At first I thought R680 and HD3870x2 isn't related but I wrong. Hope that single of these cards works on any motherboard, not just CrossFire motherboard

QUOTE(sukhoi37 @ Jan 6 2008, 09:03 PM) should not be a problem as long as your mobo does have a pcie slot. ahaha...yep. can't wait to see the performance. normal casing for this card is headache though. I have being holding my purchase on gf to see how this perform. weird though, still no visible news on the release. |

This card will rule.
I'm pretty much sure that the MSRP will be 350USD (100USD below 9800GX2). Yet it's a force to be reckoned with, I might have to laugh at whoever bought 8800GTSes or even 8800GTs at super marked up prices. That means the price will be about the same as 8800GTS 512MB, but performance will be same/better, even in AA. |

QUOTE(X.E.D @ Jan 6 2008, 10:12 PM) This card will rule. wrong.. right now you can find 88gt and 88gts selling below their msrp...I'm pretty much sure that the MSRP will be 350USD (100USD below 9800GX2).

That means the price will be about the same as 8800GTS 512MB, but performance will be same/better, even in AA. but if the rumours are correct, the 9800gx2 will only use g92 chips.. which means that it's not next-gen yet and the r680 card will have 2 x rv670 chips.. well, from my point of view, current g80 8800 and 29xt users will not view the r680 and 9800gx2 as a very substantial upgrade.. btw, im skipping g92s, rv670, r680 for the real next gen cards -> r700 and g100 |
