to the guys upgrade form 8800gtx cards. your not going to see much of an increase going to HD4870. yes there will be some but 30% is not that noticeable (all depends on game). you would notice a large increase going to a GTX 280 however. to bad it costs more than most people want to spend.
yup same here, its a shame that R700 come so late... if its CF on board using afr -> no thx

And yeah...makes Intel's 80-core raytracer look a wee bit foolish, in retrospect, eh?
ble atis card also only has 160cores, 800 is only marketing.
