I'm bored of this card by now. Overhyped and undelievered it will be and add very delayed to the list. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that the itty bitty fan isn't going to do a good job at cooling the behemoth of a card.
she would say that if you'd stop trying to fit in her ear...Quote:

Q3-Q4 for high-end most likely, AFAIK.
Thanks, and sorry for the slight derail there. :up:Quote:

TSMC's really slowed things down
O_O that is without a doubt, larger then my 4850x2
well it definitely should be.Quote:

Some people will have a hard time fitting that thing in their car on the way home. :rofl:Quote:

my 6970 is getting ~30fps playing Crysis 1
people here tend to like ~60FPS gaming, so with a 6990 on Crysis 1 it should be possible to play Crysis 1 at 60FPS very high settings on a large monitor, 2560x1440 in my case
Crysis 2 will be even more demanding... so we will see
Early reports suggest it wont be more demanding than crysis 1.

I think that these dual GPU's are coming a little too late ... and with some specs a little under the "bar" ...
This generation of chips is very powerful ( well, +-, Nvidia yes ... AMD so so ) but they are power hungry ... and hot ...
So... the good times of GTX 295 and 5970 ... meh ... i don't see these new solutions being as good in practical terms as the old ones ( yes, they will be quicker, but i don't believe it will have the same "equilibrium" )
That's DirectX 9. What about DirectX 11? :confused:Quote:
