ATI Radeon HD 4000 Series discussion

[mascaras]

Computex 2008 Radeon HD 4850, HD 4870 perform better than 8800GT and 9800GTX performance comparison
In mid June, AMD will launch another new series of graphics cards. These new series HD 4800 series will have more muscle to challenge the NVIDIA GeForce cards.

It is said that the HD 4850 is 20% faster than the 8800GT and HD 4870 is 20% faster than the 9800GTX.

As we all know, GeForce 9800GTX is only 10% faster than the 8800GT. We are able to get a clearer picture of the performance of these 4 cards as shown in the diagram below.

In 3DMARK06, Radeon HD 4870 will be 32% faster than 8800GT, 22% faster than 9800GTX and 12% faster than 4850.

AS for 4850, it will be 20% faster than 8800GT and 10% faster than the 9800GTX.

That is not FPS, its performance increase over 8800Gt as the base card.

Idiots at OCW could've just as easily told us what the actual 3dMark 06 would be.

For example, if that chart is to be believed, if the 8800GT scores 11.5k with an Intel Quad, then:

The 9800GTX would score 12.7k
The 4850 would score 13.8k
The 4870 would score 15.2k

That may be a tad unrealistic. (for a $225 card to beat the 9800GTX. I mean, even if the 4870 loses to the GT200, if the 4850 can wrestle out the 9800 that would still be a crowing achievement, which ATi isn't known for).
