Is The Radeon X850 The Current Hotrod?

[swifty11212]

ya the 7800 is the best but IMO, i love cards made by ATI because i think that ATI's cards are like hotrods and nvidias are like little ricer cars

LMAO good one the r520 should be the new hotrod unless the 7800 ultra ricer edition comes out but ill buy either one in sli or crossfire config.

i dont think there as anyway the 7800 will be able to unconicously consider touching the r520

Actually, the Inquirer said before that the r520 will only have 16 pipelines, but it will run at higher speeds.

Nope.Most rumors say *32*, but they may have to drop it to get a higher yeild. Nobody knows yet really, we'll just have to wait and see

 

**edit** wtf when did they change it? reading up now(dont trust inquirer or anandtech)**edit**

 

**edit2** Sigh too many rumors. apparantly it has 32 but will only use 16(wtf) unless they really need them all. They will have very high clockspeeds tho, and I can see ppl ocing them amazingly close to 1ghz core once released. **edit2**

Yeah, we all know the 7800 is the king right now....on PCIe. You can't get an AGP 7800 though.
