I think proc AMD only concentrate on business.From what i HEAR Opterons are better than Xeon Eh??
But if AMD dont buy ATi too,we might dont have such price like now.HD4850 RM 700..If AMD no have maybe price like 9800GTX edy doh.gif

Woah..4870 X2 requires 1 6 pin and 1 8 pin
So i think can.
Becos most 1000W PSU comes with 4~6 PCI-E Connectors.

As were told by AMD,they focused on mainstream instead of high end like nVidia.

Interesting 1GB is same price as GTX280 drool.gif
the 2GB around RM 1600 only.RM 100 diff lor.
GDDR3,GDDR4,GDDR 5.I think its the AIB will choose it.From what i hear,the AIB can choose 1GB or 2GB version AND GDDR3 and GDDR5.I wonder why they skip GDDR4 doh.gif

Lolz
But before ATi prices IINM 1900XT 2k?

I hope the release of 4870X2,there will be a price cut.Becos
Since the 1GB X2 499 only so at least the 512MB version(HD4870,Non Dual)should be $250 lor?To Balance it?
$250X2 =500?
So..

Better wait 4870X2.I dont know why,maybe save space AND more airflow?Becos if CF,your another card might block it so the airflow will...
