Do you guys think the rumour is true that there won't be a 5870x2?
Just a 5970 or whatever they will call it.

Why do all saphire products have to have craply rendered girls on them, spend some time getting them to look good like asus's!
Those pics confirm HD5850 actually uses a different, shorter PCB than that of HD5870.
cant wait for a thermalright cooler to be announced
there will be. just will coincidentally come out around the time of gt300 :up:Quote:

does anyone have an idea if old heatsinks/waterblocks will fit this? i got a DD 2900 full coverage block i might wanna modify to fit one of these, would be nice since it was so expensive.
apparently its same standard mounting they used for a while :up:Quote:

Otherwise the 5870 seems to be a better deal at ~£275 inc VAT.
Man that 5870 is slick. The sticker isn't great, but I don't have have a window in my new case anyway :D. It'll be interesting to see what the other manufacturers have.
No, the mounting holes are the same from the 2000 series to the 4000 series.Quote:

sorry I should have explained myself better. Those images don't appear to be the real card. If you look at the larger image, you will see that where I've circled on the image, the sticker overlaps the expansion slot.Quote:

either a fake, or someone just got fired
i didnt notice it at first but yeah, i see it now
ummm
Considering the dimensions of the card, the XFX livery with Green and Black will look VERY nice.

Yeah, it's supposedly called the 5870 Six, although it looks like it's about the same size as the 5870 X2 is rumoured to be, but we'll have to see.Quote:
