    And then:
    * Switch ******..dates.
    * Switch ****** default.

    Which words fit and end with "dates"?
    Switch for automatic driver updates?
    Switch for automatic BIOS updates?

    Sounds unlikely. But updates seems to be our best guess.

    Radeon HD 6970 runs at 880MHz

    1536 ALU stream processors

    We got some official date about Radeon HD 6970 card codenamed Cayman XT. The card runs at 880MHz and the card has the memory that runs at quite impressive 5.5Gbps. The memory of choice is GDDR5 in 256 bit flavour and the card has the whole 2GB of it.

    The card has 96 texture units, as well as 24 SIMD and 1536 ALU streaming processors. It has 32 ROPs and 128 Z stencils.

    Cayman Radeon HD 6970 uses VLIW4 Shader Architecture something that Bobo explain in details here. We can confirm this story today.
    Total compute power of Cayman in this version is 2.7 TeraFlops under IEEE754-SP standard and 675 GigaFlops with IEEE754-DP standard.

    It is unknown if the card is slower of faster than the GTX 580 but this given presentation didn't really looked into it. The indication is that Cayman wont be faster than GF110 products, but in this presentation, ATI didn't showed any Radeon HD 6970 performance data.

    True or False?

    Not false, Fuad conveniently leaves out the low TDP at which this is achieved, let's say it's not even close to the 300W the NV propaganda machine promoted.

    It looks like Nvidia will get to keep the single gpu performance crown let's hope at least it manages to edge out the GTX 570

    IF this is 6870 and not 6850 then it won't compete with GTX 580.
    But on the other side, that means that AMD still follows their strategy with upper mid GPUs that isn't to big, but earns them money. Which I guess is good news, AMD need more money, both from GPUs and CPUs.

    It's also quite funny that he says the information is OFFICIAL. Why don't he post the source then since it should be an AMD representative..

    AMD's strategy is to stay behind Nvidia in single GPU setups and go ahead of them with Dual GPU cards. Why it works is that AMD can create smaller and more efficient chips and stack two of those on a single PCB relatively easily.

    Smaller is better. Defect rate increases to the square of the die size, so they need to balance on the sweet spot and will probably aim rather lower than higher performance, if it just means smaller die.

    Though, < 1600 SPs sounds very surprising for a HD6970. Then again, VLIW4 + 1920 SP rumor has been going quite much for half a year, and was at least partly true. Late minute changes?

    looks slightly disappointing and contradicts with leaked prices which suggest performance on par with 580 but maybe these prices were exaggerated

    in the end it all boils down to price/performance/watt but if it's noticeably slower than gtx580 AMD left out a big opportunity

    on the other hand the slightly slower but cheaper strategy helped amd gain huge market shares in the last few years

    One thing is certain. AMD still manages to keep everyone confused until the release date.

    so a gtx570 is more than 20% faster than a gtx480?
    epic!
