6990 specaroos leaked ![]() 6 TLFOPS! In a 300W package I'd be really impressed if they pulled it off. |

And a couple more, there are a fair number of slides I saw, but a lot of boring tech garble slides.

Dec 15th is apparently the day now, according to Fuad: http://fudzilla.com/graphics/item/21113-cayman-radeon-hd-6970-and-6950-launch-december-15th 450$ USD, sounds about right. Well I mean cheaper is better, but it's cheaper than the GTX580. http://fudzilla.com/graphics/item/21112-radeon-hd-6970-priced-at-$450 It's all from Fuad: to be taken with a heaping spoonful of salt. |

Looking at the blow pic it would seem that a 6970 is around 20% faster than a 480GTX. ![]() BUT OOOOOH I guess there is fugdery in the numbers: ![]() Fake fake fake fake, almost as bad as that 7xxx series slide with a release date of April 1st, 2011. |

If these are under $400 I will most likely pick one up and sell my 5850. I am expecting about 10% higher performance than a 480 but nowhere near 20% (unless we're lucky). Who else plans on getting out their wallets for this guy? |

we'll see. The 5850 is the best single card solution I have bought in a very long time if ever. It would take one mean card for a good price to get me to switch. |

And some official pix. Apparently comparable in size to a 5870 (which make sense, since it's the spiritual successor to the 5870). Wednesday is fun day!
