ATI Radeon HD5830

[Mungri]

Its even more interesting to read that the 5830 still performs worse than a 4890 for over £200??? How does that happen when the 5830 is a little higher specified?

I feel sorry for anyone that buys one of these because they wanted something better than a 5770. Dont do it and just pay the extra for a 5850 or xfire 5770.

At its current asking price, it really should have been 32 ROPs and 1280 shaders, 256 bit, and then if possible, a 5790 could have been 1120 shaders, 16 ROPs, 128 bit to perfectly fill the gap between 5770 and 5850.
