Unconfirmed: Radeon HD 4870 Beats GeForce 9800 GX2 By 25 percent - MegaGames hardware

if thats true, thats awesome.
I mean in all honesty, nvidia is really about to screw consumers. With the small increase in performance for price of the 9800 series, and likewise with the 9900 series, it looks like nvidia's lead might be over soon enough. Especially because the unreleased 9900's seem to be only a touch better than the g92 cards.

The only improvement we'll see in nvidia cards to my knowledge will be the g200 core, and at the moment that's only speculation.

Thoughts?

Well, it looks promising, but, I still have along time to wait, for a sufficent amount of reviews for both cards head to head.

I moved this to correct forum as well.

Oh those are the same graphs and info already posted by someone.. Just look at the previous threads. Ok maybe not this forum.

is that the 4870x2 or just the single gpu version? and also its unconfirmed so that tells us something....

 

[gurusan]

yeah im pretty sure these benchies are BS.

I'm very hopeful though.

 

[Wildside]

it's the HD 4870, not x2.

 

[Peter.Cort]

honestly.. if this card can come out under 300 I'm totally going to buy one. No doubt. I'd love to have one. if these benchies are almost true.
