nope that's an ATX but ATI is so confused they can't even turn it the right way

[zerazax]

They look huge but not much larger than an 8800Ultra i think

[DangeR!]

LOL nice mod dude... a little to much thermal paste though

Those Xfire results are good, better than the GT Sli... Wonder if it will beat them in proper games though, hope so .

lol i like it. cant wait for some tests of this

[Unbornchild]

Yes, i too. But i expect the exact same result as 2 seperate 3870's in crossfire.

lets guess... if 1 3870 is $219 then this will be less than 2 since there is less ram and 1 pcb. think $350?

[Unbornchild]

"Less ram"??? This will have 2 x 512MB, the same as 2 x 3870's...

Oops I missed that. These are going to be very cheap I think still.

AMD: Upcoming GPU will be faster than 8800 GTX-Ultra by 15%

'In the Radeon HD 3800 presentation AMD gave us, there was a very interesting slide in the end called 'And there's more...'. According to that specific slide, AMD hints that their upcoming high-end GPU will be faster than Nvidia’s GeForce 8800 GTX-Ultra by 15%. The same slide also suggests a price tag of $399-499 USD and availability somewhere around January (New Year). According to the rumors around, AMD is going to name that product, as the Radeon HD 3870 X 2; but only time will tell. Anyway, since the NDA of the Radeon HD 3800 series has been expired, I have attached a screenshot from the presentation above.'

i thought there was no pron aloud on the forums

I was really hoping they'd go for a MCM :/ imho the PCB is way to big.

but this way it's cheaper as they don't need to order any special GPUs. just popp in some RV670 and here ya go, R680.

I dont care if 2x 3870 X2 wont run om my Gigabyte X38-DQ6.... Then ill just buy some AMD hardware and get it ON!....

Starting to cry when i saw this :')....

All these years standing up for ATI seems realy to pay off... cant whait to punch off Crysis @ Xtreme HIGH settings witht his. "BIG CRY :')"

[aiya]

is it safe to say that it will work in motherboards with a single pci-e x16 slot?

the article doesn't mention anything about it but 790 boards.

[FischOderAal]

I haven't followed the 2600 X2 but at first it worked on non CrossFire Mainboards as well. if this wasn't a mistake by amd why shouldn't it work with this one as well?
