thisHD4890 is in my hands ...NOW and perf is higher only 10 percents above HD4870 1GB! Great improvement Great AMD! GTX 260 216 still better!Originally Posted by LordEC911
They cannot create a shader core with 1000SPs. It is 960 or 1040SPs.
Look who showed up to crap on the thread...

Coming from someone who couldn't even figure he was using faulty ram sticks and made the definitive statement that retail C2D were crappy ocers, i'll take your post with a grain of salt

Totally unacceptable....insulting other members is not allowed here at all.
The rest of the post is just rude anyway.
This deserves a short vacation, IMO.
No need for that kind of language
First of all,what card exactly you have,regular 4890 or 4890 OC edition? Second,what drivers are you using with it?
We have been down this road with you in the past OBR,I hope we don't get to the same results as before....
Attacking back?Coming from someone who couldn't even figure he was using faulty ram sticks and made the definitive statement that retail C2D were crappy ocers, i'll take your post with a grain of salt
It's just a graphics card guys
I'm not attacking him but what he posted, which he didn't back up with any facts whatsoever, in a way he's been doing much in the past and as i pointed out he would even blame a product for his own mistakes. I have Intel, AMD, ATI and Nvidia in this room right now and honestly think they both make good and poor products at times.Attacking back?

lol @ OBRy as always, aren't you.
Just as uncalled for as his post...lol @ OBR
I think it's only fair that equally uncalled for = equal vacation.
I really hope all this insulting and attacking and underhanded crap stops....
If it doesn't, we may have no one left to post in News
I'd certainly stop the flaming...Maybe the whole news section itself needs to take a vacation?I really hope all this insulting and attacking and underhanded crap stops....
If it doesn't, we may have no one left to post in News
Fold for XS!
You know you want to
All he did was observe that OBR was once again being cantankerous.Just as uncalled for as his post...
I think it's only fair that equally uncalled for = equal vacation.
Movieman has stated that Mods on this site don't just ban people for trivial reasons, I knew he was wrong from my own dealings with some of the Mods here and you have proven it now with Hornet.
A very poor effort on your part.
Agree. You can ban 90% of this section of you follow that path.
Friends shouldn't let friends use Windows 7 until Microsoft fixes Windows Explorer (link)
That is nothing that should be discussed in public. If you have a problem with him, send him a PN. If you still can't agree with him, go to the next higher level and so on.
Feel free to delete this post.
Notice any grammar or spelling mistakes? Feel free to correct me! Thanks
Do you honestly believe that's for the best of this forum?Just as uncalled for as his post...

I've been posting on internet forums for almost 8 years now. I know for a fact that over-tightening of moderation actions is never good for the forum itself.
Just my thoughts.
Because I would like the topic of this thread to return to constructive discussion of the upcoming HD4890 launch*, you have PMs
They're friendly, no worries, you're not in trouble or anything
* if there is no more quality discussion to be had, then the thread can fade away to the back pages just fine then
Did you know? The people that work @ ATi HQ also live in the same area!! OMG!!!
Also, these people have something called FRIENDS!Although that may have been a little blunt, that is what I am thinking.
I pity you.
Quite frankly, I drop my case, as you have finally given some reason. The quality of which I am not going to argue, as this is what turned this thread into a dump.
STOP.
This thread is not a place to express your, in this case, distaste of another member. If you have specific grievances, you take that up with a Mod in private, not in public.

Back on the topic of the 4890.
Thank you for pointing this out. I didn't know this. I now agree that it is just about certain to be 55nm.
I wonder if this is being produced on a tweaked 55nm node? Or has that been put to rest as well?

Hmm...
RV670 = 55 GT (Overclocks relatively well, right?)
RV770 = 55 GP (TSMC Vanilla Performance process, doesn't seem to OC that far compared to 670 speeds)
GT200b = 55 GT (More expansive than GP, but supposedly better characteristics)
RV790 is likely 55GT.
TSMC 40nm be Damned
We should be having Rv740 by now
No one has been able to scale well once they get into the upper range.
The radeons 4xxx are already highly clocked. I would not expect a 20 percent increase in performance.
I can imagine if driver performance can be brought up, I can see 20% increase in April. But since this driver improvement is extendable to the 4870. It makes the 4890 a totally unneeded product. Especially since it sounds like it will be sold for 20 percent more money. I doubt these will come with 1gb of ddr5 ram at the predict price.
Off topic but..... putting signs like banana's where the letters are for a curse is still swearing(which is far more offensive than anything in OBR post) and far more snarky. If its directed at anyone, this is still a personal attack.

Crunching for Comrades and the Common good of the People.
That settles it, GT212 for me then.

If all people would share opinions in an objective manner, the world would be a friendlier place
Xbit also thought that RV770 had 480SPs.

Generally I would not trust anyone besides 1) CJ from Beyond3D, 2)nApoleon from Chiphell.
Digitimes thinks both RV740 and RV790 are 40nm parts... :
TSMC sees weak 40nm orders
Latest news
Monica Chen, Taipei; Joseph Tsai, DIGITIMES [Wednesday 18 February 2009]
Despite the successful ramp of the 40nm node, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) has secured fewer orders from AMD and Nvidia than originally expected, according to market sources.
Compared to initial orders placed by the two graphics chipmakers for every new process generation in the past, orders for the 40nm segment have been scaled down by 30-40%.
AMD and Nvidia have both adopted a cautious approach to upcoming 40nm graphics chips due to economic uncertainties.
AMD's 40nm mid-range RV740 and high-end RV790 GPUs will both be launched in April this year, while Nvidia will launch its first 40nm GPU, GT212 in the second quarter of 2009.
AMD and Nvidia both declined the opportunity to respond to this report saying they cannot comment on unannounced products.
