Looks like the first rumours were true...we'll see the 850 and 950 clock versions at $199 and $299.
I'm still waiting for the ace in the hole but have a feeling ATI may have us wait a tad longer to show that.

not in april for sure, june/july at the earliest IMO.Originally Posted by Jor3lBR
the 4890x2 when it comes will not be a friend of the average user... it will be expensive and it will be the 295 killer for benches alone.
ATI Radeon HD4890 1GB GDDR5
Source: TechpowerupHere's something fresh from Asia, with love. Popular Chinese site Coolaler is once more first to show pics from an yet unreleased product - the next generation ATI Radeon HD4890 video card. The card below is equipped with single RV790 GPU clocked at 850 MHz and 1 GB of GDDR5 memory clocked at 3900 MHz. It has full DirectX 10.1 support and is CrossFireX ready. Apart from that, all other distinctive features can be seen from the pictures. The Radeon HD4890 is set to be released after April 6th of this year.
just did some more side by side comparison and the gpu area of the 4890 looks markedly different than the 4870....
oh no, so sad
if so what to choose for watercooling - wait for july or buy two 4970 using two waterblocks?
Intel Xeon W3520 4200MHz HT
Foxconn Bloodrage

Thanks for the reply Sniipe, you bet the 4890x2 will be a monster just judging by the 4890x1 power requirements.
I will keep my old faithful 4850 and wait till July then.

I cant say for sure, but if it beats the 295 (which it will) it will be priced accordinglyUnited States pricetag of $600 or higher
Yep it looks VERY different. The shader configuration is different
Should I sell my GTX280 on April 5th?
If anticipating for DX11 cards, yes!Should I sell my GTX280 on April 5th?
All systems sold. Will be back after Sandy Bridge!
Will there be two different versions of 4890x2?
AS in OC and Vanilla just like with 4890.

4890x2 +4890 is my goal for tri fire ( i dont wanna pay extra money for a nf200 chip so i can get x16 x16 x16 lanes)
the looked priced very nicely

All depends on whether you wanna go xtreme OCs without the need for xtreme kewling.
If 1Ghz with adequate water is doable, it's really a nice achievement. I can see quite some people going for it here.
I hope not as that will most likely mean more waiting still for the OC version.
Sapphire! just bring out a maxed out 4890X2 4GB card & im happy

You were not supposed to see this.
if send someone these coolalers drivers, i can test it and post results ...!
Hmmm...
Have I heard that before?
You were not supposed to see this.
Check the pin configs for on the back of the 4870 (which lineup with how the ALUs are arranged on the RV770) with the 4890. The arrangement is definitely different, though it is blurry
Déjà vu.
Didn't see this posted yet:
HD4890 listed in geizhals (euro pricewatch).
zerazax,
Errr...
You talking about that square'ish area of tiny SMD caps? They are so not related to the arrangement of the ALUs.
They are vDD/ground pads. The only thing it might mean, is the chip would consume less current as there's fewer power pads on the chip carrier.

I love how people speculate based on nothing.Good one!
Thanks largon, that makes a bit more sense but either way, they changed the GPU in one way or another
As for HKPolice, you could've posted like largon and reasoned it, but instead
I'm not here to start a flame war, but if you ever wondered a lot of people dont take your rumors seriously in these threads, true or not, compared to people like w0mbat and other members, well your attitude certainly is one of them
I'm just a noob so.. I'll let the pros do the talking. Here's some bigger pictures for comparisons. Found it posted on my local forum.

Wouldn't it be a good idea to put the photos up on the first post?
