On the other hand, zalbard seems to be saying than the chips are the same, or at least reach the same frequencies... what a mess
probably downclocked and undervolted maybe? that could explain and make asus' claims valid, and I believe that he meant the 5850 mem seems to consistently clock to STOCK 5870 mem's speeds and that the 5850 should have just realesed at 4800mhz or something

meh... lol off to the pub it makes more sense there


(ok i got bit about zalberd wrong just read over it, silly if thats true lol)
