I donīt see why not... but that whould jump up the price.Quote:

this statement is 3480% marketing BS :DQuote:
AMD RS780 is 261% Faster Than AMD 690G in 3DMark06
261% faster? I don´t even have to wonder why :D
For you that don´t remember, 690G uses the same chip as x700/x1250, which in my head was almost as flawed as the nV FX series. Mind you I´ve owned both.
On topic: Finally some newer igp tech.
x700 flawed? :eek:
x700 = r300 = radeon 9700... that chip wasnt flawed at all... the x700 just didnt clock so welll :P
x700 was great in notebooks.
with powerplay nearly same power consumption like intel gma but enough power for even most newer games at low-middle details.
@ topic : great. now i need to decide to get this for htpc or cheaper mobo + low-end ati.... hmm
I had a FX5200--sad thing is the IGP would absolutely own that... plus I had 128MB DDR and the damn thing took a nose-dive in any gaming. I'm happy IGP's are getting some 3D performance... it should help to be a new driving force in PC gaming.
I don't understand why ppl so exited about integrated graphics. For the last two ears I'm using Gigabyte 7600GS Silent Pipe in my HTPC. And even two ears later it is still a way faster and better solution for Home Theater then a new RS780.
your crappy 7600GS doesnt have UVD....Quote:

I see 20-40% CPU utilization on my crappy (not overclocked) E2140. NVidia says it has hardware decode acceleration for H.264, MPEG2 and WMV9.Quote:

I'm not sure about the price of MB with integrated DDR2/3 memory. Will wait and see.Quote:

For a HTPC this would be
1.) cheap
2.) low power consumption ->
3.) low heat dissipation ->
4.) quiet
5.) space-saving (your 7600 needs over a full-height PCI-slot, right?)
Also, if the lowest member in a hierarchy steps up to a next level, then the
ones above have to get better, too.
So what's not to like about this news? :)
Awesome! If the UVD on this thing is up to snuff, I'd barely need a CPU in the HTPC at all:D
That depends on the memory controller in the IGP, it might only be capable of DDR/DDR2. 128MB would be nice but I don't think it'll get much of a improvment over the 64MB version.Quote:

(translated review is loading slowly)
so the RS780 has onboard h.264 decoder/UVD, whatevers its called?
this is the shizzlick, im gettin my DDR3 mobo with one of THESE
C'mon AMD, intel killed your processor, hit intel's weak spot for MASSIVE DAMAGE - kill off its useless integrated graphics!
>.<
I see this as the first step in superiority of the DAAMIT platform. Maybe in 2009, the IGP would be in the CPU itself :shock:
Not quite...Quote:

pretty weak ? much better 6600gt ?
x700xt was only like 20% behind and with AA it was even smaller difference.
That's like calling 3870 pretty weak compared to "much better" 8800gt.

Which 7300GT falls under 1200 3dmarks? Mine goes over 2000 marks with all stock with 2GHz "Sempron X2". :|
Though.. mine has GDDR3 + factory OC. ;_;
don't know about gt, but the 7300gs does only get like 700Points in 3d06 with A64 4000+ on it's side : click
maybe you want to say 2000 in 05 ? that would make sense.

That's pretty good, at least an improvement. Something I'm after for 45W edition in HTPC usage. I've been waiting long enough now. :)
The most significant thing to me will be those boards utilising the dedicated memory, that really is a killer still with current IGPs.. even driving the Vista Aero interface for example, or other progs using D3D will suck mem bandwidth away from the CPU and slow down the rest of your system if you're multitasking.. this would spell an end to that hopefully :yepp:
