mwahahaha
Call me a fanboy if you like, however you cant say something sucks all without anything to base it off. Please... stop being so presistent in your immature quest to destroy AMD's reputation, I'm fairly annoyed with it. Everytime I see an AMD article, you have to post slander against them. Nothing against you but just stop it mate.
how old are you, as you appear very immature. Before you posted were you having a tantrum on the floor or something?
everything AMD/ATI appears to rub you up the wrong way, is that because you bet on the wrong side? ;)
But looking GREAT!! AMD/ATI appear to be pulling out some nice things of late. this is looking very promising!
This will be interesting...
So does that mean there will be dual RV670? It came from the Inq, so who knows. But I do doubt that AMD have a dual core GPU as opposed to two dies on different areas of the pcb.
Also this card does look very interesting, if priced right two of these in crossfire might be worth a look.
Does anyone know if they made any changes to the Core. More Tmu's to increase performance in area's where the current X2900XT fails, also Hardware AA?
