@ what resolution? 1920x1200 4xAA, 16xAF? It really bothers me when people keep saying this card that card can handle high settings, max setting without giving the specific resolutions and settings.

Yeah 1920x1200 4xAA, 16xAF with an OC HD5870 but don't know the frequencies, the source is Chiphell in fact ...

50% faster then 285?

[gamervivek]

50% faster then 285?

yeah,old news.

Man I really hate when people put words (or opinions) in my mouth (or my post).

I just said that was the score of two 4890, nothing to do with a 5870 score. The picture even shows 2 cards. YOU are the one pointing that AGAIN!

sorry if i offended you,i was just amused at the fact that the exact same thing happened at B3D.

[Tim]

yeah,old news.

I thought it was going to end up faster then the 295, that's where my came from.

295 is 45-50% faster than 285

[gamervivek]

I thought it was going to end up faster then the 295, that's where my came from.

the 50% figure from a gtx285 was with older drivers.So unless they hit a roadblock with optimisations or got too involved with other softwares,it should end up faster than a gtx295 quite easily.

Yeah 1920x1200 4xAA, 16xAF with an OC HD5870 but don't know the frequencies, the source is Chiphell in fact ...

oh, i think 8xxA

[Helloworld_98]

oh, i think 8xxA

with the new AA 'technique' they're using with the 58xx's 4xAA will probably look the same on a 5870 as 8xAA on a GT200.
