    R9 290/X AIB Cards

    Excellent news. I think I'll still wait for the reviews and maybe let them settle until the first week of January in case there are any issues.. I already have BF4 premium, so if it's bundled some lucky person is going to get my code for that one.

    Gigabyte Gtx 680 out in the wild.

    Brutal pricing. Probably exactly in line with the meager performance advantage (I'm still not 100% sold on this as fact either) over the 7970. I'm pretty sure the 7970 is going to trade blows with this is many very demanding benchmarks.

    [Kepler/GTX 680] Info's in... $400-450? + benches + thermals (56k warning)

    If true, that would would make a lot of difference. Especially with the extreme settings enabled. Funny that it says 4xAA Windowed though. Again, why are they running these tests at laptop lcd resolutions?!

    [Kepler/GTX 680] Info's in... $400-450? + benches + thermals (56k warning)

    Nothing seems very obvious anymore imo. I'm thinking it's going to be rather similar in performance to the 7970 and be priced as such.

    [Kepler/GTX 680] Info's in... $400-450? + benches + thermals (56k warning)

    I still can't believe a GTX680 is out in the wild and it ends up getting paired with an i3. Hilarious..

    [Kepler/GTX 680] Info's in... $400-450? + benches + thermals (56k warning)

    Well that's interesting isn't it. FX 6100 is not a powerhouse and still much stronger numbers. Maybe it's because the 680 really is only at 700 core here.

    Is an overclocked 7870 roughly on par with an overclocked 580?

    More anecdotal evidence, but I would say that a typical 7870's overclocking ability should easily overcome the performance difference with a GTX580 including when it is overclocked. Also to consider, from most reviews, the 7870 only tacks on like a 2c+ temperature even when heavily overclocked...

    From china forum.. kepler is Fast....!!

    Panties in knots.. Wait until the NDA is lifted and proper reviews are out before making a call. Sounds like a great card if the rumours are true. Not that I trust leaked benches from China. :S

    Radeon 7970 Crossfire Review

    Wow.. a lot of fanboyism here. It's almost like US politics really, in many ways I wish there were 4-5 choices as opposed to 2. Then we wouldn't have the crap-slinging we have here and a more unified game development strategies behind tools like DX11 and OpenGL and not primary focus being...

    27" iMac displayport Input

    Digging up an older thread, but is there still no success/cheap solution to hooking up a reference (standard display port) 5850 to one of these displays? Over at Macrumors a user posted this in late Oct. 2010: I don't really believe it, because I assume people would have tried the suggestion...
