The 4870 is not twice as fast as the 3870 so the 4870X2 will definitely not be twice as fast as a 3870X2.
In fact, early drivers for the 4870X2 (which is July we're talking about btw) will most likely have minor scaling issues just as the 3870X2 did, it will have a smaller performance delta than the 4870 vs the 3870.
The 4870 AT MOST (with huge amounts of wishful thinking) will only be about 50% faster than the 3870 in games and real world applications. It will be a lot faster in benchmarks but I don't "play" benchies,![]()
