Would you all relax and stop calling this card a disappointment, I have the card and its the fastest thing ive ever seen, S*it, what did you expect, 5x the speed of a 9800gtx, not gonna happen, have you not learned to not look at 3dmark numbers, wow, im trying to hold myself back but reading these comments is getting on my nerves, a 2900xt beats an 8800gtx in 3dmark, does it mean its a better card? NO! this is the fastest single chip ever made period, its not going to be cheap, its not going to be low power, its not going to be little heat, its the POWER HOUSE, not the power saver.......................one word for this card FAST!!!!!!!!!!! now relax and wait for the release date.
