websites get acces to this hardware? Literally anyone on here could do a more comprehensive review.

At least the cards not as long as some of the engineering samples, id wait for the hardocp review and others before casting any judgements.

im liking it;)lol
 
Impressive. I am also particularly surprised just how good three 5770's performed. That would make a more affordable consideration in comparison.
 
~30% better than the 295. But in some games (e.g. crysis) the difference is quite dramatic.

Also the TPU review is using a corei7 at 3.8ghz. Apparently crysis is cpu bottlenecked with the 5970 now, and that cpu speed increases results in more frames.

Also interesting overclocking issues revealed at anandtech.

ATI(AMD) finally on top. The first time in a long time.

STALKER is going to be faster on a DX11 card running the entire DX11 feature set than it will be when running the DX10 feature set.

They closed my thread before i even got to add some new links.
Firgured i may aswell add the links to this thread.

Just look at it!

Will be continually adding links to this post as time progresses.
 
So, generally 25-30% faster, that a 295, sometimes less sometimes quite a lot more. But only on the extreme settings, people with 1080p monitors or less will experience much less of a boost.
Seems to be CPU bottlenecking.

Pitty there aren't any of the cheap 295's in stock as they would be exceleltn value at 50-65% of the cost of the 5970 for 25% less performance.
 
Also, are there any successful over clocking results??

Only scanned a few reviews, hardwarezone and Anand tried to OC 3 cards between them and failed miserably to achieve stock 5870 speeds. I would expect at this stage an overclocked 295 is faster than a 5970?
