ATi 4870X2(R700) PCB Debut

[F.stop]

I wonder when we are going to see the 1st review of this puppy.
Must admit it is seriously making me think before putting down my cash on either a 2x HD4870 1GB setup or a GT280GTX. (the cheaper option), am hoping that this is cheeper than 2 x HD4870 1GB cards AND packs more of a punch.

exactly what im thinking
leaves the door open for quad cf.

According to Fudzilla they have received confirmation that it will be 2GB and codenamed spartan with an availability date of end of August (just in time for me b'day!).

Makedon and Trojan are code names that have been known for a while, I guess Spartan fits into the code name scheme.

More sites than fudzilla are claiming 2GB so it might just be correct.
