Of course, 64 of those silly little cores all ganging up might be a little threatening to the status quo

Anyone else waiting up tonight for the cards to start showing up at retailers? Newegg should have them by 3 AM EC Time, so I'm gonna get up early tomorrow morning and see if I can snag one.

Nice. I'm stepping down from dual 4890's just to upgrade, so it looks like only a 5850 for me...Sort sucks because the performance will only be about the same at best in Dx9 and Dx10. Good news is that the card is 40nm, shorter, runs cooler, and has Dx11 and Eyefinity...so I cant really be upset.
I might just wait a few weeks though because I doubt I'll be fast enough to pull the trigger in a few hours from now.

I agree, man I feel like its xmas already!
They probably wont be able to keep up with demand, so xmas is probably when ill be getting one
Hopefully they can pump em out!
Just one of those cards will look at my puny q66 and laugh at me for even trying..

It is? Lol. the HD5870 is compared to the 295GTX for a reason.. The HD5850 is more comparable to the 285 it seems, going off those, hence why they compared them.. In higher res's with AA and AF the ATI cards seem to storm ahead. So we'll see how things turn out when its all properly done..
Maybe you are confusing the pictures?
they have the 5850 lined up against the 285
and the 5870 lined up against the 295.

Nah, was just checking the graphs. If that turns out to be accurate its not a big enough performance increase for me to bother upgrading. I may skip a generation of cards I think and wait for the next round.

I stayed up and didn't see ANY cards hit Newegg. The release was supposed to be today for the USA, and the 23rd for Europe.
