AMD Cayman info (or rumor)

[andos]

yo boy... look to this this Photo fake

oooooooomg

derno

[eric66]

The fun continues:

specs look like legit but the slide is probably fake seriously what happened to chinese 'we don't care about nda spirit'

[Dimitriman]

The fun continues!
there are words about max fans speed reaching 5770RMP and no heat spreading plates on the back of the cards

so apparently amd decided to flip a switch that screws everything up for their next card?
so say the chinese and fud.

wonder what charlie is saying about cayman.

[informal]

wonder what charlie is saying about cayman.

How about this :

Why isn't anyone speculating on a switch between 1920 and 2560?

-Charlie

Oh my

[Sn0wm@n]

LOLL this thread has become ridiculous

[informal]

"There must be some way out of here," said the joker to the thief,
"There's too much confusion, I can't get no relief.

As Mr Dylan said it nicely lol

Oh yeah and : "No reason to get excited"

[generics_user]

How about this :


Oh my

this was a joke - charlies way to say that the 1536-1920 switch idea is completely ridicolous

speaking german is clearly an advantage in the next few hours

[halfwaythere]

The 1 million dollar question is: can it reach 1000Mhz on gpu at stock volts and of course can it play Crysis maxed out?

And for those who do not there is always google translate.
Sexy looking card, btw. Time for the guy to actually leak the specs!
Well, or at least some decent pictures of the box...

[tbone8ty]

theres no "slow speed board" sticker on it. yeah! :p

[bl4ckdr4g00n]

1600?
GPU-z must be wrong

gpu-z:

from the same guy as the photos above.

however, i think gpu-z doesn't detect the proper data yet.

*edit*
bl4ckdr4g00n beat me to it. i'm getting old and slow

[bl4ckdr4g00n]

That means gtx570 gonna screw HD6970 in 3Dmark Vantage
3dmark is not everything.
But some what disappointed.

It is said to hit 950/1450. dunno about Crysis yet.

Vantage sucks, it loves Nvidia, it uses PhysX (you can still disable it, I know).
It is really no longer valid as a gaming benchmark.
We need some DX11 benches, anyway.

3DMark 11:

6970 3DMark11 Performance

[zalbard]

Too slow.
He was linked the new drivers, perhaps he will give them a try. These seem a bit old.

[HelixPC]

Hmmm, i am disappointed, i expected more shaders. 6870 crossfire is a better buy, if you have 2 slots open.

[Oztopher]

Is those results are true, then... wtf lol, that's like 10% better than a 6870, judging from this review: http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/forum...-review-9.html

[-=DVS=-]

So what happened to that 40% faster ? if it doesn't do better in games its fail.

[bl4ckdr4g00n]

believe me
no kind of driver could solve that distance

[hurrdurr]

If its price and performance match GTX 580 it's not more fail than GTX 580, right? It's not like this card came out one year after 580 or anything.

[zalbard]

This is a brand new architecture, remember that. And he uses a driver that's been released more than 2 weeks before the release of both the benchmark he runs and the card he uses.

Well, the performance seems to be quite far from it, judging these results.
