What the f**k.The 5800's just came the f**k out and now ATI/AMD is taking about putting out the 5900's.This is making me really hate computers anymore.I mean dam i know technolgy has to move on.But god dam give my s**t some time to get used before you start putting out new s**t.Knowing dam right well most of us are gonna dump our old stuff for this new stuff.It just getting to be really f**ked up.The 4890 just came out 3 months ago

I f**kin new it would not be long before you went on a f**king killing spree Tom in that new 4x4....please please wait till Nov 13th before you start so I can watch the car chase on the freeway live in the U.S....Please!!!

I mean the i7's are only out and they f**k us and bring out the i5......hehe

Oh come on guys like no one knew this was going to happen...

The 59xx series cards are just what we all thought were going to be called 58xx X2.

yeah we all knew it but god dam give the 5800 5 months atleast..

no one said you can't run a 5800 for 5 months then upgrade to a 5900 series card. See good things come to those who don't have the cash to jump on a new cards on release day... er... I mean those who wait.

I guess AMD is just loving this right now.Stomping poor old Nvidia into the mud

I never ever liked nvidia they suck as.s BIG TIME....ATi FTW!

All I give a s**t about is that the 5870x2 / 5900 whatever the f**k is a single PCB GPU and is out before the end of November.

How much is this going to cost though? A f**kin' lot, I'll tell you that. The HD5870 costs enough already, much more than I would spend on a card.

I say bring it on! hopefully the 59xx cards have 2GB of memory per GPU... If they do I'm so buying one.

They'll prolly top out at 5970 x2/5980 x2 and 5980 as a standalone card.

nvidia prolly have the usual 360-395gtx range

True. They should cut the price down on the 58xx series to make it worthwhile.

I wouldn't expect too many price cuts until nVidia starts shipping "fermi" parts in volume... AMD has a monopoly on DX11 hardware right now so they set the price where they want to not where market forces put them.

AMD is just taking advantage of Nvidia's lack of innovation by stealing as much marketshare as they can while they can. It is just a matter of time before Nvidia is back on top again (though it seems like it has been a while).

AMD is still in a s**t load of debt so good for them to be on the lead. But Nvidia still hasn't responded so this gets more interesting by the article.

Im not sure sure nvidia can top this atm.Arent they having problems with the fab process of the 45nm or 40nm chips?

Its more and more likely that it will be late Q1 2010 that Nvidia will have the DX11 cards, but I bet you you will see all the old stuff coimg out badged as new...like the Asus Mars card (dual 285's) that is about 15% then the 295....that could be thrown out as a stop gap etc...

As bungle said I dont give a f**k how much the 5870 x2 is along as its a single PCB I am having it, and sellin my 295. If not out I am getting a 5870 as it will only cost me half the price getting it in the U.S with the exchange rate.

I think im gonna wait til 5900 comes out.Hey i already had a 5900 only it was a BFG 5900 128mb flashed to a 5950...lol.Man i loved that card,buts thats another story..Im thinking about jumping ship and climbing aboard the AMD/ATI graphic's bandwagon

I really hope they up the size of the frame buffer... Tweaking the graphics settings in GTA IV with its memory usage meter has shown me that I need 2GB of VRAM (per GPU that is )

Heres to buying overpriced computer parts with reckless abandon! *raises glass*

The sad part is the hardest game you will have to run is still going to be Crysis! It almost makes having one of these new cards worthless at the moment. What good PC games are out or are coming out? I've been just playing the s**t of out PS3 because there's not one single PC game that interests me.
