Yeah, that makes sense. Probably similar to what im doing too, i plan a board/cpu upgrade in a few months, and by the time BF3 is out, we should know what the 28nm cards will be like.
Well, that's what you get for not living in America. HAHA, no, but can you imagine if I said that seriously?
+1 same here , after seen the HUGE pricetag of $800US Dollars + Tax + shipping and handling = around $840~$850Us Dollars for one card :wanker: , i will stick to my 2x HD6950 Unlocked to HD6970 since they might be faster than the upcoming overpriced GTX 590 , those low clocks and the hefty price tag put me off from buying this card :/ , with those low , very low clocks i suspect there is low overclockablity on this cards due to heat and power.
i have to say the 590 is definitely not worth its price tag. Can easily buy 2 580's for almost the same price and you will see better performance from them.
GPU are getting way to expensive special considering 90% of all games will never use its full power considering the amount of pc games these days that piss poor console ports
Not as was the Mars, but only Evga and Asus will sell the card ( USA and Europe, Asia is another story ), and yes the availability will be really limited ( some said 1000 pieces ), but nothing yet is confirmed, let's wait the 24th for know more about it.
That's just the usual ASUS thing, i have that log on my GTX480 (got it today for £185, not bad IMO), it simply means you can tweak the voltage on the card to get "up to" a 50% performance boost.
Tbh i could easily live with these 295's ive had them since day 1 and tbh as performance wise i can play anything i want at 60fps,only reason im upgrading is cause im bored tbh,who knows i may change may mind,depends on the reviews tbh
it seems that the asus evga rumor is fake MSI 590 http://cdn2.techbang.com.tw/posts/5...the-fastest-graphics-card-msi-n590gtx-p3d3gd5 core clock is 840MHz (nvidia changed the core clock or is this soc version? ) i think the 1000 units rumor is fake too.
Translated by google MSI launched the fastest in the history of performance, single-card dual-core N590GTX-P3D3GD5, equipped with two 40-nm core GeForce GTX 500 chipsets, with up to 1024's CUDA cores and 768bits of 3GB GDDR5 memory. In addition, the MSI N590GTX-P3D3GD5 a single card to run NVIDIA 3DVision Surround technology, graphics card, so that players only use one N590GTX-P3D3GD5 graphics card can output the three screens, enjoy 3D animated three-dimensional video games, is definitely top choice for gamers doomed to failure! Double single card dual-core performance MSI N590GTX-P3D3GD5 uses advanced 40-nanometer manufacturing process to create the core GeForce GTX 500 chipsets, with up to 1024 (512units x2) stars in the CUDA kernel, and then carry 768bits (384bits x2) 3GB GDDR5 high speed memory, is the world's fastest display card. Also supports NVIDIA Quad SLI technology, dual-card operation of the absolute limits of performance for enthusiasts to meet the requirements of! Support performance improvement over 38% of the voltage function In addition to basic fan speed control and burn-in testing, MSI N590GTX-P3D3GD5 supports Afterburner super voltage function, pressurized by a 607MHz core clock setting raised to 840MHz, an increase of up to 38% overclocking potential, and then with the advanced graphics technology game , gives players more smooth gaming experience.
ah i c. seems like OC model. if they OC like this from distributors then its pretty good overcloker dont you guys think? assuming this is real of course
TBH, if i were to buy video cards right now it would be 2 6950's unlocked to 6970 which = a 6990, and for a pricetag of only $480.
whens the last time you've used an ati/amd card honestly? since 4870x2 i havent had driver issues. And before you think im bias, i had ati 4870x2 > nvidia > now 6950/70 and havent had any real issues with either camp. Both aren't perfect but neither are bad enough to not go with the better price/perf card.
