PC gaming will be taking a huge graphical leap.

As you know PC gaming already has great hardware as it is but coming this july the graphical heart of the PC the GPU aka the video card is coming strong.

http://www.vr-zone.com/articles/NVIDIA_GT200_:_GeForce_9900_GTX_&_9900_GT_In_Q3/5684.html

This being said this is not a joke this all real the new chips of Nvida being said that the 9900GTX will replace the 9800GX2 in saying this we have a clue the new GT200 build from Nvida will be ground breaking. as the 9800GTX will be replaced by a 9900GT

get ready hermits the time of completely maxing Crysis with high FPS is upon us and furthermore.

Also the counter of Nvidia cards ATI is coming on strong with there new 4000 series.

A Major Graphical leap is coming.

you see that new 4870x2 HD god that is beautiful im guessing there's not many hermits on huh?Nolan16

Holy crap, a single card pushes 1 TFLOP, that 4870x2 looks disgustingly beautiful.

This had better be a bigger step up than the 9800GTX from 8800GTXClarentUK

it's going to be a huge step up there saying 1 9900GTX will

Outperform a

9800GX2

Great graphical leap indeed.

I thought Crysis was already the big graphical leap. So if what you're saying is true that means there is going to be ANOTHER leap but the question remains this will save PC gaming how?kayn83

PC gaming needs to be saved? From what?

Lol did i egg on any console fanboys with this post point to me where i said one word about it saving PC gaming?

We need more games to push the limits of this hardware before I'll even consider buying it.. not worth it just to max Crysis. I'm happy with it running on high :)MyopicCanadian

i know the PC hardware is surpassing the games it's crazy i'm waiting for a dev to create a game that will max out the 4870X2 HD because there's no way crysis will crysis will be slayed finally.

i'm just curious how many people will actually own this thing? only hardcore owners. which means for the casual person trying to play a few games, pc is pretty much out of the question.

i'm sure the card will be amazing and i wish i had a tower to put one in but the truth is i don't look at hardware this beastly very seriously because i won't have it anytime soon.

although i will add: have fun when you get one :D

I'm LOVING IT :D

yussss good news!

I usually skip a gen of cards so was looking to upgrade my 7950 with a 9800 but I wasn't really impressed by the difference between them and the 8800s so I held off. Looks like I made the right decision if this hype delivers.pieatorium

same here im upgrading to a 4870X2 HD on launch day it will deliver a single card pushing 1 TFLOP that's godly.

there are over 200 million PC gamers! so why does it need to be saved? and from what does it need saving?

Holy crap, a single card pushes 1 TFLOP, that 4870x2 looks disgustingly beautiful.

The 3870x2 already does that.... this is 2TFLOP.

Single card or single GPU die?

The 4870 is a single card, the 4870x2 is 2 cards in a single casing. Its basically 2 4870's cased together.

my only question is what game will even put this hardware to use besides Crysis?Nolan16

Project Offset, maybe DoW 2 and Stalker Clear Sky in the more likley to be releade before 2011 category.

The 4870 is a single card, the 4870x2 is 2 cards in a single casing. Its basically 2 4870's cased together.

It's just like the 3870x2 with both GPU on the same card... not 2 casing like the 9800GX2.

It's considered single card since it only takes 1 PCI-E slot.

My guess is like $300.

yeah i'm changing my guess to 300, after checking out the supposed leaked price chart of the 4000 series the 4870 is supposedly going to be 300, seems to be the equivalent model from ATI so I doubt Nvidias card would be much more if at all.

my only question is what game will even put this hardware to use besides Crysis?Nolan16

yep, devs are not going to spend massive ammounts of money making super good graphic like crytek to only have the game downloaded for free from the web.

Just because there's a new technology out doesn't mean every person has to switch to it.
