Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Also look at this:

These show that HD5870 is just around 10-20% faster than HD4870 X2. Now, if I am correct, GTX295 is faster than HD4870 X2 by same amount right. This means that HD5870 will directly go head to head with GTX295. And HD5850 will go head to head with GTX285.
now, GTX295 is selling at 500$ and GTX285 is at $385. And these two have monstrous power consumption.
If, AMD puts a price of $299 for HD5850 and $399 for HD5870, they will be making lot of money as they will get huge margins. I have a feeling that nvidia will bring out their competitors for HD5850 and HD5870 for same price and they will occupy high end segment till both the companies release dual chipset cards.
so, I think this would be the lineup in ATI market by end of October:
HD5550 - $70, 240SP, <50W TDP. Sept 22nd
HD5650 <$100, 640SP, <75W TDP Sept 22nd
HD5670 <$120, 640SP, <75W TDP Sept 22nd
HD5750 <$150, 960SP, <100W TDP October
HD5770 <$200, 960SP, <100W TDP October
HD5850 <$300, 1440SP, <150W TDP Sept 22nd
HD5870 <$400, 1600SP, <200W TDP Sept 22nd
HD5870 X2 <$600, <350W TDP October.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Yes...ATI wants the top spot..and are not ashamed to do so. They are releasing a new chip (core architecture) after almost 16-17 months. Seems like they have made good use of time. Just hope heating/stock cooler and drivers are just as good. But till now on paper..the series look great. Its open war now..!
I guess 5870x2 ATI will hold back, when nVidia release the GT300 series. It will be the last cannon which ATI has. They will let the market saturate with the low,mid,high end parts -- then bomb us with ultra-super. But on the flip sides enthusiasts (most of USA)..will be crying for the X-2 versions.
Seems logical..but I have a feeling they will hold onto the ultra 5870x2 for a while.
By the way...you can see some images (though they seem reference), from here.
Am dying to see the real benchmarks.

I'm just wondering what will happen when ATI will release HD5870X2.
Better wait for nvidia's GT3 series and pray for a better and faster competition

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Honestly I find them ugly looking -- but they are reference prototypes probably.
Am sure MSI/Powercolor/Palit/Sapphire will make them pretty and release them. I like a good looking piece of hardware -- heck its the most expensive part in the whole setup...!
wow. that card looks like a BMTC bus from side view in the last image

I second your view
BTW, For the second line - it's true if you are not going for core i7 extreme 975
@ desibond - Nice analysis on the previous page

I want the HD5850 & HD5870 to be tested with CRYSIS , always ATI get drowned in the CRYSIS !!

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Not fair to just benchmark with Crysis specially for ATI.
Crytek is hand-in-glove with nVidia.The code is optimized for nVidia GPUs.

^^^True, but I have a feeling ATi will still steal the show.....

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
Guys....here is more galore on the 5XXX series.
Seriously the architecture and new functionality and performance is mind boggling. ATI has really pulled a rabbit out of the cap, this time. Would suggest all GPU buyers..to hold their horses..till this series is out...!
Here is the link.
