... now that's pure power baby.
Asus' Matrix is clocked at 894MHz/4800MHz
Why did Asus leave the memory at stock speed?
not too sure, i thought the clocks were meant to be 900/4900? perhaps the mem bus on cypress can't handle anything faster?Quote:

BTW Sapphire 5870 Toxic 2GB is 925MHz/5000MHz
yeah doesnt seem to get much of an increase in fps over 1gb version if u game under 2560x1600Quote:

In the Anandtech review Fermi's perform below Cypresses in BC2 as well, although Anand has sweetened the situation by talking about the minimum framerates in which Fermi "tramples" Cypress.Quote:

When will the card get reviewed? I want to see how well it performs. Hmm, looks like the tech report article reviewing it.
MATRIX 5870/2DIS/2GD5 I just saw it on the Asus website now

That one

yeah if that was the 2GB matrix for $430, i would have wet myself and clicked the buy button, then go change my underwear
the asus eyefinity card looks sexy, carbon fiber stickers!
any reviews of the Asus V2 yet?
I remember when the 5870 first came out, there were a truckload of people crying: "WTF 1GB ONLY?!?! WTF WE WANT 2GB!!!! OMFGZZZZ MEMORY BOTTLENECK OMFG!!!!"
has anyone properly done a test of 1GB vs 2GB 5870s on a modded crysis with texture packs included?Quote:

+this current games don't push it i agree but special mods do and there are plenty of themhQuote:

i love how everyone is blabbering that 480 has awesome dx11 power unfortunantly in real games its nearly on par with 5870 :ROTF:Quote:

In upcoming games you'll be sure to see much higher levels of tessellation available in game settings which Fermi cards can utilize to greatly enhance image quality while keeping playable frame rates.Quote:

As a current owner of a GTX285 and former owner of HD4870, I'm definitely going to wait for both companies to refresh their current cards. nV definitely needs to work out its heat and power issues through a refinement of TSMC's process... and I'm sure a more mature .40nm process would be of benefit to ATi and allow for less heat and higher clocks.
