I just received an E-Mail from AMD stating that some RV770 info can be posted today:
Effective 9:00 AM EDT on Thursday, June 19th, AMD will be lifting the embargo preventing the publishing of ATI Radeon HD 4850 performance previews. These performance previews may include ATI Radeon HD 4850 benchmarks, photos of the ATI Radeon HD 4850 hardware, information printed on related packaging or photos of the packaging itself and related pricing information.

g0dM@nI'm wondering the same thing... I'll never forget how funny the 8800gt launch was...
8800 GT was more of a showcase model to pull the fizz out of the RV670 launch. I bet even NVidia wouldn't have predicted it would beat the RV670. The biggest blunder was lack of supplies during X-Mas '07, in which ATI capitalised, everyone and their mothers bought HD38x0.

I think everyone and their mothers will be buying 48xxs this go around. :D

I'm eventually going to CFx my 3870 X2 with a 4870 X2. Will make for some killer benches. :rockout:
