AMD says that their next-gen GPU will 250% faster than the one introduced in Jul of 2008. That is going by raw TFLOPS
Good luck getting steady 80 fps in raids, let alone Dalaran on a high population server on a single gpu... Unless you got a monster of a cpu to pair it with. I mean, they're alone in Mulgore for Christ's sake :lol:Silenus said:The actual resolution being rendered at is 7680 x 3200; WoW got over 80 fps with the details maxed.
Dirt 2 will be DX11, and from the reviews and previews it seems to be a rather good game. One I would very much like to try with a new DX11 card.I somehow find the idea of multiple displays for gaming less than enticing. I'd prefer one big monitor to several smaller ones. The bezel-less one looks interesting but I'd imagine it would cost an arm and a leg (again, one big monitor is way more appealing). What I'm most interested in with DX11 cards is the performance compared to previous generations and the expected games (anyone know some good titles in the wings?)
Cool to hear, rumour is that ATI will be demoing benchmarks tomorrow night.Dirt 2 will be DX11, and from the reviews and previews it seems to be a rather good game. One I would very much like to try with a new DX11 card.
divide by 5 rule........... the 5870 only has 320 shaders at 850Cool to hear, rumour is that ATI will be demoing benchmarks tomorrow night.
The 5870 has nearly 3TFlops of processing power.
1600 Shaders @ 850 Mhz.
That's double the 4890 at the same clocks. This thing should hopefully fly!
Could this be my crysis card?
I've had the money waiting in a box for like 2 years on principal
Yes, we all know they count the 5 way shaders individually.I loled
WoW at 80fps? HAHAHAHA
the game is server limited to 30fps anyway, AND IS ENTIRELY CPU DEPENDANT.

Well, the current rumours are that nvidia are going to demo their new stuff around the 5 series launch to steal the show....and requires you to sell a kidney to pay for their product.
But, seriously just wait for the reviews to come out. I'm not making any move toward either camp until both parties have dealt their cards.
$299 for the 5850, $399 for the 5870Any idea how much the card will cost? Been a while since I've upgraded my graphic card. Even longer since I've used an ATI.
SameNew card season makes me feel like a kid anticipating christmas
Not if you compare die sizes it doesn'tit also means nvidia does more with less
