wow what a surprise :rolleyes:
was referring to just performance. so those are some nice bonuses. i think will make a great upgrade for HTPCs, especially if they can get some without all that DVI crap, and a single slot cooler that can still be keeping it near silent. (but will probably be done by the 5750)Quote:

=newer chip. :D Its a good improvement IMO.Quote:

Hmm... I've see them bottlenecked by 3.75GHz i7 CPUs in some tests, so I think it is the platform that is the limitation not the GPUQuote:

People who bought the 4870 recently are probably not the one's who will be upgrading soon. Those that bought 4870 when it was released will probably be looking at 5870 or 5850.Quote:

I'm quite impressed, a teraflop of power for a little over 100 dollars, can't argue with that.
Im all for progression but it would be nice if they gave us more for our money instead of just basing next gen parts off the old series performance and price. Give back some of those 40nm fruits is what I say, or there is no real incentive to upgrade.
What in the world are you talking about? This is how the midrange cards have ALWAYS been - basically the same performance as the high end cards of the last gen. All these cards are of course based off the older architecture, but with refinements + added features like DX11 and what not. Considering you're getting DX11 + lower power consumption + more overclocking headroom over the previous cards for the same price, and most likely the same performance, they're priced right where they should be.Quote:

I'm sure you realise that HD4870 and HD5770 are two products aimed to different market segments, don't you?Quote:

The only thing that can save these cards is price. If priced less they can be a good option. It would of been nice to have a performance boost to at least make these more atractive than the 4850/70/90. Thats all Im saying. If I couldnt afford a 5850/70 I would still of liked to be able to buy a product better than the 4800 series for around the same price. If that was the case these would be golden.
There is a great divide between 5770 160$ and 5850 260$. We need something around the 200-210$ mark, maybe a 5830 with a 1440sp cypress core and 1gb 128bit memory interface. That would be GOLDEN! Enen a 1280sp core would be good.
Why in the world would any business do that to themselves?Quote:

5830 will be going into that hole.Quote:
