I was checking that, the card get almost half of the impact the 3870 has when enabling 4xAA.Quote:

Interesting specs, 1Gb and 850 core.

RV670: 16 ROPs (2z&aa/clk)
RV770: 16 ROPs (4z&aa/clk)
Thats why...
260€ is a great price indeed for the launch.
That gddr5 memory will do miracles :).
This is also a 1 GB version, the 512GB version is supposed to be cheaper although I don't think we are really all that interested in that version.Quote:

I don't think that shop has it's specs correct or that card is heavily overclocked out of the box.
Did some searching around in Dutch shop, but can't find a 4870 yet. There however is a 4850 up for pre-order, for around €156,-, that cheapest NVIDIA 8800GTS 512MB that can be had is around €160,- and the cheapest 9800GTX is aroung €210,-.
Not cutting corners. Probably due to that fact that the number of stream processors has more than doubled from the HD3000 series, and AA is done in the stream processors on ATI cards.Quote:

900 unified shaders?
Edit:, it's probably 800, but it looked like 900 to me :P
Now we just need W1zzard in here to confirm that GPU-Z can detect R700.
Nice, but look at the CPU score. I don't think any Phenom can give that kind of score. Did AMD use an Intel CPU?
holy insane score batman!.
12k @ extreme in vantage o_O
it says R700 in CrossfireX
Is that a single "4870X2" board or two of them?
GPU-Z says "4GPUs" so it would be two R700s.
two of themQuote:

Bridge PLX is there only to "fools" the system that there's one card in PCIe slot (its lame explanation, but the simplest one)
^^^ yes but effectively it's the same thing, cross GPU communication is less than ideal.

Which is what exactly? I'm not being glib I'm just asking.Quote:
