question about next gen gpu

Holdon Tight · 19 Aug 2011 at 21:43

Does anyone have any information about the next gen cards? Comparative speeds and power. Are they going to be much more powerful than present cards?

no idea.

Supposedly double performance. However, it will probs just be better performance for price/energy

not really. Maybe get rid of one and get a zalman cooler for the other?

oh, AMD 7XXX cards may come out fairly soonish, but I doubt it - not the high end ones anyway
