taken form ocuk site

RV570 core is very easily overclocked to some amazing speeds, maybe as high as 700MHz but OcUK or GeCube do not guarantee overclocking potential. Also equipped with ultra fast 1.2ns memory this card is capable of hitting some high speeds for those who wish to overclock, again neither OcUK or GeCube guarantee any level of overclock. However in testing when these cards have been overclocked to 680MHz core and 1620MHz memory they can equal the performance of an X1950 XTX. This is a truly amazing card and ONLY available from OcUK!!

you state that over clocked you got this card to the same performance as a x1950xtx is that statment ture can you please back it up?
because if one of these overclocked can equal a x1950xtx , then i am deffo up for 2 in sli!
please tell me your not tellinf porkies! , and if you can back it up , in what benchmarks /games did it equal the xtx ....many thanks!
as i said they look ok , stock , in cross fire but nothig great , so if overclocked.... you get my drift!
 
I'll take my hat off to you if you get 2x of these working in SLi. :p

Gibbos just going on what has been said about them as far as im aware, he doesn't actually know himself if they can hit XTX speeds, but im guessing putting that in the description will get more sales in. ;) :D

He did say they were around x1900 XT 256mb performance, but as you can see from the reviews they get whooped, he meant GT really, typo. :p

Still says x1900 XT performance as well in the description, id edit that Gibbo if i were you to GT, its false advertising, don't want to have to deal with all those complaints. :p

but they should be gt speeds anyway , thats what they are replacing , do you see a problem with 2 of these in crossfire?

Not at all, they look pretty darn good in crossfire, especially for the price, so definately worth getting 2x of em, its just you said SLi. :p

Id have gone for 2x of em myself, but id probably need an RD580 board as well as ive got the older crossfire one here, but ive decided to keep my x1800 XT 512mb, and go Conroe instead. :)

For crossfire id probably get the 512mb's, as crossfire is best at higher resolutions, so the 512mb would be better in that respect. :)
problem is they havnt got the 512 advertized , also i will be gaming at 1440x900
