Sorry man, calling it like it is. Why don't you just come out in the open about your bias instead of pretending to be objective.
I'll bet that you will buy the next NV GPU regardless, claim your reasons, then that would be the last we all hear from you in this section anyway (until the next round of GPU's ). Carry on.Comment

No actually I go for what suits me the best, I don't buy out of brand loyalty because I'm not some retarded douchebag that thinks companies are out for customer loyalty when they are only out for your money. Sorry man, but ATI doesn't love you at all, they love you wallet and the work you do for them and that's it.Originally posted by Sound_Card View Post
I like ATI cards, and still consider the 9800pro to be one of the best cards I ever owned. But currently Nvidia gives me the features I want, profiles/and 3D vision.
Yes I am going to buy Nvidia next? why? Because I use 3D vision, which despite Nvidia's aggressive business tactics, and seeing as the only other solution for 3D on ATI is IZ3D which isn't sold outside of the US I'm pretty much screwed.
I couldn't give a rats ass if you think I'm biased or not, the only reason I was interested in ATI was because I'm gunna buy my dad a new GPU for xmas to replace that ****ty Geforce 9800x2 he has in his PC, and ATI will probably offer the most bang for buck providing they carry on the trend of the 4xxx series.
The only reason I don't post in the ATI section is because fanboys like you piss me off more than any other type of person out there.Fantards the scourge of the universe:Comment

Yes we know you love ATI and hate Nvidia.
But still no one has answered my question. A whole page and no one knows what the price of the top top end ATI card is?
What's different about the highest end ATI card anyway? More clock/Memory speed?
If it just ends up being more clock clock/memory I may just get him this card. Anything is better than the ****ty 9800GX2 card, man that card is a pos

I gotta say though I'm loving the 4 ports on the Card, 2 DVI HDMI and displayport.
I wonder what's taking displayport so long anyway, before LCD's where DVI/VGa now most are just DVI.
So where are the DVI/Displayport monitors?Fantards the scourge of the universe:Comment

I'm back in the PC realm now as consoles while I still play my 360 they have turned more into media streamers than game machines and a crossfire 4890 is too sweet not to play

Yeah, the 5870 is currently the fastest single gpu; and IMO that is a great price - but I'm gonna wait until the refresh or until the price on the 5870 goes down.Originally posted by SirBaron View PostLove take me down to the streets - Wings

ok people, we are all here to enjoy discussing the 5870 review's lets not start a flame war!
ON TOPIC: been reading all day, any CrossfireX (4x 4870/90 -2x4870X2) vs 5870(single/CF) spotted? everybody is measuring AA scaling but didnt find any XFire scaling..yet (ooo dark man of the "cave", you reading this?!

Cool, hopefully by xmas it becomes a little bit cheaper as supply increases. Though it's going to be very hard for Nvidia to beat £300 with the same performance.Originally posted by curio View Post
At least this way it gives me a excuse to mess around with his PC once I put the ATI card in.

DP have been around for sometime, but connector standards tend to stick around, heck there is still mobo's with PS/2 connectors! besides let aside DVI, there are still gfx cards with VGA output (like mine...fail)Originally posted by SirBaron View Post
Generally, market momentum is nothing to take on with cut-throat i-wont-support-you-anymore decisions
highest 5870 isnt just more MHz, its 1600 Shaders vs 1440 on the 5850, although still the 5850 should be a good upgrade.Originally posted by SirBaron View Post

thanks! missed that one, but still no 5870 vs CrossfireX or Tri/Quad SLI, and separate articles wont cut it as i don't want to "interpolate" different test beds, importance of this that we can have a taste of 5870X2 vs GT300 (or GT300 GX2 variant)...i just cant wait!!

I'm so happy ATI is once again better than nVidia! I've had to stay in nvnews since the 8 series GPU's came out!Comment

The current top end is the 5870 which has an MSRP of $379. The as yet unreleased actual high end is the "Hemlock" Dual GPU which is going to be under $500. It's not known yet if the cores used are going to be two of the 5870 die's or if it'll be 5850's.Originally posted by SirBaron View Post
The difference then will be crossfire on a stick, like current X2 cards.
Driver support for single cards and crossfire sticks will be important.Comment

I wonder if the 5870 is bandwidth starved ?

next time get a life, you don't know what I'm talking about, I'm not impressed because its only 25-30% faster then a gt 285, I expected more because of the ATi's slides, hmm yeah with AA and AF that is impressive but with the increased bandwith, thats expected at higher settings it will pull awayfrom previous gens, so what we see is old games that don't really push the shader power of this card? But I expected 70% + over previous generations of cards, nV is late, if they aren't later then December, they will take the performance crown and they don't need to worry about loosing ground, of course unless they fu*k up like the r600.Comment

You were impressed when the 280 came out though, and it did not beat the last gens dual card. Your hypocrisy is showing. Nv will not have the crown, because when they release their very hot and very late card, ati will release the x2.Originally posted by razor1 View PostComment

I'm disappointed, even the Rage3D review failed to test SSAA on games that can't do AA at all.Last edited by Destroy; Sep 23, 2009, 08:08 PM.Member of the Glorious PC Gaming Master Race-"Doesn't any game maker know how to make a PC feeling game anymore?
