I don't think it will be much faster than HD5770, and at the same time it will consume more power than even HD5850. Thats really dissapointing
Owh yes it will. You dont even know what the impact is of those robs. You dont know what the load is on the 5770 that also has 16 rob's. And offcource AMD whants you to buy the 5850 or 5870 rather then the 5830.

I think the performance will be closer to the HD5850 compared to the 5770. I dont think those ROB's will bottelnek it a lot.
