AMD Cayman info (or rumor)

[LightSpeed]

I ask the same, since if we are going for the only metric we can extrapolate quickly, the Flops, its nowehere near 50%.. From 2.7 Teraflops to 3.0 Teraflops is only 11%....

I know but the thing is that the Tglops will be utilised much more efficiently due to 4D + other improvements. Hence comparing Tflops is simply not right in this case

so no new info; we already had the 1920SP rumor a month ago....

6970 is going to be at least 50% faster than 6870 or there would be no room for 6950.

480x4 vs. 320x5 SPs + 2times higher tesselation performance + more vram support the 50% claim + higher clockspeeds (6990 clock speeds are the same as 5970 at the same board power, but 6970 TDP is supposed to be higher than 5870 TDP so it should have higher stock clocks)

looks like a winner, but still 3 weeks until release....
