I probably will never afford one soon unfortunately, but who knows.

They eat Crysis for lunch. I punched up a particle test that is equal to Crysis at 2560x1600 and was getting 56.3 FPS with 4xAA. Mind you Crysis might be less, but still... that is just insanity.

i really hope so for Nvidia, because the HD4000 series seem to be very good as well.

I use 9800 GTX in SLI and they already had Crysis for lunch. (they're all vanilla cards, manually overclocked)
With no AA at 2560x1600, I hit stable 100+ FPS on stealth portions of the game and ~40-50 on heavy gunfights/explosions.

And this thread is old.

We know, Ad - it was bumped by a since-deleted porn spammer :/

Oh, most certainly. One of my buds out in the lab should be getting engineering samples from AMD in the next few days. He will let me know if they are a threat this time around (from what I can tell, they very well may be)

i think we'll soon find out however if i do have the money it's probably going to a new 280 just hope there aren't problems like those that where with both the 8/9 series of cards in games i play the most (ut2K4,freelancer and others)

Hehe - thank god for ATi. Without them, nVidia wouldn't be pushed to create such awesome cards!

Competitive markets ftw

Brianna · Jun 15, 2008, 08:48 AM // 08:48

Just imagine if the 280 had GDDR5.. I don't think that ATI card would have much on it then.

I wonder..

Then again, It is moronic to assume such just yet, we will have to find out.
