Thank you for the wonderfully laid out post mass. It'd be interesting to know how much power you're sucking running that beast . Or should I say those beasts.

Not sure about the looks but it sounds sexy.

Well correct me if I'm wrong:

1. Still slower than the 5970
2. Still has high power consumption
3. An overclocked gtx480 can match its performance .. across the board

This is just like the...

You have been blessed with beautiful kids IFMU. Don't let them go bad :p:

I'd put water in the rad, close all openings then freeze it.

If they had called it GTX450 it might have made sense... This leaves me with only one explanation: Nvidia wants to capitalize on the success of the 460 and intentionally deceive users into thinking...

"To be content with what you have is to be happy. To be content with what you know is ignorance. To be unhappy and ignorant is stupidity. "

AMD isn't involved at this stage. Motherboard manufacturers, in my opinion, are cheaping out in the construction of AMD boards. Yeah lots of AMD boards have lots of nice features and there are high...

You are way too optimistic.

This is simple. Why are Intel motherboards 2-3x more expensive than AMD boards? Because people are willing to pay. With AMD, the money isn't in the midrange boards. Let's be frank: you don't build an...

lol..

Bad idea...

You do realize prices go up holiday season.. I'd wait until boxing day :)

fo shizzle mai nizzle.

:hammer:

Thanks for sharing results Micutzu

DilTech might have a point in that the only great difference between this and the competition is power consumption.

It's blah for the XS crowd, but AMD needed a 460gtx contender. Bart isn't a big...

The 6870 is a monster card. It's like a 5770 - crap + awesomeness.

That's.. neck-breaking speed.

Me want :yepp:

There are two sides to the statement: a- it is ok for AMD's ATI division to break even now, their goals are bigger than just right now. b- imagine what would happen if AMD said ATI is highly...

ATI WILL NOT price the 6870 at $200. No. Way. Only in our dreams.

6850, yes. My guess is its going to be at $250 since it should be faster than the gtx460.

Those vantage numbers look close to predictions. If we are talking 5770 price point for the 6870 .. this is going to rock everyone's socks :banana: :banana: :banana:

Back to earth now, the 6850...

:rofl:

It's in AMD's favour to not be profitable from ATI at this point. AMD is willing to spend a lot more money investing in GPUs to build on their current success. Their CPU division is no...

Can you check smart status on all your hdds?

It's definitely harddrive related. If the hdds aren't at fault it's probably the drivers.

I'd get one attach a remote receiver to it and strap my cat in. He'd have lots of fun visiting the neighbours!

Nvidia ships all the parts to AIBs. Some make their own stickers and apply it to their cards.

Still, no evidence of this yet its all just talk.

:rofl::rofl:

Thanks for the breakdown. Not including time spent.. :)
