AMD lets us spend some time with an R700 - yes that means the dual-GPU RV770
card is nearly here! This is not the official launch yet, but the card is
just around the corner and AMD was excited to show off its performance. It
looks like the GTX 280's reign was short and sweet...

Quote: "While it is hard to get a complete outlook of AMD's new Radeon HD
4870 X2 1GB card with three games and some 3DMark Vantage numbers, our
initial outlook for it is very, very good. If those idle power numbers can
be improved upon with the updated PowerPlay BIOS as AMD claims, it will be
very difficult to find weaknesses in AMD's new flagship product. The only
exception might be the scalability concerns we mentioned above - that's up
to AMD's software team to keep up with the PC titles as they arrive."

Thanks for a post!
