AMD Radeon HD 6700 Series ''Barts'' Specs Sheet Surfaces

Even my 5970s seem to be running without any driver problems. Currently running 10.8.
Maybe its because i haven't OCed the card and left it the way it is.

pantherx12 · Oct 1, 2010

Not had driver issues since 9.3s myself.

Any more news about barts?

Same here, but eyefinity has become the bane of my existence. Nevermind that 5970 and Crossfire Eyefinity was supposed to be the only supported config...took till almost February before 5870 got Crossfire and Eyefinity.

Did you get that? 5970 supported Crossfire Eyefinity, but no other Crossfire config supported Eyefinity. Should give you an idea of how truly poor these drivers are...

I dropped back to one card, and one monitor, and barely have any issues. I'm still left with a card that overheats when it's 30c in the room, but I RMA'd one card, and maybe that will fix all my problems...but I am not confident it will, as I still get cursor curruption with Eyefinity and DP monitors. If I take out all the add=ons this gen has in comparison to 4-series, the cards work GREAT!. :shadedshu

Nope. With ~2 weeks left before NDA expires, I don't tihnk we'll hear very much. Reviewers for launch should have already received cards, so NDAs are tight on info right now.

What we need is pictures of retail card, heatsink, etc...should go a long way. Of course, this assumes that the OCT 18th date is correct....

Drivers aren't the best but it serves the purpose.. Atleast for me.

And i owned an Eyefinity setup till about two months back.

I don't have any ATI driver "problems" per se and really never did. However, in terms of my overall gaming experience (and I hate to admit this btw) I feel I simply get an overall better experience with Nvidia software even with the relatively limited time I've used NV cards compared to ATI. I don't think it's any one reason like so many games are Nvidia sponsored TWIMTBP from the ground up or the existence of great tools like NHancer but rather a combination of things. And probably not everyone would feel the same even having the same hardware and games as I've had.

Experiences like CaDaveCa's leave a bad taste in my mouth though.

wolf · Oct 1, 2010

If reviewers have or are now starting to recieve cards, no doubt something will leak somewhere and much jizzing will occur.

What's really the issue is that there hasn't been any fix for outstanding issues for so long. I've had many cards, RMA'd cards, bought new parts, etc..it's that bit that is most frustrating.

But like I said...originally it was 5970's only for my chosen monitor config, and maybe if I had chosen better in my purchases, I'd not have so many issues. In the end, I was hoping for tri-fire Eyefinity...one gpu per monitor...if one card works well @ 1920x1080 and 8xAA, then 3 should be ideal, right?

If the 6-series will do Eyefinity right, I'm gonna get 3x 40-inch LCD TVs for it. I was looking last night while shopping for a microwave, and I can get some decent panels for ~$700 locally. I even ahve the wife's approval...

But that damn corrupting cursor issue has got to stop. And I know for sure I'm not the only one with the problem, as it's in the release notes. Thats' a deal-breaker for me.

Tatty_Two · Oct 1, 2010

I had HUGE problems with crossfire on my old 4850's and 4890's for most of the early 9.xxx catalyst releases, to the point where I actually ditched my 1gb 4850 crossfire setup which was a real shame as they were palit sonics and were running at 880mhz without voltage tweaks, I managed to keep hold of my 4890 crossfire setup for quite some time as finally Ati sorted issues out on about catalyst 9.5.

having said that, with the single 5850 I have had no issues whatsoever period.

Wow that will be one hell of a setup! :rockout:

I even have the wife's approval...

Lucky.

either that or crazy, or both :laugh:

I can picture the look on her face when she finds you for the first time in your nook of pixels both jizzing and drooling simultaneously.

dude...it's already on NDA...so save your excitement or disappointment later when it come to shelve.

Looks like every GPU with a PCB long fan but thanks for the pic.

If this shot is real, wouldn't it say "Built by AMD" instead of "Built by ATI"?
