Bosco Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 It was comparing it to the GTX 295, not 285... They are both in their own graphs. 285 is there as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Smith Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 I am not sure that info is accurate Carl. I am a little skeptical about those charts that are being shown. Alot of games are older on that list there is not a good selection of newer stuff in it. However its possible those were from a month ago or something hard to say. Its going to be intresting to see where things are going to go thats for sure. That's why I said I am eagerly waiting for OCC's review! When it comes from sources we know and trust, only then we can be sure of the numbers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Ya the info session is set for 3 weeks or so from now. We can pretty much expect same type of jump from Team green as well I would think based on rumours Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waco Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 personally i believe the 5870x2 will show more desirable results then the 5870s in crossfire...... some games do not scale well for crossfire... The 5870X2 is just two 5870s in Crossfire...so I don't see what you're getting at. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
molotovdaskwerl Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 The 5870X2 is just two 5870s in Crossfire...so I don't see what you're getting at. but don't they optimize it to kinduv have some more connection with two gpu's making them act almost like 1?

Waco Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 but don't they optimize it to kinduv have some more connection with two gpu's making them act almost like 1? No. They run Crossfire just like separate cards, they just don't talk through the motherboard to do it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
molotovdaskwerl Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 No. They run Crossfire just like separate cards, they just don't talk through the motherboard to do it. so if u crossfire too 5870x2 you can run 5870x4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 so if u crossfire too 5870x2 you can run 5870x4 Correct that is called Quad Fire Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waco Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Correct that is called Quad Fire Quad Fire CrossfireX...and it's a monstrous waste of money for most things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.E.A Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 No man you don't have it right. Sure NVIDIA might be faster with its GT300 series, but keep in mind that's not going to be until next year. Don't you know PC technology is progressing at a phenomenal rate? If you take a graphics card that has been released months later there a good chances it will be better... Also the important is not having the fastest card on the market. If you look at the current generation, yes NVIDIA did have the fastest card, but I think who did the best overall is ATI. In case you did not know, NVIDIA is currently selling under its manufacturing costs for a long time now. That's what resulted from AMD's agressive pricing. Look at what it gave. Finally, look at this article, ATI is clearly the one with the most growth. The revenues from the HD4xxx series are what allowed them to develop and launch their next series of GPUs so early compared to NVIDIA. And They will have the fastest cards on the market for some time. Obviously they will be asking a premium for it, like every other manufacturer would do. That's called business. That being said, I don't think NVIDIA will be able to... who said the nvidia gets more money than ati , who said that nvidia is better in making cards.....? all i said that nvidia cards are good not the company itself , i like ATI but it has some issues i do not like and nvidia has not those issues i am want to get a card , so i will wait till nvidia push gtx 300 because i do not want to say : if i waited a little bit , by the way what i meant by removing ati from the scene is getting all the good stuff i said plus decent pricing ......... thanks for the information i really did not now any thing about the gtx 260 price drop ........ some times i say ati sucks , i had 4850 and my friend had gts 250 when looking at the games we both play i see nvidia performs better in my res , and the heat issue , and the drivers <_< , how would you feel if you are on the web or any thing else other than gaming and the screen stops and turns black then come back to normal and that happens every 4-7 minutes this is what was happening with my previous 4850,2900xt , that is why i hate ati my friend who had 4870 said this did not happen to him before with 4870 and both cards were sapphire , and when i asked why was this happening to me i got this : for 4850 it was happening because of the heat , (do not mind 2900xt ) before getting my gtx 275 i could hav got 4890 toxic but the games i play 275 performs better and some times i play at 2560x1600 and the gtx 275 performs better at that res both companies are great , i like them as well as amd and intel , every one has it`s pros and cons ............ thanks again for the info.............? all i hope that nvidia will price their cards well this time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
