Hope its not another 2900.
So same performance as a GX2 which isn't too shabby really for £260.
Plus the bonus that if you have a 3870x2 already and you just buy a £130 4850 you will have that performance as well.
I want to see other games though, fed up with crysis results.

correct presumption
I honestly have never cared so much about the release of a new card until these 48xx series....?
I did with the GT. Hit F5,F5,F5,F5,F5,F5,F5,

Pretty good considering the price of the card.

Going by that it does look like a pretty good card, its pretty even with the 9800gtx and in a few benchies (grid mainly) isn't that far off the gtx280.
Fsaa performance does appear to be fixed as well.
so where is easy now that it's quite obvious the 4850 is a better card than the 8800GT :/
Nope, same RV770 core but with higher clocks and some model will have GDDR5 as well as 1gb memory

And what do you know, that French preview says it has 800 SP.
Is that confirmation enough for everyone now?
Probably not because some numpty on the bay will probably put them with 480 shaders sooner or later and suddenly become the most credible source on the internet.

Or Fud will say its doesnt have 800.
well i hope that article about how there could be another 40-60 shaders waiting to be unlocked is true
Well it does make sense that there isnt exactly 800 as I dont think that would work, so it would have to be like 840 and 40 of them locked or what ever. So ive read any way.
Let's hope some one figures out how to open them up too like what happened with the 9800SEs!
