That means jack.. a portuguese store has had a "HD4890" in their website for 3 weeks now.
That could very well be just a fabrication from the store, based on rumours around the web.
Many stores do that to get more hits and pre-orders.
Didn't Salland list HD5870X2 a few months back?Sapphire Radeon HD4890 can be found at Netherlands-based Salland at just under 250 Euro (...)
edit:
Oh yes they did...

You were not supposed to see this.
ATi/AMD has really gotten the smoke and mirrors down pat when it comes to their higher end chips eh?
Conflicting rumors seem to be EVERYWHERE!
Core 2 Duo(Conroe) was based on the Intel Core Duo(Yonah) which was based on the Pentium M(Banias) which was based on the Pentium III(Coppermine).
Core 2 Duo is a Pentium III on meth.
smoke, mirrors and a GODDAMN F***IN PRISM

AMD really fooled everyone with the RV770 specs.
That's part of the reason why there's so much hype about what RV790 will be. An information and disinformation war of this rate is a first among GPU announcements, that's for sure.
8 pin my arse.
http://itbbs.pconline.com.cn/diy/9938021.html
Idle Clockspeed: 240Mhz.
Interesting. GPU-Z doesn't show much, sadly.
so its basically an overclocked hd4870 with better idle consumption?
looks ok, but not at a 250€ price point (more like 200€); should beat gtx260 216sp
interesting, that gpu-z cant read out memory bandwidth and size correctly...
(and someone is being pretty informative.... but as long as its a mass production card he shouldnt get caught^^)

GPU-z is nothing more than a datatbase, for the most part, only a few things are actually collected from the hardware/software.
Which means we still don't know exactly what RV790 is...

but shouldnt it at least read out the bandwidth correctly, the card seems very similar to hd4870
the chip information themselves are of course stored in database and are read through device id

How is it suppose to know the size of the interface?

Pictures of the HD 4890 (original thread here)
What we know so far:
1- Same PCB (or at least very similar) as HD4870;
2- 2*6 pin connector;
3- 240Mhz (!!!) idle speed (I guess the rumours about the PowerPlay revision were true)
4- Same cooler
5- ATI OC Utility shows a max overclock of 1Ghz;
6- It's called 4890 and not 49xx.
Performance figures and design changes are only guesses right now.
And here's the first boxart:
I found it in Fudzilla. I don't know where they got it, though.
I'm doing it... 3 x voltmodded watercooled 4890's @ 1100mhz core clock here I comethese things are gonna be BEASTs
Not the same cooler, it is an updated cooler.What we know so far:

Suppose to be a 3 heatpipe HS vs the 2 heatpipe heatsink of 4870.

From what I could see, the idle temp was 59°C at 24% fan speed. What's the 4870 idle temp at that fan speed anyone? Should be an indicator of how much better the powerplay is working.
so same pcb or similar? will be waterblocks from 4870's fit here?
and still no any info abot x2

I can see 16 ramdacs on this 4890 which means 4870 FC is a nogo....so same pcb or similar? will be waterblocks from 4870's fit here?
and still no any info abot x2
I am utterly horrified to see the memory is still not affected by Powerplay!
It's just useless to slow down the GPU speed as memory is the idle powerhog on these cards.
I don't think you realise "RAMDAC" has absolutely nothing to do with the memory you see on a video card.
And, there's only 8 GDDR5 chips on those cards...

felt like i barely got my 512 4870s... lol now i want this
ugh yes sorry, It just seems more distinguished in that pic than the 4870... it is the same.
that said I have just compared and the mem/gpu area is the same. but the PWM area is vastly different.

For the ATI Guru's: Will the HD4890 X2 follow the single GPU sister launch on April too?
