isnt it 9800gx2 the high end card for nvidia 9 series?
i thought that 3870x2 means to beat nvidia 8 series high end card and also an experiment for ati high end r700 series  so lets wait for the real match between ati r700 high end vs nvidia 9800gx2  |

R700 suppose to VS Nvidia GT200 which is 9800GTX i thought that 3870x2 means to beat nvidia 8 series high end card and also an experiment for ati high end r700 series so lets wait for the real match between ati r700 high end vs nvidia 9800gx2   for this i'm not so sure who will win coz Ati's R700 have 2 Gpu in one die same as Dual core CPU and for the Nvidia they are only using one single core~~ no idea who will win~ unfortunately all Next gen Nvidia cards do not support DX10.1 and SM 4.1 http://www.fudzilla.com/index.php?option=c...d=5081&Itemid=1 This post has been edited by Ezonizs: Jan 11 2008, 01:30 PM |

QUOTE(Ezonizs @ Jan 11 2008, 11:55 AM) 3870 X2 lose to 9800GX2 yeah !!~~ maybe cheaper then RV680 also It's onli a prediction only, no proper review or comparison  CES 2008: Faster chips We said this back in 2007 but let us be clear on one thing. Nvidia's upcoming high end sandwich board, Geforce 9800 GX2 is going to end up faster than a single Radeon 3870 GX2. This comes as no surprise as Nvidia's single G92 is faster than a single RV670 and in the same matter a dual chip Nvidia beats ATI. Radeon 3870 X2 will be very competition as its single chip brother was but it is still a bit slower compared to Nvidia. We still believe hat Radeon 3870 X2 will have quite good sales as it will be significantly cooler than Nvidia's card and it will be available in massive numbers http://www.fudzilla.com/index.php?option=c...d=5082&Itemid=1  . The design of NVidia's sandwich board with G92 core will onli pack more heat  . |
