scaling awesome
people that dont speak english must have done that.
"pelative crossfire scaling" ?!!
Im holding out for the S3 virge comparison
I must say that I am really looking for to Wednesday when I trully expect to see massive performance boosts. I just received payment processed confirmation and this is when my second GTX580 is due to arrive.
Good luck with the 6900's.
That is a silly thing to do. If they indeed prove to be not so quick the 580 value will probably remain the same. If they prove to be amazing performers for less money that nVidia, then, prices will go down. Either way there is no point buying now unless you paid something silly for your 580 (£300 or thereabouts).
As I said a bit ago, for things to be manufactured it takes around 2 to 3 weeks. If after that you also account with shipping the card from asia, even if you do it by air you are surely adding nearly another few days. It's probable they ran into difficulties when doing the new drivers but its also probable they wanted to keep the new thing underwraps for as long as possible. My guess is that all the top reviewing websites (Anand, Toms, etc...) have got a different set of drivers to the one that comes with the cards.
Hi there
Its gotten 5870 beaten in every synthetic benchmark we have run so far.
Its tesselation performance is very good.
how about vs gtx580

I should bloody hope so! If it can only just beat the 5870 then AMD are gonna get laughed at
So far, we've seen AMD slides comparing performance to GTX480 and GTX470 (soon-to-be EOL cards), and now comparing against the GTX285 and GTX260 (two-generation old tech).
I understand the context in this case, but the real comparison will be against the GTX570 and GTX580, and we've seen nothing on this from AMD.

It cost me £342 after using a 10% discount code. I couldn't loose and I had to use the code before it expired.

If that's the best thing that can be said about it, then things are really not looking too good

Hi there
Thats all I have compared against so far, I wanted to compare it against what it replaces.
I shall grab a 580 to run against later today or tomorrow.
I think it will be slower in some things and nearly as fast in others, but not faster!
Difference will be availability and substancially cheaper.
