I don't see this being a green year at all and I'm sure ATI has been running hills since the cyprus release so hopefully we see some driver development and product developement continue from the red team.

WOnder if there's a new ati/nvidia kungfu youtube video out.

Hope you got a nuclear reactor running in your shed to power those beasties.

Amazing that a single 480 uses more power than 5870 crossfired DAMN

EDIT come to think of it.. that does not look quite right a single 5870 uses 50 more watts than a 5850? But a second 5870 only adds 50 watts? Either single 5870 wattage is wrong or the CFX is...

Hmm toms guide has an i7 oced to 4GHz, 6 gb ram etc etc running a single 5870 at 350W and 2 at 560! this one is wrong if 188W is the load rating of the 5870... but not very far off.. in efficient PSU could be issue...

EB Shows a stock i7 and 5870 at 270W load single card and 420W CFX


G3D says 376W just for the 2 cards (5870)... probably the most accurate... would should put it over a single 480 by about 80W

OMG those power curves are sex!!! this will be an ultimate test of best power supplies pardon my obsession of power supplies....

crossfire/sli has different effect versus single card runs...you won't see doubling power consumption..its normal...you'll always see an offset of cpu and other computer parts consumption in most curves...

but damn! 851w..........is that on a gulftown?

As the entire world knows, nVidia unveiled NV100 i.e. "Fermi" architecture on September 30, 2009. As it goes, nVidia's representatives were disclosing to press and analysts that the GeForce parts will see the light of day in November, Quadro to follow in April 2010 and Tesla launching in June, 2010. However, it took almost six months from Jen-Hsun's keynote for the first product to reach our hands, and it will take another two weeks to reach global markets
