Who the heck rated this thread 1 star? It's not that bad is it?

At the very least, we can expect the upcoming chip to be slightly faster than the current HD 4890, but with the added bonus of full DX11 support.
Perhaps the rumours were true that that the first DX11 parts from AMD will be mildly updated silicon, and their true next gen part will be releases some months later.
