Could be, I have not heard much about a launch date yet. You never know what either company will pull these days.
Semi Accurate (so grain of salt) is saying Paper in November, Silicon in 2011.

How is that even possible? With 64 ALU SIMDs that's 17.5 SIMDs
I told my friend to wait to buy his gpu (he was going to buy a 5830 last week). What should I tell him at this point? I think he should get the 5850 if it drops or the 6850 if it doesn't, but I'm not so sure.
6850 is likely going to be the card to buy.
Here's my theory on why the groups are odd but they still are grouped by 4
None of the cards are the full thing
320 x 4 = 1280 (6890???)
280 x 4 = 1120 (6870)
240 x 4 = 960 (6850)
I'm willing to bet they are leaving breathing room to fill in gaps if they have to with the full version of the card
I'm no expert in video cards or all the jargon I keep reading from you guys, but that would seem like a likely scenario for me if they wanted to spread and fill holes including having a response to anything Nvidia would come out with like a 465 or something alike.
And I wouldn't be surprised that they'd do the same thing with Cayman.
It's the 18th. Hell it's almost the 19th. I miss anything?

obviously the fact that the 22nd is the day to be concerned about...It's the 18th. Hell it's almost the 19th. I miss anything?
because there will always be people that have not read the thread or kept up. why should we have to explain what is going on to every one of those people? if they were really interested then they would already know exactly what is going on since every site has been talking about the 22nd for over a week now.How about just telling him (and others, i'm sure he's not alone) what he missed instead of asking him to read through 420 replies?
good to see that tech sites have the cards and are reviewing them.

If you don't want to repeat the information then don't, but replying to make it a point that you're not going to repeat the information takes more keystrokes than simply answering the question. So it actually took you more effort to be useless than it would have to help someone out.
funny how that works huh....
The NDA for performance tests expires on Friday the 22nd so if you're not interested in specs there won't be much for you to look at.
The Asia-Pacific event is currently underway as you read this. Here is the schedule for today:
It is 10:57AM in Taipei, Taiwan time so that presentation is yet to happen. Once it is over give it a few hours for information leaks to trickle out. But don't expect to see any official reviews with performance tests from reputable sites before the 22nd (that doesn't mean other sites hungry for clicks won't jump the gun).
the POINT was doing that for every uninformed person that pops in a thread is silly. if you CARE then read the thread and get the info like the rest of us did. not to mention that I DID tell him the date right here on this page...You don't HAVE to do anything. Clearly, the concept that some people may have a genuine interest in this, but don't have the time to keep up with the lastest news has escaped you. The 18th, 19th and 22nd are dates that have been and still are being thrown around, so it's hardly as cut and dry as one might like.

yeah everybody that gets tired of lazy individuals must be a troll...I think the simplest response to Ramon would have just been "don't feed the trolls".
First leaked benchmarks 6850/6870. From Dirt2 and Battleforge benchmarks: Barts > GT 460 in DX11

I posted the Dirt2 benches several hours before their article went up lol.

Just making sure all the "GT 460 is the best card evar fanbois" don't miss it.
