3850 prOn

SSXeon · Nov 10, 2007

Meh the benchmarks are whatever ill wait for final ones also. Tho this 2900XT looks like it will be gone for 2 of those dual slot 3870s.

Sadly CCC maxes out @ ONLY 885Mhz for the core, im expecting these to go higher.

So... Spoon did get banned. Huh?! Check out this bench of the 3870:

Yeah why did spoon get banned? Jethro took alot out of him, his rants pissed me off alot at rage3d, i had to take a vacation to a better ati friendly site to chill out.

Solaris17 · Nov 10, 2007

that's fackin sweet erocker

I can't wait to see the full review when he finishes on the 15th

Ashen is known best throughout tpu as a member who got seriously tired of how this place was run he then started threads bashing ppl and tpu but the biggest beef was tword the mods. he then got banned from tpu for what he did and started his own site to invite ppl from tpu who also were tired of how it was run.

EDIT:though i dont quite agree personally ashen was ok in my book until he started doing some of that like alec starr he was a good member.

O ok a fake ati fan? :slap:

Well you know i wont be one.

From prowling this site for a few years ive never seen mods that pissed me off if that has any consolation. :rockout:

Im on DH, rage, and XS.

Solaris17 · Nov 10, 2007

fake ati fan i dont get it

erocker · Nov 10, 2007

Wow, I can't believe I was right when I called him ash in that 8800gt thread. Bye Ash!

alec starr.

He was the most annoying person.... ever. "I have to CAPS random STUFF so that people have a SLIGHT CHANCE of listening to ME!" ... Glad those days are over!

Anyway, the fact that Ashen came back is pretty hilarious... I guess that should be taken as a compliment?

Oh yea, the topic... hmm... well, that's a shame it doesn't perform that much faster than the 2900XT. What's the price point on these things?

If he was just out to ge the mods the amount of posts he did wouldnt justify it. He faught with jethro a known nvidiot, and from what i saw it didnt look like he was just out to get the mods. Just all i was saying.

Well the 3870 at its low clocks will compete, but 55nm and less trannies doesnt mean low clocks.

drama...my goodness people...this is a tech forum, why can't we all just keep the drama to real life? lol

It's amazing how good people will go bad, I really liked Alec Starr.. he helped me out of many a bind.

Anyways, I do love this picks.. I can't wait to get a 3870!

I think the 3850 is gonna cool like dick. The 3870 has a dual slot cooler and only 10w higher power comsumtpion. Probably comes near 80C...

Incorrect. The HD3850 is 55nm and runs cooler than the X1950PRO. Same story with the HD3870, the card itself, uses more power for the memory however.
