Drivers, lacking support...Quote:
This i know But, i thought the new card would fare better
Hmmm, about 100€ cheaper than GTX 580 and 30€ expensive than GTX 570, so performance wise it may be around there, between them.Quote:

GTX 570 is 339€ in the same shop :(Quote:

P.S. Lost PLanet 2 is heavily Nvidia. I tihnk some review had the GTS 450 beating a 5870 in it :ROTF:
edit: why'd they pick P settings and Lost Planet 2 huh? Those are pretty obviously the ones that were Nvidia favored from even the German leaks showed it :down:
So basically OcUK have more 69xx cards on their own than GTX580s exist in the worlds shops?
That's a hell of a pyramid lol
There were some 570 at ~300€ last week in a few french online shop :yepp:
-2 points for lacking the Christmas star.

AMD to Bring Extra-Large Vapor Chamber Cooling to HD 6900
http://www.brightsideofnews.com/Data..._Vapor_675.jpg
As you can see in the image above, unlike in their previous attempts at Vapor Chamber cooling with modest sized vapor chambers like in ATI Radeon HD 4870X2, the approach with Radeon HD 6900 Series is more akin to Sapphire's pioneering 3870 Vapor-X, or recently the GeForce GTX 500 Series.
This massive Vapor Chamber cooling is the reason why AMD Radeon HD 6900 Series is achieving remarkable overclocking results, just like the GeForce GTX 580 and 570. We've seen GTX 580 working at 895MHz, GTX 570 at 880MHz as well as viewed results of Radeon HD 6970 clocked at 980MHz, and 6950 at 1010MHz. We've spoken with numerous board manufacturers and they're all telling us that this generation of graphics cards is "vintage", with overclocking headroom spanning much beyond the last generation.
Who'd knew, perhaps TSMC is finally maturing their 40nm process.
A 6950 at 1010? Nice!
:up: nice, but here :Quote:
A 6950 at 1010? Nice!
880MHz-980MHz = 100MHz :(Quote:
Radeon HD 6970 clocked at 980MHz
If these figures are common overclocks. These would be the gains.Quote:

GTX580 772 -> 895 (15.9%)
GTX570 732 -> 880 (20%)
6970 880 -> 980 (11%)
6950 800 -> 1010 (26%)
Only if it's extra tasty, like honey wheat or that hawaiian stuff!Quote:
