scene 3 221.67
scene 4 118.59
Ran it twice and got pretty much identical numbers, i think these are higher than the ones amd posted on their graphs. Anyway Im sticking to things i can easily dl and benchmark as I dont have much installed right now, so if there are any other games like RE5 and DMC4 which have a demo/benchmark you can dl and run LMK and I'll try to run it for u.
do some 3dmark runs! it would be nice to see 3dmark2001 se, 3dmark03, 3dmark05, 3dmark06 and 3dmark vantage scores!Quote:

if i had one of these babies i'd bench it with tons of games in no time :D
Wasn't this shown to be Shop'd earlier in the thread?? Overlap at sticker intersecting exhaust vent.Quote:

Yes. Also I believe, 99% sure anyway, that the longer card is the REAL length of the card..the other card is photoshopped down version.Quote:

Also, those aren't stickers, neither of them. They are just photoshopped on as well.
Ok, now that we solved that we can move on to other things. ;)
Thanks for confirming my previous assumption postumus... Full AA at 1920x1080(people, quit acting like this isn't high enough resolution for testing) in crysis still isn't happening...
Ah well, guess I'm sticking to my 4850 and watching to see what NVidia shows up with.
Where'd he post his benches of that? I don't see them going back a few pages... EDIT found him commenting about it but no benches.Quote:

Check out the Arma 2 demo, there are several locations to download from, including steam and a torrent.Quote:

Reality. Check.
XFX offers you the ultimate reality check with the new XFX Radeon™ HD 5870 and 5850 graphics processing units. Bringing three new dimensions to gaming reality, these graphics cards challenge the limits that have restrained your gaming. Until now.
First, ATI Eyefinity Technology literally broadens your horizons by enabling you to spread out across three displays at resolutions of up to 1080p. Use this “wrap-around” in-picture experience to become fully immersed in your gaming—or productively immerse in your work.
Second, ATI Stream Technology gives your system a significant boost by offloading tasks usually sent to your CPU to your GPU. The result is a more balanced gaming platform that can handle the demands of today’s fully immersive games.
Third, both the XFX Radeon HD 5870 and 5850 offer full Microsoft® DirectX®11 support so that you can push your settings to the max and still game at the highest resolutions. And, sure-to-make-you-blink 3D effects are generated through HDR Texture Compression, DirectCompute and Tessellation.
As John Lennon once said, “Reality leaves a lot to the imagination.” At XFX, we couldn’t agree more. Especially when you’re talking about the XFX Radeon HD 5870 and 5850 graphics cards.
Game on.

Cool, imma wait to see what nvidia has to offer, not like my current video card doesnt play all games maxed out. When thinking about it, enless you plan on playing DX11 only games, i dont see a need for new graphics cardd just yet, but i will jump on either this or the GTX 380, waiting to see which is better. Price for me doesnt matter, as long as one is better than the other.
I'm snagging 3d mark06 now, I haven't had it installed in ages, ppl still play 3dmark I see ;)
those DMC4 numbers are they good or bad? I havent seen the game benched on another card.
seems on par with the 4870x2 ....and then someQuote:

I am very suspicious of XFX. A lot of their cards use lower grade components and cut down heatsinks, which they mask with customer service. Given the choice, I'm going to buy another ATI brand next time.
Meh, other than perhaps MSI the other brand warranties suck (Sapphire LOL).Quote:

Uhh I dunno bc I have 1, I could take pics of it running in my case with a piece of paper with a msg on it? or I could just take a screen shot from CCC or 3d mark where "5800 series" is displayed, you tell me.
thx for providing links for the various things to bench, I've only been playing heroes of newerth beta and have been totally out of the loop game wise, though I have kept up with the hardware news thx to sites like this 1 ;)
Yeah a paper shot in your case would be good.Quote:
