    AMD: R9xx Speculation

    Should we take this as a "yes, you are going to see all reviews with 8.851 drivers on?" :wink:

    Interesting... :wink:

    Lower than prices shown on that site, I meant. :wink:

    AMD: R9xx Speculation

    Maybe prices for Cayman will be lower than that on those places. ;)

    AMD: R9xx Speculation

    Hmm, too low I think. Considered GTX580 prices, HD6970 seems fairly priced and also preferable, if it could deliver a comparable performance (maybe 5-10% below) at almost $100 less. HD6950 seems a bit overpriced, if compared to the HD6870. Maybe a 20$ decrease will help. At those prices and...

    AMD: R9xx Speculation

    In AMD slides? :shock: This means that there could be room for improvement even on what shown on marketing slides? :?: That seems pretty pointless from AMD if it is so... I mean, shouldn't marketing material show best case scenarios? Hmm, so are you saying that these slides are real but older...

    AMD: R9xx Speculation

    Judging from the benches of the guys posting on Hardwareluxx.de, HD6970 is better than a GTX580 even on Crysis at 1920x1200 AA4x. ;) To me it's not bad at all... It seems like by cherrypicking benches an HD6970 could challenge a GTX580, so it is probably a bit slower across the line (5-10%...

    AMD: R9xx Speculation

    Maybe I didn't pay attention to the whole discussion... But who did say that the unit that has to go is the "fatty" one? I mean, to me it doesn't make sense at all to eliminate the only unit capable of doing transcendental operations... It would mean to rethink all units (making them all special...

    NVIDIA Fermi: Architecture discussion

    So Fermi is rougly three times faster than Cypress in triangle setup... This is something I was thinking about, looking at iXBT theoretical tests... http://translate.google.it/translate?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ixbt.com%2Fvideo3%2Fgf100-2-part2.shtml&sl=ru&tl=en&hl=&ie=UTF-8 It seems like it's not...

    NVIDIA GF100 & Friends speculation

    NVIDIA GF100 & Friends speculation

    The recommended PSU is not really indicative when it comes to TDP... It can be more indicative of the real consumption, maybe... For example, a 600W PSU (without any recommendation of current ratings) is recommended for a HD5850 crossfire (...

    NVIDIA GF100 & Friends speculation

    Picture / source? Between a GTX280 and a GTX260 192SP there's a smaller difference than between a GTX480 and GTX470, and still the two TDP differ of more than 50W....

    NVIDIA GF100 & Friends speculation

    If it was even 290W, they would have said <295W. If it's < 300W, you can be sure that 295W<=GTX480 TDP<=300W. Well, as long as you get enough performance, you could be right. But, as the supposed GTX480 MSRP price may suggest, there are some chances that you could get a good deal of...
