Holy crappola, it's doing 1000/1000 on air

R600 can't walk on water but it sure can fly and with the 357€ that has been seen on some site already to my surprise i am even considering crossfire in a not so distant future, DAAMIT

It's better to invest in watercooling than to invest in crossfire for now...OR

If you are bent on buying two cards, wait for the XL...two of those will be more nominal with similar performance.

It will be a little more than 320mb price range but still retain the 512mb gddr3 of the XT.

Perkam dude, i just can't pass on the 2900XT, it's gonna be cheaper than what i paid for a 1800XL, perform like a champ and OC like crazy (if retail is the same than press samples). Too sweet a deal

You can say that again... For what you get its an incredible price.

what's the difference between GPU TDP and Board TDP ?


so the R600's(GDDR3) power consumption is 160 or 225 ??


and G80's Board TDP is 225W too , no ?
