Because the design is different.Its like a Dual Core.But not really Dual Core,as AMD said they might provide a REAL DUAL CORE GPU in R800.Not Dual Dies in 1 PCB, but 1 Dies, 1 PCB, but has 2 Cores in 1 Dies
It has some advantages thou..But only time predict it. cool.gif

Good news

The Radeon HD 4870 X2 (R700), the flagship graphics card by AMD is observed to have a lower than expected price-point that seems to justify its performance lead (through pre-release performance evaluations). Going by several reports in the past few months, the R700 was expected to have a US $549.99 launch price, at a time when the competitor NVIDIA was pricing their flagship product in that range. In the period between then and now, the price of the GeForce GTX 280 plummeted from $649.99 to $449.99 while still regarding $499.99 as the company standard price, with some stores and partners in the US selling for as low as $429.99, a huge lop of its original price.

P/S:Its the GTX 280 is stated to be as low as 429.99.Please dont mistaken yeah.So 1GB version should be around $ 420?

If scare the bill electricity rise,try editing the PowerPlay,means instead of lowering to just 500 only,why not lowering it 150/500 FOR IDLING MODE!

DAAMIT = AMDATi
Yup,AMD already tested it with 790FX.I thought 4870 X2 is capable of doing 4 way crossfire?
Its 4 cards X2
But AMD needs stabilize its driver,because its cannot unleash the Crossfire,maybe we can say the game too..
