2900pro review - TweakTown

or try this at a polish site Pclab reviews

but search for a Polish to English translator online cuz Altavista and Google don't do Polish.

the radeon x2900pro series is manufactured in limited numbers though
cuz by november 2950 series coming out

but hey, 2900pro can play dx 10.1
ahaha

yeah
since they are downclocked XT's or the XT's which failed the tests and rebatched...but still good food though
haha


i dunno why but since the x19xx series, ati card always makan banyak

wah lolhalol and ctskl on a verge there...
anyways, i never really stand on 3dmarks bench
cuz its always been the fact that the graphics cards makers (ati and nvidia) they pay futuremark to up the ante for their cards in this test and that test
this was reported i think a year or two ago

the same goes for games
like fear, it likes nvidia more
the same goes for oblivion
and as for half life 2, it likes ati

better bench on quake 4, far cry, lost planet (the best)
try ur cards on lost planet
that'll be the in thing

btw, 2950 pro is coming either november or the latest early december
tapi it still wont be that cheap
but price aint what we are concerned if the performance is really on par with its publications...what more with the DX10.1 and all
haha

well like i said 3dmark doesnt mean a thing cuz its synthetic tests

real world shows

not yet jual la
rileks
tunggu je
after raya or maybe end of oct, 2900pro will come out
few weeks later 2950 pulak

dudes
relax
everyone's a fanboy when it comes to nvidia vs ati thing
haha

anyways, u guys can read this
http://www.tomshardware.com/2007/10/01/the...oney/page6.html

they say that the 2900pro is so much bettter than 8800gts 320mb...
and its time to say that ati/amd is doing really well
what more with super stable ati drivers (except that they are power hungry but thats not what matters as long as u can play super games at super reso)
the 2900pro can and will compete with 8800gts 640mb and not the 320mb
read up everywhere
8800gts has the upper hand in synthetic benchies but real world still, it beats the 320mb at fsaa and aniso16x

if clocked well, i'd say that it cud go against the 8800gtx cuz the 2900xt relatively cud gain a foothold in 8800gtx realm and 2900pro can be clocked as high as 2900xt
hahahahaha

im not a fanboy and i dont intend to get any of those cards above
but i just love to see healthy competition
what more the 2900pro being scrap cards to begin with

oh yeah
u guys might also consider the x1650GT over the entry level 2600XT
this is out of topic but i've seen x1650gt went head to head with 1950pro
and it almost catches up...dah la DX10 and SM4.0 beb
even the 7600gt cud be ashamed

yeah...so for those who are into 128bit, go get the 1650gt
and stop yakking about the 8600/2600 crap...i will always say that the 8600/2600 = 7300LE or might even be the radeon X300SE

well
for framerates, the 2600 and the 8600 can handle them quite ok with aa, aniso and vsync off
but then again, rugi la the devs buat game tu kan if u only want to play it fast
i still remembered my friend won doom3 on ti4600
it was laggy and shitty and can run only at 800x600 with all settings off
to me rugi cuz u dont get the game

thats why gamers they chalk a lot of money for rams and gpu
cpu comes next and then mobo
haha

so 2900pro reigns supreme later on similarly with 2900gt
but i heard that nvidia's coming out with 8700 or sumting like that to give assurance before the nv90 cards come out
or maybe they slash the 8800gts 320mb to usd150-180
i dunno

whatever it is, for framerates, on those 128bit cards, get 8600 cuz at least they can survive on 2xaa and 2-4x aniso
2600XT ddr4 cant do that
they'll go from 30fps to 12fps when fsaa and aniso turned on

so u decide
haha

tsk tsk tsk..
never learn...
again will be on a wait and see position

overall those who buy the 2900pro are pure suckers...

wait for the RV670..sishh.

really dumb to buy this card .. when the RV670 around the corner..

and hello 320mb wins on synthetics benchmarks to the hd2900xt???? .. are u on drugs??

hd2900xt.. when it came out full of enthusiasm
then excuse.
driver problem
leakage etc
and till today driver driver driver...

nvidia camp... ppl are enjoying their cards...
go check the nvidia forum.. do u here anybody complaining about crashes etc..
and now a product that came like 1 year later wants to compete a 320mb that is going to be phased out..
and the worst part look at the ati cards..
saving so much in cost that the cooler looks like a piece of crap (other than asus who made it look better)
and HIS/GECUBE/SAPHIRE box is like a freaking cardbox... sishh yup never winter nights 2 on saphire cool.. my foot

[/quote]

yup yup
no need fanboyism here
ur a long timer here ctskl
u shud know better
pelik la...cant we all just stand in the middle in this forum?

we've seen reviews and this and that
if u think something is wrong somewhere, maybe u cud test the 2900pro first and make benchies later on
to me i dont really care what card's better now
im not getting them
its just fun to see all this coming up
why take it with all this heat? why call other people noobs and losers?
everything's about flaming this and bashing that...

now no offence dude but honestly, not many of us had the liberty to test this and that card of which u have tried
seriously

anyways, i'd still say 2900pro is a good card not because i love ati or that nvidia sucks all this while for not giving ati the chance to make a run for its money
its judicial notice...
period
yeah, in most reviews we've seen it losing to synthetic bench, and win in some, but do i care?
in real gaming, they already did the benchmarks and its proven good
what else can we conclude?
that they were paid by ATI?
yeah...if yes so what
and if the card is bad, so be it
our opinions does not mean anything to them manufacturers in any way
at least, the 128bit players can have a second opinion on whether to get 320mb, 640mb or the 2900pro based on what they read cuz its impossible to try all b4 deciding

yo hyde
the mobo already arrived
seriously nak call u susah nak mampos
anyways, will pasang the board at moderno's shop i think
ehehe

okay
back to our thing
i'd say i hope my fsp gx600gln can go crossfire this thing with my booster x3
hahahaha
900w of sweet mother of god power

2900pro is stated to consume power just like its brother the XT
but hey, if thats gonna gimme super reso, who the hell cares
plus bill elektrik tak naik sangat due to computering
mesin basuh lagi banyak makan

and rahat, i tot u dont wanna upgrade anymore till we graduate la

okay
gimme ur ym or msn
easy to contact

i wont be installing it myself
i wanna go moderno to clean my pentium dual core
in the meantime can ask him to check the mobo for me as well
trust the pro on a pro mobo
ahaha

hang on
what is ati overdrive?
i heard its available in the 1950pro already

oh yeah
not the 1950pro
the 2900xt
yeah
dats why it got 8pin
more power for more processing

haha
lets give it a little more time

its already said 2900pro wont last long
thats why the have revival and gladiator
but im sure its just a gimmick to keep all the ati fans sell their 2600xt's and get a better card

yeah
maybe it'll be like 7900gtx rite
hahaha
last time it was 2000+
now only rm900 at least if first hand (if available la)
maybe 8800ultra can reach rm1k later

demo coming out at 26th october
so sabar ye

anyways, boleh main DX9 la the game
but of course, the smoothness takde la
i wanna try play with both
ehehe

tu baru demo

he said that
haha
well that means he's propagating dual gpus
hahaha

oh well i went from 4800se, 5950 ultra than 7800gt to actually play that game at the maxest

bata the muscular IT guy around
ehehe

2900pro...all these
are they really worth it to get now?
what games je yang ade that can really need it?

dude
that is if u wanna overdrive or oc or crossfire
if using it single and at stock, biasa saja also ok
but dont use all those chapalang la like powerlogic magnum la, e-view, icute all those
malu la

i saw one mod worklog, beautifully done but psu is icute or acbel
malu la
