AMD Cayman info (or rumor)

Yeah my thoughts exactly. Although one thing that does concern me, is that the difference between a 6950 and 6970 at stock in those heaven benchmarks, is about 3 fps

800 core vs 880, 1250 mem vs 1375, 1408 SP's vs 1536 and only 3 fps difference?? Points to drivers IMO...

Or memory bandwidth limitation.

I was looking at the same thing, might be another 5850/5870 fiasco where clock for clock there was only a 3% difference... though I hope not.

well then pick up 6950's instead .. and clock em higher by 3% and you saved some money on the purchase to use towards a water block
