N.E.A Posted September 30, 2009 Posted September 30, 2009 (edited) it is a beast , 5870 is about 10.8 inches , 5870x2 looks longer i remembered what IVI said , I did honestly believe there would be a 5870x8 because I read it there.l Edited September 30, 2009 by N.E.A Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rourkchris Posted September 30, 2009 Posted September 30, 2009 at last some news about gt300 http://www.techpowerup.com/104942/NVIDIA_G...__Detailed.html Finally some #s. Looks to be a great card! Gives the 5870x2 and a future 5890/5890x2 something to shoot for. Just ordered a 2nd 5870. If newegg gets it out the door today it will be here tomorrow and I'll throw up some 3DMark #s tomorrow night. I'm hoping to run the 2nd card @ 900/1300 if it will do it like the 1st one does. Also hope to run with a maxed out CPU clock of 4.63Ghz. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
