I have retail prices for Portugal (local shop) and it's gonna be 349 eur for a 5870. Will have one for review (hopefully) next wednesday.
Not long till lifting NDA / release ! - was it the 23rd?
4xAA -> 8xAA

but i also have read of people complaining on the EA boards with NV 295's with piss poor performance. Could be related to anything, that card should be able to destroy that game.
yeah only time it does is if you attempt to record video for export. Then it caps down to whatever you set it to record at , default is 30fps i believeQuote:

I use front bumper view , not co.ckpit since I don't like co.ckpit views and it slows down the game alot i have noticed .
Front bumper view gives you much more feeling of speed anyway .

Hemlock Xfire = 6400 SPs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 8x the power of 4870 !!!! :shocked: :shocked: :shocked:
For the first time, Crysis will be brought to its knees :D :D
Perkam
about 600~650 , your assuming its literally twice the number of everything on the card, pcb memory power regs etc, not everything has to be doubled :DQuote:

green is GTX 295 in SLI, really quad sli. One shade of red is crossfire, the other shade is tri-fire.. jope that makes sense?
interesting to see that x3 terran conflict doesnt show any improvement really.... poor game or??

Does anyone know how to actually get a hold of a 5870 tomorrow on launch day?
http://channel.hexus.net/content/item.php?item=20337Quote:
AMD clearly has an unhealthy obsession with luring Dell away from Intel. Nothing else can explain why, having damaged its reputation with the channel so badly in 2007 when a shortage of desktop CPUs coincided with the launch of a new AMD based desktop range from Dell, it looks set to repeat the debacle with the launch of its ATI Radeon HD 5800 series graphics cards.
Sauces have revealed that AMD has committed a large proportion of these cards to Dell, so that the PC maker can launch a new range of DirectX 11 (DX11) compatible gaming desktops to coincide with the launch of Microsoft's new Windows 7 operating system.
DX11 is the next generation of Microsoft's API, which promises improved graphics performance. For games to exploit this, they not only have to be written using DX11, but need to be run on a Windows 7 PC with a DX11 supporting graphics card. The Radeon HD 5800 series will be the only DX11 cards available at the time of the Windows 7 launch on 22 October.
Dell must have made AMD an offer it couldn't refuse to persuade it to once again starve other OEMs and its channel of a popular component. AMD initially strongly denied that the shortage of its Athlon 64 CPUs was related to the Dell deal, but we have yet to hear a satisfactory alternative explanation.
It could be that these Dell systems are going to offer the Full Monty AMD platform experience - CPU, graphics and chipset - and that AMD considers this the perfect showcase for its platform message.
AMD set to struggle to meet demand for ATI Radeon HD 5800 series
http://channel.hexus.net/content/item.php?item=20332Quote:
HEXUS has sampled a selection of sauces, and they're telling tales about how AMD won't be able to keep up with initial orders for its upcoming Radeon graphics cards.
Garnished with reports of a demand that's been unprecedented in recent years, the Radeon menu looks likely to be a three course serving of sweet and sour for AMD.
As an appealing appetiser, HEXUS has established that advance orders for AMD's upcoming ATI Radeon HD 5870 and Radeon HD 5850 haven't just simmered, the dish has boiled over, which is more than some quarters of AMD seem to have hoped, let alone planned for.
Further helpings of sauce reveal that AMD AIB partners in EMEA, have (unbeknownst to each of their competitors) been thrilled by the size of their own portion of the pre-order pie. HEXUS was served up such sizzling quotes as "we can't believe the [high level of] demand", "I've never seen this in years" and "we could sell everything we can get our hands on".
And our inspection of the steamy kitchen even revealed one AMD chef, blinking in incredulity at their cookie of good fortune, who exclaimed "it's ********* amazing!"
Not wanting to waste a good metaphor, it looks like the Chez Radeon is fully booked for weeks to come. However, there still remains the small matter of serving up the dishes...
such an incomplete chart makes it quite hard to compare the cards properly... :/Quote:

I don't believe I've seen any mention of whether hemlock is to be 2 (2x1) or 4gb (2x2) reference yet. If it turns out its only 1GB of GDDR5, I'm more inclined to get a single 5870 now and wait.
Supposedly there will be two variants, unknown if both will launch at the same time in Oct.Quote:

For whatever reason, nvidia cards score better on minimum framerates in Crysis, with average framerates normalized.Quote:

30 minimum FPS median low is IMPOSSIBLE, even GTX295 QUAD SLI is 23 fps minimum. You probably need 10 teraflops to get 30fps minimum in Crysis, lol.
Nothing strange. 2560x1600 has almost twice as many pixels as 1920x1080.Quote:

does anyone know how well these cards handle AA. it seems rv870 has top notch texture filtering.
Extremely well if those graphs are legit.Quote:

I hope so, but my 4890's in crossfire, with the same settings, Dx10 AA 8, 1920x1200, enthusiast, frost, will do MIN (24) AVG (34) MAX (44)Quote:

Im so getting this, my Gigabyte rep told me they are getting only 5 pieces and its all going to newegg. More should come in october he said. This is the So-Cal warehouse in walnut.
Is the NDA released on 22nd or 23rd EST? I'm hearing both so much I don't know anymore.
This guy, 'armenianlegend' has two 5870's overclocked to 900/1200 in crossfire here (hes shown pics):
http://www.overclock.net/ati/578416-...hmarks-10.html
He's looking for someone to help him overclock his ram, and then hes going to do some crysis runs. Any takers?
September 23rd is what i was told, not 100% tho.Quote:

It also says the 5870 has 800 stream processors. Must be a misprint.
It should be available for purchase tomorrow morning, wake up early you should be able to get one, if not tomorrow, wed.Quote:

Hell, I have 3 GTX260's (3rd was being RMA'd because it died...) and I don't even game, just got it for Crysis and Vantage (28k)... but the Microstutter was soooo bad, it was epic.Quote:

Just a heads up for postumus' Crysis VH 1080p benchmark with 16QXAA. 16Q does not work on ATI cards. This is why postumus had a higher framerate with 16Q (30fps) vs 8xAA (27fps). The 16Q setting on an ATI card is essentially NO AA; I've verified with users on other boards.
A GTX285 would get about 26fps and an overclocked 285 would get you about 27.5 under a no AA setting. So double the teraflops and we get...3 more frames per second! :rofl:
Is this going to be like
8800 GTX launch (Oct 2006)
- no new games, limited availability, very high price, crazy power hungry.
, or like 8800 GT (Nov 2007)?
- correspond to launch of Crysis, cheap, plentiful,
==========
Personally, besides Vantage scores and such, I dont see the big deal. Besides Crysis, is there anything HD4890 or GTX285 can't handle (or CF/SLI)? Some reviews dont bother even with 1600x1200 or no AA, and skip right to 1920x1200 8xAA. Maybe I'm out of touch, but besides Battleforge, I dunno of any famous DX11 games coming up.
I'm in the same boat I don't see any reason to lay down $400 for this card (or $800 if going CrossFire) for marginally better FPS in Crysis, a two year old game. I have a single GTX275 and runs everything fine maxed at 2560x1600 aside from Crysis. There are virtually no demanding games on the horizon either, at least for the forseeable future. Modern Warfare 2 and Bioshock 2 are console ports and likely will run just fine on even a 8800GT.Quote:

Until something gives me a reason to upgrade I will stay where I'm at.
some people wanan run multi display options.Quote:

The option for people running 4870and such is different as they already got fps, windows 7 support for vddm 1.1 but lack tripple screen option.
Then again, some have waited to upgrade for 6+ months ;)
That he posts them mobo bios screenshots on that particular "overclock" forum... Can't believe he's an overclocker lol. Gene II should be so easy to setup... might also be his IOH overheating due to maybe the heatoutput at the the top of the card ( IOH temp is Gene II's weak spot )Quote:

relations/contacts at the factory or shops, too much money ? :p
The graph is showing going from 4x to 8x. It's also heavily possible that they're testing at somewhat cpu limited situations.Quote:
