not bad, wonder how much its going to cost

skirkham · 16 Dec 2008 at 21:15

how much is it ?

the physX part is pointless, it like showing how a dx10 card compaired to a dx9 card when running a game in dx10

LeJosh · 16 Dec 2008 at 21:15

Surely have to take those benches with a pinch of salt?

That or it will be £450+ release.

Datamonkey · 16 Dec 2008 at 21:16

Can bet it will be an arm, a leg and possibly a testicle to go with it

Looking at those results one would be sweet for my 30" dell

skirkham · 16 Dec 2008 at 21:16

the way exchange rates are 500-600 wouldnt surprise me

Nice if its true looking at the stats its a gtx260/280 hybrid as its mostly a gtx260x2 with some gtx280x2 stats. The performance graphs are probably a little off though lol.

Sorry I'm late...

Brought some for everyone

Got the clocks/ROP's/interface/memory of the 260, the Streams/Texture filters of the 280.

Anybody else think it looks like an old VHS tape?

Haha yeah it does.

Bet it'll make more noise than one on fast forward tho.

On idle.

How are you going to fit a water block to that?

Your right! It does, lol

Will the downclocked budget version resemble a betamax

Early days but that card will probably have staggering performance.

Yeah, but its a dual GPU, so with the staggering performance comes the underwhelming performance in areas where the technology is not supported.

True.

There really isn't much difference between

and

is there ?

Doesn't seem that much of a gain over 4870x2 10-20%? You probabley wouldn't notice it in real-time anyways..

Would be interesting to see benches at lower resolutions, and it wouldnt suprised me if it costed between £400-500.
