_JP_They are DisplayPorts.
Not very used and known, because most screens nowadays don't support the connector.

vMGIt's meant for Apple products.

crazyeyesreaperuh last i checked the 4890 runs with the gtx 275 which = the 280 so a 4890 isnt really fail since for most part in that generation all ati cards were cheaper then there nvidia counterparts and oh yea i still love the $330 price tag on the 285 when the 5850 was $259 on release eitherway more on topic pic looks intresting i prefer the black and red with no stupid stickers

btarunrStick to the topic, people.

cheezburgerthe only moment hd 4890 had chance to walk side with gtx 275 was on unreal 3 engine as there won't be any game engine would take advantage on r600 art.... i dont need to mention the rest of result as you all know what's coming. go look hd 4890 bench on anandtech and tom's hardware first they will give you more detail how failure r600 art was like. oh hd 4890 may be cheap but it is mid stream card and mid range card SUPPOSE to be cheap(150~229 for mid range), but amd just over priced it($299). :shadedshu

source material now go read a real GPU review all of the above use different game engines and whats this at low res the 4890 is slower but at higher res oh wait it trades blows with the 275 280 and 285

KainXSjust give it up, he's in his own world, mr 128 rops on a 512bit bus

there are rumors that AMD will redesign the SP's for more performance

the Sp's on the 2XXX-5XXX series

the Sp's on the 6XXX series

the 6 series will probably have more Sp's also

Edit

oops didn't see your post erocker sry

erockerSo delete your post then? You added pictures after you say "oops?" Please stop.

crazyeyesreaperlol i smell nvidia fanboy here lets face it the green team was late there still late they wont compete till 28nm the 6000 series gives ati the lead for another year meaning 2 years where ATi now AMD has been top dog in terms of GPUs you can spin it however you want it dosent change the fact even the stripped down gtx460 for gaming STILL consumes more power then a 5850 and close to a 5870 but is 20-40% slower in single card configs and the 480 while being the fastest single gpu card is still only 2nd fastest in terms of single card overall

and you seem to like talking about r 600 and r 300 what about the g92 lol been in use for nearly 4 years with no re improvement where as ati has scaled there design to offer better performance you can argue your points all you want because fact is the biggest baddest gpu nvidia had which was the 512 shader gtx 480 was only 5% faster then the 480 shader current high end both companies have room for improvement. and how is the r600 design pathetic? last i checked the 5850 5870 and 5970 are highly competitive compared to nvidias offerings and in general use nearly 35-40% less power to do so and if its truly fail then why did Nvidia lose so much market share to this pathetic design?

mastrdrverActually are they not mini display ports?

If so you'd need an adapter to even use a normal display port on a monitor.

cadaveca6 phase gpu power, 2-phase mem?

cheezburgerlarger bus require more pin on the bga board that contain gpu. indeed but it doesn't really give any further die increase and nothing to do with die/wafer. just the board become more complex and more layer for pcb board and increase size of gpu footprint, but not die size.

then remove some unnecessary design such as 5D shader and stop adding more shader like what they did in r700...they were wasted far more die space by putting these additional float point feature

r600's massive shader architecture was one of worst way to improve performance.

largonHuh? The added shaders made up majority of the performance increase we saw in RV670->RV770.

cadavecaBased on tsting I've been doing recently, I really think they need to lower shader numbers, and make the actual shaders MORE complex. .

cadavecaBased on tsting I've been doing recently, I really think they need to lower shader numbers, and make the actual shaders MORE complex. The "Ultra-Threaded" nature of ATi's design is TOO THREADED...so they need to deal with that in some way. those pics up above seem to say that same thing, and that makes me quite happy.

However, if they launch without Bulldozer...:banghead:\

I really don't want to see 6870 yet. I do not have confidence that thet rest of the market is ready for this chip. ATi wants to spank nV...but I tihnk they are just seeing RED.
