I can't wait for good drivers... It looks very promising In my opinion

my driver is old old driver, should get a new driver tomorrow or monday

**Xope_Poquar** · 05-04-2007, 11:51 PM

I thought ATI wasn't going to have a card to compete with the 8800GTX...

Can't wait to see some scores with new driver. We will be able to compare scores side by side and see how driver is maturing

.

Ati Soft Eng have a lot of room for improvement in their driver for R600

Denny can you tell if this 1GB GDDR4 card is going on sale or it is another eng. sample?

PS. Bring more results PLZ! ShaderMark by any chance?

for you!

will someone with a card please tell us if the mounting pattern is going to work with waterblocks currently on the market??? they look very similar but without having one it is impossible to know for sure.

thanks for the info denny and hope the new driver brings even better results.you know we appreciate your efforts and sharing your results with us. keep up the good work.

Mountings are the same as X1900/1950.

Probably not as pcb design differs.

**sky** · 05-05-2007, 03:47 AM

yea that was what i was dreading. damn. hm core only cooling. doh. anyone know what kinda heat gddr4 puts out? whether its necessary to really cool it or whether stick on ramsinks will do the trick?

**VictorWang** · 05-05-2007, 04:54 AM

8.37.4, packing date=4.19
driver improved some performance.
but ... even with 8.36.1 512m ddr3, 743/828.
cpu = 400*9 = 3.6G
05/06 is higher than urs @.@

**SIOUX** · 05-05-2007, 05:17 AM

Can you run a 3d01 nature denny?

**Gambit_2K** · 05-05-2007, 05:53 AM

Can anyone with an XT give us some hints to the temperature of the cards? Hotter or colder then say a X1950XTX @ stock under idle and load?

good on yer denny nice to see somebody posting some 2900xt scores

re above on his control panel denny has the idle temperature showing which is 71 degrees so it seems as these bare going to be toasty little suckers

**Mike EFix** · 05-05-2007, 06:15 AM

12,200 in '06 ? Not too shabby. I wonder what the GTX is scoring in your rig

I told him

**mascaras** · 05-05-2007, 07:19 AM

with 8.37 driver on windows XP you can get +- that 2k6 score with a simple C2D 2mb cache @ 3Ghz and a X2900XT 512mb default

regards

That might only be telling that ATi has optimised heavily 3dmark and nothing else, so how about real games? There's already been too much new drivers which improve only 3dmark-performance...

hm, any word on whether old full cover blocks will work too (if possible, i mean its not giving out tech spechs or anything)? not bothering about the mosfets, just the ram. see quote on ek x18/1900 waterblocks.

Since you don't have a card, or even a friend with a card in hands, and there are no public REAL reviews with game benchmarks, how can you say that ?

Just wait some more days

I was referring to past driver trends - not exclusively on R600.
