ATI equivalent to GTX 260 SLI

[Tanveer Joshi]

I was wondering if an over locked 5850 or 5870 is capable to competition or beat the presentation of GTX 260s in SLI on standard (I to be familiar with there are a number of nvidia optimized games that break this rule here and there). I do not imagine I have seen a review site evaluate the two setups, so I was wondering if anybody here has several superior opinions on the two. On the whole, when I upgrade my video card. I similar to to get approximately twice my preceding card's presentation (plus or minus 15% or so, I am not picky).

The SLI 260's determine to be to some extent faster than a solitary 5870 at stock. The 5750 is to some extent slower than GTX260 and the 5770 is to some extent faster than GTX260. And CF scales to some extent better in addition, so it is approximately a tie there. Your graph has the 260(216) faster than the 5770. I imagine a 5850 or 5870 might make available a extremely modest modify from Sli'ed GTX260's.

The 295 would have additional SP's although. So you imagine the 295 would be to some extent faster or regarding even. It was told that your GTX260's were regarding the similar presentation grade as a 5870. To some extent superior in some games you would after say you imagine the 5870 being a solitary card would run superior in the majority of games.

If you compare it to the HD 4800 series commence, AMD’s commence of the HD 5800 series at the moment is going to drop into the latter grouping. There are no last-minute declarations or pricing games, or NDAs that get rolled back without warning. Today’s commence is regarding as standard as an innovative GPU launch be able to get. On the other hand with the lack of last-minute surprises, it becomes harder to maintain things under wraps. When details of a product commence is announced well ahead of time, inevitably someone on the inside cannot help but leak the details of what’s going on. The consequence is that what you have to discuss today is not going to come as a great surprise for a number of you.

The organizer of the Evergreen ancestors is the Radeon HD 5870, which determine to be AMD’s innovative powerhouse card. The 5870 characteristics 1600 stream processors divided in the middle of 20 SIMDs, 80 texture units, and 32 ROPs, with 1GB of GDDR5 on-board associated to a 256bit memory bus. The 5870 is clocked at 850MHz for the core clock and 1.2GHz (4.8GHz effectual) for the memory, giving it a maximum calculates presentation of 2.72 teraflops.

The two 5800 sequence products are segmented in the high-end variety and as such do come with a moderately spicy price tag making the entire the innovative characteristics out of reach for a lot of people. The ATI is going to address that at the moment previously with the releases of series 5700 graphics cards. Two products determine to be releases in the mid-range section. On the other hand, they determine to be stacked and loaded with accurately the similar characteristics as the 5800 series, yet their presentation is cut-down and perceptibly in return, the pricing has been made much additional attractive.

The buzz for sequence 5000. Well, ATI has been focusing on three most important characteristics and key selling points for the sequence 5000 products. First off, the innovative graphics adapters are of itinerary DirectX 11 ready. With Windows 7 and Vista being DX11 organized the entire you necessitate are a number of games to take benefit of DirectCompute, multi-threading, Hardware Tessellation and the innovative shader 5.0 extensions. The DX11 is going to be superior.
