AMD To Launch RV770 On June 18th

That would be another big reason for an Ati win this time as people won't have to discard cards they might not have had for long. If it keeps going like this Ati will have pulled off a master move in all areas.

Ill say it again, high settings=DX9, very high= DX10, no doubt he selected to run it in DX10, but why not run it with DX10 effects where his fps would hit the deck, even the benchmark regards it as DX9 at high settings, even though he has DX10 selected.

I only recently purchased a 3870 from here, if I could simply get a 4000 series and crossfire it with my old card I would definitely buy one. I was thinking of holding off for a year but now I don't know - that's an awesome idea.
 
I am impressed with how well everything seems to be coming together for Ati this time it's a hell of a shock given the recent history. Nvidia on the other hand well i am not sure how things have gone so pear shaped for them but swings and roundabouts. What would also be nice is if Amd can do this on the CPU front as well although sadly this time round i have gone with Intel as the advantages were just too big over Phenom.

Yeah big advantage ATI have. I notice the latest driver release for Nvidia enables you to mix and match cards in SLI but only on their top end boards and only with GTX260 and GTX280's.

So no good to all the G92 card owners out there even if they had a SLI mobo.

To be far, when overlocked the Phenoms perform better clock per clock than Intels quads. Unfortunately the quads clock higher and hence win the race.

AMD were close and on price is competitive. Just to many Intel board owners out there now who only have to update bios and slot in new chip to upgrade cheaply.

Maybe next round since Intel need new boards, things might be different.
 
I didn't see many things to say the Amd's were as fast as the latest core2's i must have missed those :(. Best i saw was the 9850BE approaching Q6600 in somethings but not all and i took that to mean it wouldn't compete with anything higher then a Q6600. Anyway i am taking this OT and i want to keep it on topic so raven can entertain us some more :).

At stock speeds yes. As you overclock the AMD it overtakes the Intel. Like I say though, the Intel chips reach higher overclocks.
