Though I can't confirm this pic, I can say that there is more than one reason to wait for official reviews on April 6th, so please do wait for them.

for comparison a i7 940 + 4870 1gig scores only X4124

and a GTX 280 with a 3ghz q9450 (similar CPU score) scores only X4822 http://service.futuremark.com/result...eResultType=19

:shocked: this card will be a beast

As many times as rumors have been spun about RV790, I would only trust an ORB link. :shrug:

In all fairness we should wait until the release date. :D

in all fairness they should sell a few thousand of these before the release at 2x the price, cause theres gotta be some people who will pay a premium just to say they were the first

if you go into the links and to the original forum they have a few more benchmarks

clocks/ram: gpu score

stock 850/975: 4386
925/1025: 4906
950/1075: 5068
1000/1125: 5334

cpu score was ~10500 for all tests except the last where it was 11373. im not sure if that scaling is way too fast for the small increases in mhz

which do u think will clock higher and reach 1ghz core clock a 4890x2 or 2 4890s ?

I'd go with 2 4890s XFired, rather than 1 4890X2.

My 2 HD4870's XFrd could OC to 880/1100 and blew away a single HD4870X2 since it could only do 862/1025.

Indeed, we should. Though, for some reason I thought that this thursday was the 9th, until my calender burst my bubble. :lol:

sorry for delaying photos, i waiting for permission of ASUS

But some new info:

I have complete PDF slides for new graphic cards ... dont ask me for publish anything!

proof:
http://i40.tinypic.com/358z6dt.png

1. Spec are : 55nm RV790, 800 SP, 850/3900MHz, Power consuption in 2D is better then 4870, in 3D os higher (no internal improvements RBEs, ROPs, SPs)

2. Layout change of PCB is not because more SP or higher Performance, but new Power savings profiles ... card is really cool in 2D

3. You can OC every card to 1 GHz on GPU, and you can to change Voltage too! ! !

Pics today

AMD Radeon HD4890 priced at £230 @Novatech.co.uk

Quote:

Following pictures of the GPU, a look at its specification, and pre-order listings down in New Zealand, we've now been dealt an even bigger hint suggesting that AMD's Radeon HD 4890 is imminent.

Novatech.co.uk, a UK-based etailer, is listing PowerColor's Radeon HD 4890 1GB with a price tag of £229.99. That's around £50 more than PowerColor's Radeon HD 4870 1GB, and pretty much what we were expecting in terms of pricing.

http://img.hexus.net/v2/news/amd/novatech-4890.jpg

What's interesting is that Novatech claims to have 100 of the cards arriving tomorrow, presumably in the hope of fulfilling orders sooner rather than later.

However, we've been expecting the card to arrive sometime in April, so we're putting this down as an error on Novatech's part, for now. Either way, AMD's Radeon HD 4890 is just around the corner, and it's very likely to be priced around the £230 mark.

You're right! Massive brain fart on my part :(

It clearly shows that Vantage is not my favorite benchmark.

about time, since you can tweak so much on your mobo and nothing on your gfx card. Also, voltage options are incomplet with no vram voltage adjustment. :D

More proof please...Just b/c it says 800 shaders / 40 Tmus doesn't mean anything.
