ATI was suppose to have 32 pip on their r520 chip but instead they are only using 16.

i am soo disapointed with ATI. i have an x800pro > XT PE but i waz hoping to buy the x1800 xt or pro, however to the dissapointment of its 16 piplines. :mad:

i would rather go with NVIDIA 7800gt with 20 piplines

Ati never said it was going to be 32 pipe if i remember

that's what you get for taking rumors for facts
