Dude, GDDR4 NOT EQUAL TO DDR4

Change the title, it's misleading.

Technically signalling and interface different, but the prefetch is the same mah (which is what matters), although current JEDEC specs seem awfully the same on fundemental levels tongue.gif

dunno what price in Malaysia, but according to Guru3D.com...the card will be at USD399 drool.gif way too much cheaper than XTX n nVidia's 7950GX2 @USD600...direct calculation, USD399x3=RM1500± (whoah...nice price...)
but i'd still get X1950XT rather than XTX coz of the powerness brows.gif btw...X1950XT @full load...50dB doh.gif

GDDR 4 doesn't mean system RAM use DDR4 is ready for the market. Maybe in future end-user class machine will have FB-DIMM as server class.....

i wouldnt put it that way as the price will drop and demand for this card might go up and for those who longed to have an XTX in their rig....Crossfire it and u'll have more value over 2 1950xtx wink.gif

i tot the difference between GDDR4 and DDR4 is that GDDR4 works in blocks.. eg such as block writes/delete etc etc...

still can play, but just unable to experience the game to the fullest as new gpus are designed to work as a game computing processor rather than a game rendering processor alone. This would let the gpu act as a physics processor as well.

better get cheap card and wait for Dx10 card prices to stabilize. midrange Dx10 cards would pawn high end Dx9 cards soon.

It's impractical to compare dx9 and dx10 cards as they're from totally different series. It is seems to be more to a whole new product range itself.
