    7900 GTX only 8-10% faster than 7800gtx 512

    That never stopped people from calling the X800XT PE "Phantom Edition"...

    7900 GTX only 8-10% faster than 7800gtx 512

    I agree, it certanly was a Phantom Edition here in Sweden too. If you were lucky you could get your hands on one right after the launch but thats about it.

    7900 GTX only 8-10% faster than 7800gtx 512

    Sorry you took my post as a "flaming" it sure wasnt meant as one. I just expressed my feelings on SLI and i happened to have another opinion then you.

    7900 GTX only 8-10% faster than 7800gtx 512

    And if im not misstaken it will make use of DX10 so even if you have "serious GPU power" with your quad SLI you might not be able to run it with all effects turned on... Not the same thing IMO. Buy two of the most expensive graphic cards and yeah you might have the best rig for a few month then...

    32 pipe 7900GTX rumor

    I have to agree with Jbirney, it’s getting really close to launch now and most things seem to be pointing towards a 24 pipe card. I would be really surprised if it turns out it actually have 32 pipes. BTW, another rumor from “TheInq”: http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=29928 "First tests...

    X1900XTX vs 7800GTX/512 - Hi-res results

    I can't say I’m one bit impressed. These seem to be ATIs own benchmarks so you can guess they are made to make X1900XTX look good but even with ATIs own benchmarks (if they are that) the X1900XTX doesn’t look good. In most cases its less then 20% faster than the GTX 512. I have no doubt the 7900...

    XBOX360 Revealed: Implications for R520?

    Exactly and why would we trust you? That post is over a year old, months older than the one I linked to that is. As far as I know most B3D members still believe that the R520 is based on R300 with maybe some features from the R500 and that the R600 will be based on the R500. See this...

    XBOX360 Revealed: Implications for R520?

    Of course its what he "believes", he dont know for sure....noone of us know for sure. Maybe the R520 is a completly new core, maybe it isnt. Like I have said a hundred times before its all just speculations! The point is that if i am to believe anyone I rather pick him than a poster on this...

    XBOX360 Revealed: Implications for R520?

    You didnt do a very good search of the B3D forums ;) Here is one post were DaveBaumann mention that he believes the R520 still being based on the R300. link: http://www.beyond3d.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=14753&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=r500+r600+r520&start=20

    XBOX360 Revealed: Implications for R520?

    Do you honestly believe that ATI will not use any elements of the R500 in their coming graphic cores for PC? Things like the unified shader technology for example, do you really think they will come up with a completely new unified shader technology for their PC cores? Not very likely IMO. I’m...

    XBOX360 Revealed: Implications for R520?

    Listen, I’m not sure of anything concerning the upcoming ATI graphic cores since as I said before it’s just rumors and speculations. But if I was to believe anyone I would rather choose to listen to people like Dave Baumann and company on B3D which I know are very knowledgeable in this area...

    XBOX360 Revealed: Implications for R520?

    Go find it yourself, they have a search function in their forum, it’s not hard... First, why should we trust you more than the people over at B3D? As Lorien said there are a lot of forum members over there that are in the business, both hardware and software developers. And secondly you...

    XBOX360 Revealed: Implications for R520?

    I think you misunderstood him. I don’t think he (or anyone else) is saying that the R600 design is finished in any way. It’s just that R600 will be based on the R500 (Xbox 360) architecture, with unified shader model and so on. The R520 is said to still be based on the R300 architecture (heavy...
