AMD To Launch RV770 On June 18th

[muon]

Firstly: GPU-Z doesn't get the number of shaders by looking at the core itself, it just looks up data added by the developer (whom I assume isn't a staff member at ATi), their guess is as good as ours.

That and, yeah, the shot is clearly a joke, 52GHz memory? Yeah, I wouldn't hold your breath for that.

Yep, this is what w1zzard said in the last hour.

He can post up a proper gpu pic tomorrow then but probably won't

so is it still out on the 18th or do i need to wait yet another 6 months to upgrade from my x1950 pro ?

Get out.

but but but..

Intel Extreme Graphics 2 supports the latest 2D and 3D APIs, delivering real-life environment and character effects. A 256-bit internal path enables up to four textures per pixel on a single pass for super light maps, atmospheric effects, and more realistic surface details. Flexible display capabilities enhance the personal computing experience, offering significant benefits for applications requiring 32 bpp and higher display resolution.

Where can I get one of those beasts!?

You need to eat a cheese and ass sandwich and wait until you're hallucinating!

 

[Lightnix]

No no no, look!

9800 GTX:
lifelike game play

Intel Extreme 2:
real-life environment and character effects.

See, the 9800 GTX only provides life-like whereas the Intel Extreme 2 provides real-life!

And and...

9800 GTX: 256-bit

Intel Extreme 2: 256-bit

There they're practically the same!

The winner? Intel Extreme 2!

... Okay I'll stop now. <<

On the topic of IGPs, with the 4 series is there a good chance of a new integrated chip to replace the 780G?

 

[Lightnix]

It seems probable, but likely not until 2009:

AMD 800 chipset series is a set of chipsets to be developed by AMD, scheduled to be released in 2009.

Sorry if i missed it i haven't been keeping up to date. Anyone know the price of the 4850/70/70X2?

Can you still change the voltage to the cores and memory on ATI cards using ati tool? If so there is a much bigger benefit to watercooling your ati gpu than your nvidia.

~£130 for the 4850, ~170-200 for the 4870, no idea for the X2.

 

[david25]

If true then only 480 shaders

And what is the point running crymark at 800 x 600

OK, try these at 1920 x 1080 + cod5 etc

Wiki is your friend
In the past Wiki has been entirely accurate about upcoming hardware Specs.
And its a very useful place to comapre different cards!
So here you go:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compar...essing_Units#Radeon_R700_.28HD_4xxx.29_series
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_NVIDIA_Graphics_Processing_Units#GeForce_200_series

As you can see, Bandwidth, and Pixel and Texture Fillrates, are much faster on the GeForce 200 series cards.
But by looking at the 4870 Specs, we can expect the 4870x2 to be pretty awesome and closer to Nvidia's arrogant price point.

Perlin noise test pretty much confirms 800SPs. Posted by no-x at b3d:

perlin noise

HD3870: 175
HD4850: 335


335/175 = 1.91

800SP * 625 MHz / (320SP * 777) = 2.01

I do so hope ATi stick to their original NDA lift date so we can know one way or the other, the suspense is killing me.
