With those pics of the 59xx, does anyone know if the Arctic Cooling Accelero 4870X2 cooler will fit on the 59xx card ?

I get the feeling the PWM area is as slack as it is on the 5870. Tons of empty space.
If the design is opened up to 3rd-party PCB design, I reckon an inch could be taken off the PCB.
Cores are close together... no PLX?

ther is chip between two gpus so yes there is plx and i am not excited about this card its just cf sad thing is that ati didn't add a thing to there multi gpu purpose which is sadly there future according to em
I notice that the guy claims that this is the dual 5870 version. But the GPU clock is only 725Mhz. If this is correct, then they really had some problems with the powerdraw and/or heat of the card.
That was because x1800 was delayed due to the bad 90nm libraries, x1900 was still on schedule and came out when expected.Hmmm Didn't ATi back in the day release the X1900 series right on the back of the X1800 series?..... just a thought

Yeah it appears that way, but could be due to a number of things. Engineering sample, test version, test bios, gpu-z db error, low clocks, samples, - could even be an ES with 1600 shaders per core clocked at 5850 speeds. Or it could actually be 1600sp @ 5850 speeds in the final shipping product, however I doubt it. Considering the 5870 runs cooler and actually loads with equal or less power than a 4870, i see no problem with equal (or even higher as rumored) clocks on the dual version since the 3870x2 and 4870x2 clocks match those of their single gpu counterparts.

only 1gb ram?
god damit where are my 2gb cards....
Due to games only being console ports we don't really need more than one GPU anyway and spending money on r&d to get rid of the plx chip just isn't worth it if the only people benefitting from it are those running one or more 30" screens.
Manufacturers love launching new stuff for christmas, also it would fit in nicely with the time it will take the partners to release custom versions, while there is nothing announced yet it's pretty safe to assume that more versions will appear for christmas.only 1gb ram?
god damit where are my 2gb cards....
i still dont see any reason to upgrade my ultraclocked 8800gt :P
as long as it runs Crysis at 1680x1050 ultra high at 23 fps average im happy XD [dont mind the sig its outdated i volt modded my gpu :P]
ill probably wait for the next gen when crysis 2 is out
btw 25 fps is playable for me with no jams

1st learn to spell mediocre,
2nd, that link doesn't work :P
That is the 2gb card. 1gb per GPU. If you select the next GPU you will see another 1gb. Does the same thing on my 3870X2 and shows 512mb per GPU.only 1gb ram?

i think he meant the 2GB per GPU card.
2gb per gpu will keep min close to avg.
facts and data are not needed for this statement of course2gb per gpu will keep min close to avg.
Belgium's #1 Hardware Review Site and OC-Team!
Of course per gpu, it doesn't matter that the X2 has 2gb as whole when theres only 1gb per gpu.i think he meant the 2GB per GPU card.
QFT.
Just recently we had a news article whose parts were copied verbatim by Hilbert without giving a source. And I mean word for word.
This happens all the time in the industry. If the issue is serious enough people whose material has been copied are able to lodge a complaint with the site's host. However, since it pretty much happens on a regular basis with some sites, many just shrug and go on with their lives.

so the x2 is like 2 crippled 5870s? whats up with the low core speed, power or temp issue I wonder
maybe both,but(from what i'v read) it will be cheaper then two 5870's so it will be slower by a tad......still it will be fast
_________________
makes us wonder if the 5850x2 is going to be very close in performance, or if they will downclock that too, but for no reason
I wonder are we sure that GPU-Z screen shot is just of the 59??/5850x2 the core speed and the memory speed the same as the single 5850 725/1000. Plus there are 2 Device ID numbers GPU-Z shows the 689C who's to know if not the 689D will be the 59??/5870x2 with 850/1200. IMO this is of the 5850x2 well I hope and yeah also hope for 2g pre-gpu on the 689D.
This...
ID doesn't show which model, maybe the 5950 will have 1600 shaders per core. And that would be fantastic

Take this results carefully...
Looks like 5870x2 is being delayed not just because of heat and power consumption, but mostly cause CF implementation in drivers is still pretty terrible.
Also "The card itself is 13.5 inches long, and has problems fitting even a full sized tower case like the Antec 1200".
It looks great, though!
