it comes with a higher stock clock so i knew it would overclock better lol that's not what i was meaning. I meant physical differences architecturally.

Over 10,000 modifications... according to that post.

Over 10.000 modifications or the same mod in 10.000 different places?? I bet it's closer to the second.

4890's are badass. In CrossFire they are REALLY badass. AWESOME card, not just a overclocked 4870 IMO.

959 million transistors, up from 956 million transistors
de-coupling capacitors
reworked ASIC
Over 10,000 modifications

Still trying to find out if there is more information.

I think it's safe to say, there are modifications, it's not the same chip, there are some improvements and it's a bit faster than the HD4870, it's not designed to be an upgrade FROM the HD4870 just an additional choice for those with lower end or older gen cards considering an upgrade..... thats gotta be good hasent it?

They forgot to add in ATI's line up, as it does not fully beat the GTX260 216 in ALL given situations..

Amazing how much fuss you people make if it's the same rv770 or a new chip... when it comes to ATI.

But when nvidia pushes the same rebranded chip over and over again, hardly anyone talks about it.

Some nvidia flu, he?

Good for AMD, nice chip... still awaiting ASUS's TOP!

Actually NVidia get probably more grief in here.

this statement will be more acceptable when 4890x2 release
"world’s most powerful graphics processor"

As was said Nvidia actualy gets more grief over rebranded cards because its just BS.

Not the point... I was stating that most people comment it's the same RV770 and that there are no true diferences between them!

No arguing here... for the retail market, NV more grief about it.
