| Re: News - NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 295 makes an early appearance Hmm. So what will you be able to do with this card that you can't with a 4870 X2? Apart from swap it for a slightly newer second-hand car? |

but in the same vein, a 4870 has 800 whereas a GTX280 has 240.... and now which trumps which? it's irrelevant to just refer to shaders, it is the whole architecture. Clickys: Post Counts and Other Rewards, Rules, Folding@Home, Fans: Push vs Pull vs Push-Pull, Corsair PSU OEMs. What it means to be fully human is to strive to live by ideas and ideals And not to measure your life by what you've attained in terms of your desires but Those small moments of integrity, compassion, rationality... because in the end, the only way that we can measure the significance of our own lives Is by valuing the lives of others |

| Re: News - NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 295 makes an early appearance Originally Posted by sleepyhead Nope, not at all. In fact, i'm still not convinced by dual GPU solutions in their current form. When and if we see a dual-core GPU, with internal SLI (effectively) that doesn't require driver support to make games scale I think i'll be more convinced. Right now i've got nothing which doesn't run liquid smooth on my 280 at 1600x1200.
