I didn't see that , did you read another review ? Also on a note you don't buy a 600 dollar card to run at 1280 x 1024... you will run this flat out and both X2 cards will spank GT at those resolutions... and drivers are not fully ready : read the note with the new drivers... review will be redone it's still too early for a final verdict...

After awhile, the driver excuses get old.

The card isn't released...

I'll agree with you when they actually start selling them, but don't complain that a pre-released sample has bad drivers. That's the EXACT reason they're NOT selling the card yet. The drivers need work so they've held back releasing the card until they're in working order.

Can't wait to see it OBR!

So, on launch day do we see the clouds part, and rays of hope shine through with new drivers that are going to give a miraculous double digit increase in frames?

I don't think so, but in a few days we'll know for sure. if I'm wrong, I'll gladly admit it.

I feel theres too many people hoping this is the *second coming*

That's a great increase, now let's see how that translates to games

If the card gets a whopping 30 or more FPS at high res I think the excuse is pretty valid... I don't defend the card at all, to me it feels like an 7950X2 revival... but we have to wait till the dust settles and see what the card performs on the 18th... hopefully AMD has got a new catalyst too soon...

go go OBR show us some smoking hot high speeds FPS !! hopefully you can compare it to 8800GT(S) 512 with overclock in SLI on ya brand new Asus 790i...

I am testing on nF790i and will be compared with ...

8800GT SLI
8800 GT
8800 GTS SLI
8800 GTS
8800 U
8800 GTX
R 3870X2

That's what we need!

Be sure to OC them all, no one cares about stock speeds... don't know why this isn't part of every review especially considering the overclocking potential of some of the g92 cards.

Also loocking forward to your test...
Could you also slap that on an old p35 board pls.? Some of us are itching to know if it worcks at its full potential on intel chips ( in a p35 vs. NF790i kind of mudd-fight!)

Actually not because both Nvidia and ATI have a hard time making drivers at this moment. Those problems are related to DX10 flaws and Vista. BTW, ATI claims there drivers are improved allot since June, http://www.elitebastards.com/hanners...83/Slide34.jpg
