X1900 ... what is known ?

[Vogon]

I have been out of the loop for a bit, so can anyone update me on the x1900 specs/features etc ?
Will one of these be faster than 2 X1800XT's in crossfire ?
What sort of expected retail price ?

Cheers

thats about all ive heared about it

 

[LoadsaMoney]

Its all under NDA.

 

[lordedmond]

I know one thing about the ati x1900..



its going to be expensive

 

[LoadsaMoney]

Yeah around the price of the 512mb GTX according to Gibbo.

 

[Vogon]

Hmm well TBH not too impressed at the X1800XT crossfire speed increases from reviews I have seen.
Will be interesting to see what the X1900 puts on the table.
I think the main problem now is top end CPU's are just not fast enough for current high end graphic solutions

 

[roadie]

There's only 2 weeks to wait...

 

[lordedmond]

I don't think i have had a top end card superseeded by a new card from the same manufacturer, talk about a short life span

 

[lemonkettaz]

im scraping money left right and centre to get one.

hopefully i can sell me current card.

x800gto... anyone interested ? £80... seems fair

right cheers.

im not at 90days yet anyways, i dont think.

 

[LoadsaMoney]

Id say the x1800 XT Crossfire was pretty good, considering it equals, and beats the 2x 256mb GTX's, and in some cases even beats the 2x 512mb GTX's, then yup id say thats a pretty good start, and Gibbo has already said when the RD580 chipset comes out in Feb, Crossfire will be even better, much faster than SLi.
