Sums up my feelings, exactly.
The performance isn't bad or anything (unlike the R600, for example), but it just isn't the "WOW!" that I was expecting. Perhaps, my expectations were set too high. But with the specs being double of RV790 (with the exception of bandwidth), I was expecting at least 1.9-2x the performance of RV790. Instead the performance is just under that figure, on average. Perhaps it's the early drivers or the memory bandwidth holding it back--But then again, RV770 was never bandwidth limited...
I may perhaps wait for GT300 or Hemlock. This HD4890 is still strong.
