Wheeeewww! I was beginning to think ATI was dropping the ball and I would have to stay with NV. My dual head SLI phase cooler won't fit between those slots.

I have seen both the standard board and the dual "SLI" version, I even touched them both and yes both were working.

Hopefully not long to wait now ;)

You mailed fudo ?
I didnt expect an answer from him =)
What does he mean with "used for upcoming product" ?
They gonna photoshop stuff on their product boxes from now ?
Then why not make 8 PCI-E slots and say its for upcoming products =)

I heard grouper was on E3 but they say it wasnt running there ?
I GUESS they are real close to release both version, single and some SLI version but then why use photoshop on a box ?

No I hit the 'Flame Author' button at the bottom of the article, I suppose it went to Faud, or thier complaint dept. aka paper shreder ;)

I suppose if Sapphire were responsible for the pic (I doubt it) it may have been they didn't have an multi vid board on hand and had to mock it up for E3. Purley my speculation though.

I use Paint shop, eisier to fake stuff ;P

Why not 12 32x PCIe and we'll call it a day :)

Actually it only has to have similar performance and NO boot/dead hardware issues.
If it does it will get alot of attention even though it's behind.
I will say for certain, that if this thing runs close ( or better, we don't know) to a DFI NF4, I will certainly buy 1 just to save the headaches.
And my guess is alot of other folks will also.

this is true, but for every 1 that have a DFI with dead hardware issues, there are 25 happy customers.

but it is true when you ssay that most people still looking to go for 939 will get this over a dfi if it performs similar with no hardware issues. however i dont think that too many will switch from DFI.

As we all know here the DFI NF4 is an EXCELLENT clocking board, when it's running.
I do NOT believe that this board is a really big seller OUTSIDE of the enthusiast community(I could very well be wrong), so IF what I think is true, to me that means most of whats going with this board is being discussed in the community ( unlike other boards that EVERYONE buys).
1 out of 25?
I dunno about that #, I see thread after thread after thread regarding cold boot issues with this board.
I am USUALLY of the thought that only folks with problems come to these boards to sort them out, but thats regarding the average board....
Not this one.

Great board when it's running, but there ARE issues here, no doubt in my mind.

For every post in this forum with a problem, which is USUALLY user error (i was once one of them too), there are at LEAST 50-60 boards sold.

1 in 25 is a very low number IMO. I know 4 friends that all have one, along with me, and they all have worked 100% perfectly out of the box, even using a venice. :stick:

DFi's QA is doing great now. Now we just gotta hope sapphire can keep up :D

So a dfi lanparty is a good enough board i guess. I guess, I'll give up and buy a DFI :(

Was once one of what?
I agree that problems with boards/hardware have a very high tendency to be user error ( barring hardware issues of course), and have stated this many times over the years.
The polls that I see are alot worse than 1 in 25, and thats in the enthusiast community, where a better % of folks actually know what they are doing.
My board ran mint until I decided to take out my VCard, and then reinstall it, so maybe folks that build it, get it running, and leave it are having better luck.
I dunno man, as I stated it runs great when it feels like booting, it is THE board for AMD performance as of right now period....., but there are alot of folks having issues with it not booting.

Here's to a quick and awesome debut of the Sapphire, they have the cards stacked against them though thats for sure.

Have a look here at the new ATI based boards which will be on display at Computex

- VR-Zone article
- Sapphire Computex Invite with product info
- DFI has an Lanparty UT RD480 board on display here

where the RD400 is intended for Dual Graphics MB and the RX480 is for the OC/Enthusiast in shiny white color

There are many situations where others have flaunted performance numbers but have many skeletons in the closet when it comes to compatibility and robustness. I can't tell you how many SATA drives I've wiped out on another vendor's platform wheras to date I haven't wiped out any on SB400.

uh, no, we were both wrong. you tried to say i made up that RD meant radeon dual and RS radeon single. Greyskull said i was right, but wrong about RS meaning radeon single, as RS means radeon shared. RX stands for radeon xpress.

Boy, you're what, 18, maybe? Must be to let that make your head so big. :fact:

Some other points to straighten out, IDE will be included on all boards. As for an RD580, there is no such piece of silicon. It is named properly as a next generation part, but doesn't exist.

Now please, let's stay on topic here.

Anyhoo, yes these are labels and it may not be entirely ATI's fault for the confusion. The partners who make the boards use their own names for the chipsets at times, but based on the boards out RIGHT now in retail...and I've been following the retail boards quite closely, I've seen a pretty consistent naming scheme, which I posted in my first response to you .

and you said this:

which was not entirely right either.

the first chipset released was the rs480, not the RX, and the chipset in this white board is the RS480,not the rx, as you can see by this bios shot posted earlier by bigtoe.

from what I am reading about the crossfire cards - you can only run an x800 master with an x800, and only an 850master with x850? that true? if so - suck! I have a good XL (check sig heh heh) but when I saw that x850 master cards would be well above $500, and x800xl masters $300, I grabbed an x850xt since I found one really cheap, planning to go with x850+x800xl in crossfire. So now it is looking like I would need to get the $500 master card - or sell the x850 soon as it gets to my door, keep the XL I have, and get an XL master. sheesh, I just wanna plan!

Now why would you go buy an x850xt non master card if you already knew that you would need a special mastercard in order to run crossfire? Seems a little ignorant to me.

Sell the XT, wait for XL mastercard.
06-05-2005, 03:24 PM
__TRONIK__

because when the master cards were first announced, no one said anything about them only working with specific cards. IE no one said you needed and x800 master to use an x800 slave, and so forth. that announcement came later. I didnt want to go with 2xXL and didnt want to pay $500+ for an x850 master, so getting the Xl master and a slave x850 made the most sense - until it came out you could not use them ogether, days after I got the 850.
and I bought my x850 when I did because I expected, and still expect, that crossfire compatible slave cards will spike in price, just like SLI capable cards did when SLI was imminent. and the x850 was $350, which was the lowest I have seen yet and the lowest I expect it will be for a long time.

and don't go calling me ignorant. I've probably forgotten more about overclocking than you'll ever know about it. .
06-05-2005, 07:10 PM
situman

soooo since i have a x800xl, i can only buy a x800xl master card? I thought one of the advantages of AMR was that we can use any combination of ATI master and slave cards.

From all of what I've heard, we might have to wait at least a month for these :( ...and in that time, more will go Ultra-D when they lose patience. Which I cant blame them for, but its a shame.

I dont think they are entirely noobs. I judge them based on their outstanding graphics cards. Sapphire has always been my choice. Since they are one of ATI's biggest ally, I am sure they worked very closely together to come out with a kick ass mobo that would benfit all 3 parties - ATI, Sapphire, Consumers. This way, ATI and Sapphire will have a flying and highly recognised start........ :D

I'll be more patient and will wait the 2 months it will probably take the boards to hit the shelves. DFI burned me once in the NF2 days with their craptastic boards and so bad Euro support. Now seeing their NF4 boards are still plagued by the same old probs aka cold boot and sudden death, plus they now kill ram :rolleyes:

I am very interested in this Sapphire board. Does anyone know whether this board is matx size? I have an Antec Aria collecting dust that I want to install this mobo in. But from glancing at the mobo pics it's not matx size. This mobo has 5 pci expansion slots as opposed to the standard 4 expansion slots of a matx mobo. Any clarification is greatly appreciated. I do hope they make a matx mobo version though.

:D Doesn't really matter to me - since I know the FX-59 will be made for socket 939 again and there will be a X900XT (with what ammount of pipes God only knows) I will keep my board.
