WOW, that's cool. I've been curious to the specs etc. on this card.

Nice, crunch time is upon us.

Thanks for the news, W1z. Hopefully this will put an end to some of the speculation that has so plagued this launch. :toast:

10:00 PM EEST for me, about 8 hours to wait :wtf:

can't wait. i am looking forward to seeing some good reviews!

Crossfire review below, looks OK but still cant compete with the GTX280 when in xfire, AA/AF has improved dramatically with the new ATI cards :toast: looks to be an excellent card, more so if you xfire two of them, if the price is right, they should sell plenty.

wow!

if the 4850 CF almost beat gtx280 i think 4870 CF will destroy it and a single card will be a match to 260

nice from AMD-ATI so they'll survive and we'll have competition at least in gpu market...


this is a good move from AMD they killing Nvidia launch

drivers can also mature by time, the 4850 sells for around 1440 nok here in norway
komplett.com got it in some of their etail store's, in norway, sweden and danmark

i think AMD did the right thing, and the 4850 looks great, as you can see the price is around the level of 3850 when it was first released

ATI is :nutkick: NVIDIA

omg updated to have only one hour left

I can't wait to read your review. This is going to be very interesting.

see thats not nice to tell me i have work in 10 hours and i havn't been to bed yet, wizz your acting like my GF right now, teasing me with something i have to wait on till later, not cool man :P

Are you doing a preview? Right now TUL seems to be the only partner selling these cards.

Great now I'll selll my 8800GT and jump back on the ATi band wagon.
Actually on my X1950pro right now, since another one has died on me and getting a RMA.
Thats three in total.
Loved the performance but the longevity is a bit short for my liking.

:cry: I want my 4870 :cry:

Some legit spec's and reviews would be nice, though :D

Waiting with baited breath!

::drool:: This is historic. Well not really, Im just itching to see what the 4850 can do. Cant wait for the 4870s.

nice! for 400$ its almost as fast as the gtx280... I'm sure 3 of them will dust it, for the same price!

Wow great news, cant wait to see what they can do. Eagerly awaiting the review to be posted on TPU! :D
