4850 benchmarks.....when!?!

Try when they're launched.

When they lift NDA most likely, which is probably going to be 1 minute before they launch  

we will see thenm in a 2 weeks time maybe.youd be licky if some chinese sites manage to get some benchies.as they say, look east..

If I look east all I see is South America.

excuse me, but are you an earthling  

Oh Area61 are you Malaysian?

No I'm Australian, what are you? You're not one of those American creatures are you? Annoying little things they are, always getting into things they shouldn't.  

Hey mate! You look north you'll see me!
I'm staying at the penis of Asia=Malaysia.

Hello up (down?  ) there!

Never.

im not an american.hell.since when the americans be came little things to you.my god they are huge.im 5'6 myself.BTW since you are australian,automatically, you are an asian now....geez  

Yup, Australia competes with China, Japan, etc etc in Asian Cup(football/soccer)
In Olympic qualifying too.  

its always confusing when the world is round....

and little more complicated when it sphere....

to romulus47plus1: wei orang malaysia! ko asal orang negeri mane?

Wassup! Saya orang Perak!

 

Screw China and Japan. Korea is best in Asia cup.  

Perghh.. satu kampung rupanye.. perak ktne? Aku asal je perak tp skang ni dok kat kelantan.. r u malay?indian?chinese?...

Haha, budak Cina lah, tinggal kat Bidor, pernah dengar?
Kelantan besar ni, mana tinggal?

Owh.. ape lak x penah dngar.. aku dulu hari2 lalu situ.. dulu aku dok kat medan gopeng... skang ni kat kota bharu.. haha.. rilek je kita brsembang kat sini.. hahahah

I kinda supported Iran too.
Anyway, which team's winning Euro?
I say France!

Haha, saya makan dulu, lewat ni.

definetely not ENGLAND.. 

France and Italy is good. I like Italy myself.

canada...will win OMG guys  ....we are 1xx position but it means nothing  

for the benchies , touching myself for them  

Scotland never got to go but its got its good points nether did England so it all worked out in the end

lol what an off topic thread... grizz grate post " and a little more complicated when the world is a sphere"... lol

Interesting news..

A very reliable source on another forum, who been giving out hints pre NDA, for while now has said performance of the HD4850 is very impressive, so impressive that in crossfire it beats GTX 280 in Crysis, AOC and Vantage ( all the details he is giving at the moment )..

Crysis @ 1920x1200 Very High / No AA is getting 38fps on a GTX 280 ( 140% faster than an Ultra )

Basically the HD4850 is a bit faster than Ultra @ 1920 x 1200 in Crysis

Would you mind linking to your claims?

Above leaked benches of the GTX 280 came out and this guy ORB responded with

This how todays high end performs in that test

Evga Nforce 780i
Qx9650
2x EVGA 8800 GTX SLI
4GB Crucial blastix 800mhz
Win Vista x64 Ultimate




GTX 280 is 50% faster than 2 x 8800gtx in Sli with slower cpu ( Quad @ 2.66 )

SAD

lol

Are you for real?

Yes I am !
Turn Up AA and AF UP and you got your self a slideshow!

So where do you get the 4850 performance from?

The part of my post in quotes..



Vantage benches have been leaked on the same site, AOC benches have been leaked on an unoffical AOC forum ( no figures, trusted member says single card performs better than Gtx )

Still leaks, we had a bunch of people saying this and that last time around.

I'll wait for the official story, because right now I don't trust any of the peple who have early cards to have optimized drivers yet.

Also I want to see a broader range of performance, because given a small slice of the picture I could've shown the HD2900 in a much better light last time while not fudging the numbers just selectively picking the cherries.

Exactly. That and you have the people with the cards trying to downplay performance too. One of these G280 users has repeatedly said that the G280 is disappointing, well, he may have gotten the placebo drivers heheh

you can't even read this picture

thats annoying...

but either way that seems like a pretty big improvement... also the drivers still aren't optimized at all... so ... w/e

I still wanna see real benches from like toms or something

early benches probably arent trustable.they tend to play with the results making the cards king or sore losers.but its nice to see some glipmse of it in action tho........

Oh be nice. I always thought that us Americans were very much like Aussies, but with a different accent. We both had states that started as penal colonies. We both had ancestors kicked out of Europe for one reason or another. We both have traditions involving horses and cattle (well maybe sheep for you guys, the sheep here led to range wars, sadly enough).

The only Australian I actually knew said that Texas was a lot like Australia, except with Christmas in the wrong season. So, lighten up, we're both the kind of nations that the Europeans hate to invite home for a visit, but when we do visit, we set things right more often than not.

Now, how does Canada fit in? What about New Zealand? Poorer relations of the more vigorous colonies? Well, not in the arts. Canada gave the world SCTV and NZ gave us Peter Jackson. Can't beat that.



Yes, it just doesn't fit on 4 elephants riding on a turtle the way a simply flat round world does. Well, if multiverse theory is correct, maybe there's a world like that with different initial conditions leading to different physical laws?  



Early benchies give Nvidia a boost in TWIMTBP games but ATI optimizes their drivers and catch up before too long, plus Nvidia can't always get the preferred framerates right out of the starting gate, no matter what they offer a game company.

Kiwis? Ohh man, they got sheep, knee deep in sheep deeap heheh, they have great trout fishing, they have gorgeous mountains, and friendly folks. Canada? They have hockey n beer

Guy on extremesystems is going to post results today!!

^lets wait then.i dont expect much tho...

I remember the days when we'd drive up to Niagara Falls just to fill my friend's car with gas by the Imperial gallon and stock up on Molsen. That was back in the 70's.

Now, I prefer Scottish ales, but occasionally go Canadian if I end up at Bennigans. Not that I drink all that much at my age, but when I do, it's quality.

I feel sorry for people stocking up on Bud at the supermarket. Do they really know what they're doing?

I got news from a supplier I've been in contact since 2 days ago.
Apparently the AMD cards are arriving to our country next week. Not sure about nVidia's.

No way - it's Englan.... oh wait.  

Portugal will take it
