AMD Cayman info (or rumor)

[Nintendork]

HD9000 will come with a Vegeta pic.

HD9000 Zarbon Edition

[Chickenfeed]

The HD9000 series will likely require 1.21 gigawatts to render Crysis 2 at 80 fps... not before taking us back into the 3DFX days ( bad Back to the Future reference )

The bandwidth on that faked screen does look a tad low, that is unless AMD have sacrificed memory bandwidth in favor of capacity. Still countless gigabytes rendering terabytes of data for >$9000 while inducing orgasm... sounds like a good buy

here, I cut out the relevant parts for you guys

[Lanek]

I would be very happy if Antilles is 30% faster than my HD 5970, probably not to easy to achieve on reference card because of the PCI-e spec. Anyway 30% plus the extra 2GB GDDR5 and at least 2x better tessellation would be nice upgrade.



So maybe Charlie was talking about Switzerland when he predicted the paper-launch. j/k

Who know, he come maybe see the mountain here ....

Naa real problem is we are surely allways the last country to get the hardware after been released, it look like they serve first UK, germany, and France... there's a real monopole from a shop who have buy all the other little shop here, addition to this if they want clear their 480 stock... 580 avaibility here is close to zero. ( with luck, next week )

It look like that for all models, all shops. ( look the date...8.12 ..)

[kuroikenshi]

well well well...

same thing in Netherlands and Belgium, no cards to find and if one enters its few of a certain brand, then wait, then another brand.... expected delivery etc

not that I would buy any but it isn't really mass available either.

[ajaidev]

Most models in India are not in stock the ones that are have a outrageous price tag, it does not matter to me i am waiting for the 6900 series to com along where the hell are you guys

[StimulatedBoy]

Just completed a search here in the Communist Republic of Norway and none of the 3 largest e-tailors have any samples in stock. Availability is more or less expected to be 1. January 2011. One shop, my favourite “on the corner” off course, has 3 samples in stock...

communist norway ??? LOL wat :O

[Mechanical Man]

communist norway ??? LOL wat :O

Its sarcastic joke. Same as some ppl say "USA = United Sosialist state of America" based on amount of goverment nursing you.

[tbone8ty]

the gtx580 r being held up at the TSA, they have to inspect its "vapor" chamber lol

[Florinmocanu]

In Romania, in my favourite shops, there is zero availability for the GTX 580, it kind of goes in line with what happens in other countries as well.

[Manicdan]

i think the caymen info/rumor thread needs less info about the 580 in it.

[Dimitriman]

Because fanboys can't bash AMD anymore

[zerazax]

Imagine this though... had that Polish site not accidentally leaked those slides, we'd have no concrete info and the cards are only 2-3 weeks out

Yeah, last few years AMD has been tighter than a anal virgin, you have to admire that consistency.

That's just a very weird thing to say.

[Mechanical Man]

That's just a very weird thing to say.

Why would it be? From someones view it might be more socialist than other ones view.. Its pretty subjective thing. For example. For someone amount of socialism in Finland meas almost communist, then for other it means almost other end.

[marten_larsson]

communist norway ??? LOL wat :O

Actually, a few years ago the Swedish minister of finance said to a reporter when he thought the cameras where switched off that "Norway is the last communist country". This was after returning from Norway after discussing the merge of the Swedish telephone operator Telia (former owned by government, now 49,9% sold out) and the Norwegian counter part Telenor. Needless to say, the deal went the ways of Dodos and Telenor instead bought an ISP to enter the Swedish telecom market.

[SpuTnicK]

PEOPLE! What are you talking about!
We suppose to discuss Cayman cards not some BS about problems in Scandinavia or elsewhere!
