then ill just say the drivers arent mature enough to let the ram be the bottleneck, it seems like the easy way to win this argument.

Who cares about pricing of the 4870 at launch?
According to Spain prices, this is what we have:
-4870 @ 120€
-GTX260 @ 125€
-4890 @ 160€
-5770 @ 150€
How am I supposed to buy a 5770 when all those cards are cheaper and/or better? It doesn't make any sense at all folks. DX11, less power consumption and all that stuff are just gimmicks and I would rather buy a 4890 or GTX260 for that money...
Seriously, it doesn't matter if this is low-end or high-end, what matters is that you have existing products that perform the same or better for the same or less money. Senseless...
Yes but from a buyers perspective you look at the competition your product is facing in the moment of purchase and 4890/4870 are some tough competitors if you ask me,also DX11 has yet to make a stand in games,by the time it will have a good install base like 5 titles 2 of them AAA then I will make it a must for my card to support DX11.
Heck by the time we see AAA dx11 titles ati will be on their new architecture. I see this series as a stop gap to something better.
no surprise actually....
The 8600 GT didn't beat the 7900 GTX,
the 4670 didn't beat the 3870
I don't think we will see a mainstream product beat the previous generation high end.
But the pricing, that's another issue.

Well, I posted a lot of pages back when we thought it was 1120SPs. I still think that this has a place in the market for some. For myself, while it doesn't have the initial specs the performance seems to be better than a radeon 4850 that I own. Lower power consumption, heat output and a shorter card still make it worthwhile. Does this mean I will pick it up for the release price of $160? Hmm, maybe I probably won't buy it since I am short on money due to dental bills and hospital fees, but once I have more funds I imagine the price will decrease.
For this mini-itx owner, it fits perfectly.
ok so looking at the benchmarks, I'm screwed! my crappy little 4870's get smoked by the 5770's damnit!
i dont see any benches where the 5770 cant keep up with 4870 im confused. in most i saw 5770 beat them marginally.
they are probably adding 30-40$ just for the DX11 feature. cost wise, this is cheaper to make than a 4850 by quite a margin i think. let ATI soak in some profits while they can, not like you have any other option if you want DX11 and dont have 250$
Actually , take a look at those crossfire scailing numbers over at guru3d. It almost scales perfectlly double. It even beats out a 5870 fairly easily. 2 of 5770 ftw
This has to prove some kind of performance issues with 5870, way more potential.
i looked at afew reviews, in some cases the 2x 5770 does win, but it also quickly falls behind once you turn up the AA or resolution.
