AMD shows off Radeon HD 3870 X2

Dang.....kingmaker_20's new bulk selling at:

HD3850 = RM665

HD3870 = RM879

The price is damn tempting....

I don't think so we'll have the $219 pricing as it is for US region.Most stuffs will sell at higher price here maybe due to transportation charge.

Reminder : Do not ever compare pricing with USA online store especially Newegg.They take like 500 unit of stocks.Comparing price with Newegg isn't a good choice.In addition,there isn't any single online store in USa have stocks for HD3870.Price will be jacked-up once it's in stock after a long time it's Out Of Stock.That's what always happen in Newegg.

STILL planning to go ATI? 

For the next gen GC wars, I'll gladly buy real life and STFU foreva. 

dunno its worth to get or not??
ATi still haunted by 8800GTX.. zzZZzz

Multi-GPU Scaling: Two 3850s = One 8800 GTX?   

compared to price, sure GTX still expensive marr
but what ive been thinking are about ATi newest tech also aint much improve as GTX still stand strong

ATI Set to Launch Offensive with ATI Radeon HD 3000 Pricing.
ATI Radeon HD 3000 Has Enough Pricing Flexibility - Sources

ATI, graphics product group of Advanced Micro Devices, may lower the pricing of its ATI Radeon HD 3000-series graphics processing units (GPUs) in weeks after the introduction in an attempt to recapture the lost market share from the No. 1 discrete GPU supplier Nvidia Corp. The decision will allow add-in board manufacturers to decrease the prices to end-users.

"Two weeks after the launch, the ATI RV670 drops the price," a source familiar with the matter told X-bit labs.

The ATI Radeon HD 3850 with 256MB of GDDR3 memory begins at $179 manufactured suggested retail price (MSRP) and the ATI Radeon HD 3870 with 512MB GDDR4 memory from $219 MSRP, available from AMD's selected graphics products partners. Unfortunately, not all suppliers of graphics cards could get the new boards on time from AMD.

Price reduction of the already not very expensive ATI Radeon HD 3800-series boards is likely to help AMD to capture attention of many end-users seeking for a new high-performance graphics cards for Christmas. Since the new lineup of graphics solutions support both DirectX 10.1 and high-definition video playback, the features demanded by end-users this year, the novelties truly have chances to become popular this holiday season.
