AMD Cayman info (or rumor)

Wow, have you seen Unigine Heaven? If that's true then this is some awesome tessellation performance boost coming from 5870.


Wouldn't that be awesome?!

lol even nvidia admitted that 6970 is faster than 580 in unigine so i guess thats less talking about unigine for nvidia from now on

That's GTX 570 in the slide

1920SP and only "faster than 5870?" I think those could be wrong...

Plus 2x6pin for 225W seems a bit low... 2x6 would be a max of 225W already, yes I know 6 pins aren't actually limited to 75W but GPU design isn't like that, usually..

Plus, that chart seems to underestimate performances, HD6870 is closer to HD5870 than to HD5850.

yep 6870 is very close to 5870 performance, like 4-6% from its performance with only 70% of its shaders.

i know but it says nearly 30 percent faster than 570 which puts 6970 above 580 plus that is nvidias own slide lol which makes chosen situation best suitable for nvidias own propaganda
