LOL i dont know if it supposed to be a good news or a bad news.. anyway, the growth of DX11 games is very slow..

Only a paper release!

plan to upgrade to HD5870 but, after heard rumors on new HD 6xxx, now I'm in dilemma. Should I wait or just buy HD5870?

just wait 1-2.. 5 series almost a year edy..

Actually I kinda feel that 5 series dominate too little time. It's just one year. I still can remember the 4000 series dominate more than 1 year.

Well... If you are not planning to change graphic after your purchase this then you wait for the 6000 series. ( Assume you have enough money ).

If you want to save money but wanna get 7000 series later on, get 5000 series first ( Of course wait it drops price first )

OR if you want to save money but not planning to change graphic card later, still get 5000 series. ( 5000 series sure is a best bang for bucks )

5series got plenty more of time.. even games also not much using dX11..
me still using 4series..

To be honest, I cant even differentiate btw dx 11 and dx10 during game.. All seems the same to me.. Enjoy the game is more important . I think those 4 series user include you should be happy that it can still run high quality on recent games. I'm so worried my 5870 cant last long. Especially when the 28nm released, our performance quality dropped like there is no tomorrow LOL

i think because ur playing dx10 games.. that's why not notice..
but if the game can play in dx11.. got different on shading, texture and realistic mode..

i did compare 4870 with 5770 last time.. it's nice..
since the performance quite the same, i not bother switching..
though the price also very stable no chance to grab with cheap price..

nvidia can't fight.. no price war..

I got play some dx11 game such as dirt 2, alien vs predator, but not much diff >.< Maybe I did not try the dx10 version of dirt 2.
Haha, nvidia dropped their price just 4 months after the released, you can see what is the pressure behind them. I have no idea what will the nvidia market be after AMD release 6000 series, maybe even 460 also can't help them already

it's bad for us if nvidia can't catch up.. amd will play demon..
control the price and hold the new release.. right now..

Yes I know.. just serving some "light snacks"

Just wait for the 28nm nvidia released in the market to beat 6000 series ~~~~ Sigh.... won't see any price dropped until Nvidia released new 28nm T____T

VR-Zone reports that yield issues are still present in the 6xxx series.
-68xx now launched first in November
-partners haven't got cards yet (they're not told prices either)

Bad news for us all.

DiRT 2 use very little DX11. no idea about alien vs predator. If the game full support DX11, Currently AMD 5k & Nvidia 4xx still to handle it.

Any1 have mount (n mod) accelero extreme plus to fit on their 5850 non-reference? ..cant find all over d internet for solution

hi everyone.

i got a simple eyefinity question.

i got this 23" acer on 1920x1080. i want to make an eyefinity setup wif 2 non-wide 1280x1024 monitor. gpu is 5850.

is this possible?

xfx 5770 ref cooler

Mine is reference card. So dont think I can help u on that >.<

I think multiple displays should be ok with that but you might not be able to activate that in game mode.... sorta read that somewhere...
