The Taiwanese team of Tom's Hardware revealed several confidential (no more) slides pertaining to the AMD R700 product line, exposing details of the product codenamed "Spartan". It's now confirmed that it comes with a total of 2 GB of GDDR5 memory spanning across sixteen 1 Gb chips.

The picture is that of the HD4870 X2 itself in an angle never pictured before:


The first slide shows certain details about the R700 "Spartan", the GPU core speed isn't disclosed yet. Crucial bits: 32Mx32 GDDR5, driver version 8.52 or later, deviceID: 0x9441.


The second one reveals the card's video-related features. It is supportive of DisplayPort, AIBs may choose to add it in their non-reference designs.


Here's the slide which shows it has 2x the performance/watt compared to 'previous generation', R680:


Some more product details, a bit on its anti-aliasing features:


A concise list of features:


And finally, system-requirements. They recommend at least a 650W PSU. A power-user wouldn't take it literally, they are just making sure that even the worst-quality PSU out there with wonderful wattage printed on the stickers could be able to run it. A good quality PSU with anywhere between 35~40A on the +12V should be able to handle a single card with a 95W CPU and two HDDs in place:

I'm pretty sure it got posted that the 4870X2 is 11inches long. Not sure about that of the 8800GTX.

Being that long, wont the PCB bend? My 3870 is ever so slightly bending towards the PCI-E power connector.

I'm suprised they haven't labeled a 64 bit OS as recommended in the system specs. Even for crossfire you think they would mention it.

I wonder what would actually happen if you installed two 4870X2's and tried to boot XP or vista 32...?

looks pretty sick. I really hope heat isnt an issue as there isnt much you can do for aftermarket cooling (unless you go with liquid) :/

As long as the fan speed works in the bios and you have good airflow in your case it should be fine. It is mentioned in the specs to have good airflow.

I'm gonna have a 120mm fan blowing at it from the front of the case, and my case has air holes in the bottom, so it should be good to go. One thing I like about the UK is that it isnt the hottest place on the planet. :D .
