    How do they plan on doing that without considerably higher power consumption? As is Tahiti is no small die and Ghz edition draws a lot and runs hot.

    They had a lot more room to work with Cypress as far as die size and power consumption goes and didn't come close to a 60% improvement with Cayman.

    Are they taking up Nvidia's massive die strategy all of a sudden?
