Gah, this is annoying, I'm tempted not to go to bar to get wasted, and rather stay home and get wasted for proper reviews, but I suppose I'll go to bar anyway, pick up a girl and bring her home and when we're here I'll just tell her to sit tight, I need to read through some reviews first
Or you could just get high, and then even the official reviews will look semiaccurate. :smile:
did Hexus not mention fan volume? they ran it at 80% for their overclock... you'ld think they would have noticed
I guess I could take that as implying the noise level wasn't bad, but that just seems unlikely. Tolerable or horrible, that is the question.
Guess we'll find out soon enough
100MHz OC on core, hits 101C in Furmark with fan @ 80%:

Isn't 5870/4890 around that mark to even if fan is around 80-100%. That aslong as the ATI driver gimping of Furmark is disabled (throttling system). I sure know my 4890 got upwards 100c for the non-gimped test.
Charlie's still suggesting his scores of 480 are accurate on Twitter.

Whatdyya think?
When OC'd perhaps, for 4890, but 5870 shouldn't get near those numbers even OC'd for what I know

we'll he's been on top of ATI and NVIDIA these past months and he's been right over the majority of the nvidia calls
If you used the name-changed exe for Furmark to evade the ATI driver throttling then upwards 100c or even more is what happens (with some variation between different GPU sections/VRAM). Search the net for lots of these tests and I can also back that up with 2 different stock 4890 and 4870. Use Everest Ultimate Edition to monitor all graphic card temps.
His claims of clocks seem too low to be vindicated, given recent "leaks". And performance is correlated with clocks.
remember he said that the clocks were at a certain level and it was shortly after that leaks were showing that they were being purposely lowered.His claims of clocks seem too low to be vindicated, given recent "leaks". And performance is correlated with clocks.
so now we are hearing a full 512sp which was originally very low yield being "prepped' as a full card later onremember he said that the clocks were at a certain level and it was shortly after that leaks were showing that they were being purposely lowered.

yeah its crippled
Well his clocks were for 512SP version, were they not? And now we have 480SP version, giving possibility to throw higher clocks
It is easy to add, just change the number which is a tesselation factor (doable in real time) and you're getting more triangles. Whatever else is happening means nothing here because I was talking about tesselation and nothing else.That you think it's so easy to add
