wow xD i guess we could be looking at 45fps average in crysis maxed out with mature drivers then awesome! this will be one good card. imagine what the x2 will be like then...

 

[Dazboots]

Looks like it's game-over for matrox's triple head to go.

This is what I've been waiting for for a long time.

All I need now is to see 'allows you to span the taskbar across multiple monitors as if one' and I'll be mugging some old ladies to fund a 5850 and a third 2408.

When these cards come out what will a secondhand 4890 be worth

Don't know but I'm definitely going to find out

 

[grudas]

looks like a good card As im not trying to be with the best card (low res) i think ill be upgrading to 4870-90 one day.. i hope before Christmas they should get cheaper... yet im happy with my 8800gt

 

[Retromatic]

Excellent, bit of a noob question but will a 5850 be more powerfull than a 4890? Or do I need to wait for the 5890?

 

[Tom|Nbk]

Well it absoloutely smashes the 4890 CF if those benchies are true.

 

[Orangey]

That's disappointing, Crysis with 30fps minimum is not "conquered". It'll be conquered when you can get a steady 60fps with vsync. There may be hope for the X2, but I doubt it.

Been fiddling around with a few URI's, this looks interesting;

Auth required - I'm guessing that's where they're hiding the new stuff until launch

Nice find, what's the betting the password is evergreen

As I recall there is a 3rd party utility that does that for you

I've used them all, I want a true application of a task bar that spans multiple screens.

So the system tray is on the far right screen and the start button is on the left.

I'm using Display Fusion at the moment for adding additional task bars, but I want the windows task bar to span.

Thanks though
