Radeon HD 3870 or XFX8800GT.......????

omagic · May 15th, 2008, 01:42 PM

Because Nvidia wouldn sell out

THey are too big and Ati had serius financial problems. Anyway Ati 3870 is very good card like I said before I would choose 8800GT but to me performace comes on 1st place... As for AMD buying ATI changed 1 thing Radeons are now powerfull on paper and little dissapointing in practice but i guess this is what AMD is best in... I know now saikamaldoss will paste another brossure of AMD fanboy site or something like that but lets just stay up with facts instead of posting some marketing texts. You may say im AMD hater but im not i just feel dissapointed with their CPU's. And yes Q6600 beats Phenom 9600 and thats a fact another one is Q6600 is OLD model newer ones are 45nm and are cooler and faster not to mension less powerconsuming than any Phenom!! THats a fact and none of technical bull**** will change it.

Just choose q6600 and compare to any AMD even Phenom 9700

AMD phenom is hope less... but wait.... AMD is not.... they provide better technology

AMD always want to make sensible things than horse power............

yes they do make mistakes... but they will be back on top soon... sooner than u think... for a simple reason... Intel India is the one responsible for all the good processors they have for now.....

AMD is also moving their R&D to India to use some Indian ma-sa-la....

So they will come-up with some real good techno ...........

Just like Rambus Bangalore(INDIA) did with XDR......

So lets see what happens... lol

U hate AMD.... dont u......... G o G

I agree that ATI has better technology than Nvidia and everyone knows that, but somehow they cant get it on top. AMD used to have better techs than Intel but right now AThlon X2 and Phenom are 2 YEARS BEHIND INTEL!!!! Even Core2Duo not to say about 45nm ones... I also hope AMD would think of something but right now they are losing almost every battle... DO I hate AMD ?? LOL NO! Since now i had: Athlon 500MHZ, Athlon XP 1600+, 2400+ , 2600+, Athlon64 3000+, 3200+, 3800+, Athlon X2 6000+, Intel E8400(NOW) and Im simply DISSAPOINTED with AMD performance right now.

If anyone is about my age , He should remember how Rambus "helped" Intel... They recovered for 4 years to do something on they own that worked fine at last... Rambus made one of most useless memory standard that was use to be hit, but it turned to be sh**. so Wait and dont get to horny about them helping AMD ;-) I just wonder how will some people feel about that - after Rambus memory based systems turned to be 2% faster than DDR 333MHz and 2,5xmore expensive + next Intel series went ONLY to DDR platforms, and then many people turned their back and bought AMD CPU's it was best time for AMD and I wonder what will these people say now knowing that Rambus is comming to "help" AMD ;-) I bet they are very happy ;-)

And the bigges AMD mistake was leaving socket 939 and going for AM2.

Do u know the new news... lol

XDR2 is the fastest ram in the world now.... and Toshiba... is going to use that in there laptop........ lol...

XDDR2 is even faster than DDR8... if it is available..... And AMD is having a deal with Samsung and rambus to develop a GPU/CPU with Rambus BUSS and Samsung ram onboard.....

Don't ask me where i am getting all the news from..... lol

saikamaldoss · May 16th, 2008, 09:51 PM

what ever it is.... i am going to wait for 4870... I was using a 690G and the IGP sks....

So i bought a Gigabyte 780G and its good... to play CRYSIS @ 1024x768 Low settings @ 14-17FPS.....

I will have to live with it for a month...

Radeon HD 4850 coming June 18

&

Radeon HD 4870 coming June 25

I actually have some old RAMBUS here in a drawer that was used in an old ABIT motherboard. It WAS good in the day.

IT was faster than SDR but waaay to expensive. Anyway DDR is the standard right now and thats a fact
