My New Toy!!!!!

oh looks very good, and a pretty decent price but i'm trying to hold off on any more pruchases just yet. as i want to the cyborg RAT and Razer Blackwidow when it comes out.
 
Haha! I bet it's noisey - a real roar from in your case...

I mean a real roar, like a lion when you switch on demanding attention! XD
 
looks like an absolute monster :D

these threads always make me wanna buy a new graphics card......wonder would the gf do without her iphone4 xmas pressie.....hmmmm
 
IMO if you're going to get a 480 this is the card to get if you can afford the extra over a reference card, the cooler on its own is over £50 to buy..

Why exactly? Don't say 'because the new ATI 6*** series are out next month'. Sick of hearing that.

Sick of hearing it? It happens to be true, so whether you're sick of hearing it or not, I couldn't care less. It's how it is. New cards are coming soom.

Soon or soom? ;)

I'm still waiting for somebody to give us cold hard evidence that AMD are releasing their top end cards this month, and not some rebadged, reworked 5770 which may only be slightly quicker than a GTX 460.

Oh noes, a typo, it's not like "m" and "n" are right next to each other now is it? :rolleyes:

So you're choosing to believe one rumour over the other, for what reason exactly? Where's the "cold hard evidence" that it's "some rebadged, reworked 5770 which may only be slightly quicker than a GTX 460"? :rolleyes:

I only picked you up on it because you're a massive grammar nazi yourself, anyway it was meant in jest hence the winking smiley face :rolleyes:

Still waiting for some concrete details of release dates for these AMD cards, you have any?

Every rumour i have seen states the new card coming this month has performance between a 5850 and 5870 making it 20% faster than a gtx460 1gb which is more than a little faster. I have not seen any of the rumours stating that the high end is due for release this month.

A rebadged and reworked 5770 is laughable as it clearly will not be anything like that to get the kind of performance figures that are floating around.

Some rumours have been placing the launch date for the high end in november and some december.

All we have is rumours to go on for the release dates with the odd performance chart showing up as usual.
