5870 CRYSIS

wow, nice find! card is a beast!

yea i agree completely. Things are looking great for ATI again w/the 5xxx, be interesting to see how the battle heats up in the next gen. but man, i can't wait for CF benches as well!

If those are true then Crysis is well and truely beaten by a single video card. What's even better news is that they were using a Phenom II 955, I would wager you could expect to see a few more FPS when the game is running on a overclocked Core i5/7.

----------------

John, are those numbers Minimum or average FPS for Crysis?

OK, think of it this way, and bring some salt.
If it has double rops, double shaders, 15% higher clocks, 30% faster memory, and the only thing we can compare it to is a card using CF, then yes, its double
I think the new schedular is helping alot here, I also hear theres been memory opts, so itll get even more milage out of its memory, much like we saw vs G92 and G200, where AA is no biggie

When are the reviews kicking - its already almost 3pm here

NDA is lifting today. But Today when?

They said they will UNVEIL everything on 10th. That means they will do major Presentation. WTF is UNVEIL if not that. and what will they unveil if we will rely on leaks. I think today we must see official reviews or something.

Umm, explain what youre saying?
30fps minimum is just 2 lower than a 295 average fps, qhich is 11 fps slower than what the rumors are

If thius card sells for 300-400$, and is 30% faster than the 295 in Crysis, why is that bad?

Its exactly twice as fast as a 285 in Crysis, now that make a 285 worth what then, maybe 170$?

Quadfire 5870X2.....ooohh myyyy

single 5870 is about as good as a GTX 295 .. WHERE DO YOU SEE IMPROVEMENT in gaming(single chip card as good as dual chip card) less power OK....
But in games 0

A 285 cant run Crysis at 19x12 with x4AA

I'm more impressed by the fact it was playing Crysis at Very High DX10, given how badly coded DX10 is on Crysis and the fact it murders current cards the 30 FPS is an impressive feat especially when considering 4x AA has been enabled which is another killer. I would also expect to see a few more FPS when paired with a faster CPU.

the 5870 is just as good as the GTX295 and you say thay suck

...rename 295 to 5870

The rumors seem to be repeating, so maybe theyre not rumors.
And Milos, very high DX10 with 4xAA, try it itll be gorgeous, ummm eerrr, thats if it doesnt stutter and slide show

20-30 FPS, at that high rez I dont need AA ... but thanx

the NDA does not get lifted till the 20'th i think, the event today is just for the press

I've seen September 22th as the american launch and 23th as the european one. Today AMD and Nvidia should hold some public demonstration of something, but I doubt there will be any official numbers.

Yeah its seems everyone is saying 22nd for the official launch. Hopefully we wont have to wait that long for some good benchmarks.

These cards should probably have some stupid high clocked GDDR5, perhaps even an increased bus, so, I suppose they can easily bottleneck a Lynnfield-based setup in a simple Crossfire configuration - just as anything below 2 16x PCIe 2.0 lanes.

if it was an nvidia card that was pulling they numbers he would raving

It looks good. Then we still might have a 5890 and surely a 5870X2. Let's hope Nvidia have something more than rebranded cards in order to bring prices down. I hold no big hopes for them, though.
