    Maybe we should just ask the guy posting these results to show us the manual.

    I never compared SLI to Crossfire its the same thing and it is not the issue here.
    Hey i never said it is not fastest graphic card hell ya its fastest card but from different segment . "Most users" agree single GPU card is alot less of a hassle. And lets not start pulling random % out of our asses.
    You need to read some reviews your self , they explain how one Graphic Card differs from another. Clearly not everyone is blind and know about MGPU issues and SGPU advantages.
    So you can make a distinction between two separate cards but not one with two or one GPU Single GPU card has as much advantage as single graphics card with MGPU over two separate ones.

    So now we went from "Graphic Card" discussions to company strategies speaking of witch "AMD promotes Cayman as the new R300 " here is your reason for AMD bashing. Why would you be positive and praise them for being so conservative.
    Of course you can compare the cards, most review do without any special segment, maybe Google can help. The single most important reason to use 2 GPU is to have fastest Graphic Card.

    Yes there is a HUGE advantage to have 2 GPU on one card instead having to buy two cards. Here are just few, less power consumption, less heat, some mobos can't run 2 cards, even on my not exactly cheap mobo I would have to run them site by site, again more heat. The most important is the cost since the dual GPU cards cost less than 2 cards.

    The bottom line is, selective post replying always goes on with never ending arguments. Maybe you should go read one more time here.
    Here is your reply to my post, there sure was not need for it
    My post was about "why all the negatives, gloom and doom" about AMD in this thread.
    I only made that post after so many repeating post about AMD sinking ship and about the big trouble AMD is in because of Cayman.
    Instead of replying to all the negative post and sometime out right troolls I responded with a single post trying to point out few positives not exclusively talking about HD 5970. Is that so bad in AMD thread? Do you really thing it is trolling? Do you know what trolling is?

    You decided to ignore all and make selective reply going on with even more negatives. I can safely bet that most people using the HD 5970 wont agree with you, but you who doesn't have any knows better.

    The ONLY way to have the most powerful graphic and gaming solution is either with dual card or multi card SLI or Crossfire, for me single card is better way.
    I don't want to go on about this any more lets just say we disagree but next time please read and don't make selective personal attack post, there sure was not need for it. My last post on the subject. You want to talk more take it PM.

    Increases the max voltage voltage by ~20%, no cold bug, etc.
    Max board power is 250w without hardmodding which seems like a few have already done.

    Tesselation is fixed.
    within 5% of 5970.
    question is, are that also in games, if so, then it trade blows with 580.
    if not, well...it dosnt look good for amd.
    perception rules.

    or the guy is hired by Nvidia to do dmg to amd.
    happens.

    Another thing I find funny is AMD/Intel would snipe any of our Moms on a grocery run if it meant good quarterly results, and you are forever whining about what feser did?

    I noticed some people believe Cayman is going to really bad in synthetics benchmark but much better in games.

    The new 3DMARK11 is probably going to be used most often.
    Here is the "Ducati750ss" HD 6970 3DMARK11 Extreme 1920x1080 bench "score X1776 points" on AMD platform probably not with the latest driver.

    On Xbit benchmarks the GTX 580 "scored 1947 points"

    That makes the HD 6970 -8.78% slower than GTX 580 in this synthetic bench.

    Maybe better driver and same platform can at least narrow that difference, anyway the best is to wait for the real reviews from unbiased reviewers, coming soon.

    Um...Your comparing
    1920x1200 6900 score
    to
    1920x1080 GTX580 score

    The difference is about 10% more pixels for 1920x1200.

    Sorry and thanks, it was my typing error, ducati used the same 1920x1980 resolution

    I just corrected it.
