384 @ 820mhz from 336 @ 675mhz on the 460. That's a nice bump. If this card overclocks to 950mhz, it will give a stock GTX570 a run for the $$.

My thoughts exactly russian. This is going to be a very sweet card

thats going to be almost too close to the gtx570. also if it is still a 6:1 sp/tmu ratio then at 820mhz it is going to have much more texture fill rate than a gtx570 and even a bit more than a gtx580.

I just hope it's under 9 inches long

I wonder how they will handle the pricing.

This card is really going to put some pricing pressure on the entire high end lineup from both camps.

My guess is $250 for a 384 shader part, and $200 for a ~775mhz 334 shader part.

I doubt it, it will likely need a more complex PCB and a larger cooler.

Thats what she said. 🙂

Tax return = gtx560 🙂

I wouldn't bet on it, at least not the reference cards.

If its as close to the 570 as those specs imply for $100 less could be a killer card again.

well I believe the gtx460 is only 8.25 inches so its very likely the gtx560 could be under 9 inches.

If its going to be a super bang for the buck card like the GTX460 was I will be SLI'ing it

 

[Castiel]

I'm eyeing up two of them with my tax return

Same here, now. Was planning on either a single 570 or 6970 for the SB build initially.

Thankfully i cancelled my 460s order and cheaped out for this 6870. I smell 560's in SLI and Nvidia Surround in my future

I wonder if the memory bandwidth will hold it back against cards with 160GB/s+ of bandwidth.

I'm thinking it'll be as fast as the current 470 but run a lot cooler

Yeah 2560x1600 or 1920x1200 with 8x AA will probably give noticeable advantages to the hd6950. But 1920x1200 with 4x or lower and I bet this thing will end up on average within 5% of the hd6950.

Still rumored for a January release?


Looks good but if I see a 1GB 460 for $120 or less, I'll buy it (still on a 768MB version)

Out of curiosity, why did you opt to buy a 768MB card only to then go into the market for a 1GB card?

Mabe he paid 90$ for it? I seen one going for that.

I got the card for a good price (Asus version, sub $100 after selling the game). I didn't "go into the market", I'm aware of it though and have filters set up on slickdeals for lots of things I want. I'm generally happy with what I have (including my current 460) but would be willing to upgrade to better products if the price is right.

I'm usually not one to buy at launch knowing there is a good chance that six months later I might be able to catch a deal for half price. Doesn't work on everything but it totally works on videocards.

I know what you mean, I've been seeing some crazy deals right now and it's always tempting to bite. I just have to force myself to close the page and focus on spending money on the SB upgrades and SSD. Temptation to get a new card however is always very strong.

Especially with all that black PCB .... :sneaky:

This looks like the card for me, although I bet it won't be much of an overclocker.
