I don't understand why there is a need for so much negatives, gloom and doom about Cayman and AMD in this thread, most time from the same people always negative. Is it because the Cayman was over-hyped by few posters? Don't blame AMD for that.
It's a AMD thread so maybe we can pick some positives for example:
I don't think it's going to be paper launch as some of the Nvidia fanboys predicted.
I don't think the HD 6970 is going to be slower than GTX 570 as the FUD calculated and some fanboys were defending as real news.
Why not wait for the real reviews from few unbiased reviewers, usually not much good news come from some of the German sites.
According to rumors the Cayman is about 25% smaller die size, so AMD has the luxury to adjust the prices to reflect the performance if needed. For the majority of the buyers the performance value ratio is still most important even for most members on this forum.
Hopefully in January we will get the real AMD flagship card, the HD 6990.
For now, the last year HD 5970 is still the performance leader, so that's not too bad.
PS
I hope there is nothing wrong about being little positive about AMD in this thread.
