X1950XT benchmarks leaked =D

[MarxSoccer]

ATi, or should I say AMD is back in the lead, pretty much owning the 7950GX2

Yeah, we company seems to get the lead and then the other.

They take turns...

Haha, well technically ATI is still ATI. Right now it's a branch of AMD.

As for the X1950 XTX benchmarks, ATI has just put nVIDIA and their much vaunted Quad SLI in it's place. Two X1950 XTX's in CrossFire can beat out two 7950 GX2's in Quad SLI in the majority of the benchmarks? You gotta love the power of GDDR4.

EDIT>>> As for the price of the X1950 XTX, expect it to be about $500. ATI just recently dropped the price on the X1900 series, most likely to create room for the X1950.

Wonder how Oblivion will run at 2560x1600 x8AF with a dual X1950XTX, Conroe X6800 and 4GB of 1066MHz 3-2-3-5 Ram... *Drools*

Estimations anyone?

 

[Fisher]

i estimate it will be very very nice

 

[alvino]

Oh man...I could kill for a computer like that.

This will still probably run oblivion at like 50FPS if you're outside...
