@Safan80 thanks for posting the Picture on the right ATI Overdrive is the most important.
edit: At what point overclocking wise, did you have to increase core voltage?

Very nice, what is this going to retail for, relative to two 5850s?
$599 usd
Ahh so its more efficient price wise then :)Quote:

PS: and yea, it was an Intel-based server, maybe it got angry.
heh thought it might have been
its very nice that you guys are getting so much traffic :)
I think Charlie can confirm it. :)Quote:

Still a better bet than 2 5850s if you have the room I suppose.
I personally still feel that thees cards are being held back somehow... They don't seem to be the improvement then should be, on paper anyways. Hopefully scaling gets a swift kick in the pants over the next few driver releases ( and if my 4870x2 experiance is any indication, I expect they will )
^ that always seems to be the case with the x2 cards when they come out or xfire for that matter..i just wish ati would have drivers out for them that are up to par on launch..it hurts them by not doing so imo..
Depends on what rumor you read.Quote:

Well, pretty simple... If you have free slots and a short case then you buy two 5850s.
If you don't have free slots or you case is a monster then you get 5970.
Any info regarding the noise ? The card super long size is supposed to help in the cooling and reducing noise purposes compared to previous X2 cards, right ?
i think hardwarezone has a bottleneck somewhere i thing as you let the cpu fly higher the gpu will respond to that as do most ati cards from at least the HD3XXX series and up
so if they're wrong how does your statement make any sense?Quote:

yawn! tired what i ment was that the 5970 is not bad! but also nothing special. the gtx 295 review in fps in crysis wars is wrong i play @ 1920x1200 and get 40+:up:Quote:

Really would like to see a high-res picture of the PCB. The pcper article has a cut up image, useless for people who actually care how the PCB is laid out. Guess I'll have to fork over $600 in order to see one pulled apart :p:
Good luck, nobody except reviewers really have these cards. Not even OEMs... they cant sell any.Quote:
