    I love it. Tells us a lot about the card, especially with such a nice camera like the one that was used.

Should you cease to benefit the state or even worse become an annoyance or even a hindrance to the state then your life becomes more trouble than it is worth.

    Once the government outlaws your guns your life is forfeit. You're already dead, it's just a question of when they are going to get around to you.

    Yep.
    About the memory, VRM, cooling, voltage points... Very useful!

    Quoting person that quoted other person just to point out it was even more fail is epic / ultimate / infinite fail.

    Sapphire HD 5870 TOXIC 2GB Review

    Clock speeds: 925MHz/5,000MHz


    We take a look at the Sapphire Radeon HD 5870 TOXIC 2GB just before GTX 480 launches. Let's see how much it beats up on all current competition and conjecture whether it stands a good chance against you-know-what....

    The results are not a mistake. A 2GB frame-buffer enables the Radeon HD 5870 GPU to breathe when really taxed. Indeed, it's faster than a Radeon HD 5970 - a card that has to share its frame-buffer between the GPUs.

    A near-30 per cent performance increase over a generic HD 5870 is down to more than just clock-speed, clearly.

    yes, and a 2 GB 5870/4GB 5970 , OC editions will probably be the best cards for 2560/1600

    Didnt the guy who leaked some info about GF100 (some of the info turned out wrong), as an ex-nvidia employee, told something about a new SLI method?

    I guess it's has something to do with power savings, like ULPS on Radeon cards, so on SLI rigs unused GPUs will be almost powered down to save energy when not needed.
