Nice to see AMD are taking my primary complaint about their last architecture seriously and giving this one a big push in it's ability to perform tessellation. In a lot of ways Cayman and Cypress were DX10.1 cards with DX11 kind of tacked on competing against cards made for DX11 from the ground up.

It'll be interesting to see AMD with their true next generation architecture, since it'll be their first big change since the HD2900. Going to VLIW4 from VLIW5 was a step in the right direction--but, it wasn't nearly as drastic of a change as a lot of people here made it out to be.
