Except that months ago he still knew where his company was heading . Simple fact of the matter is that a company CEO selling off that kind of volume of stock usually isn't a good sign.
I understood, but mu question was...if 5870 is more efficient than the current genereation, how could be that the double chip uses more power instead??Or fudzilla is joking as always (that could really be), or they made a crappy power regulation that supplies the card...I mean...I don't know
