I hope it's true.
But, what about 2x 4870X2 vs 1x GTX 280, in an intel mobo ?
"crushed" is kind of a subjective term without numbers backing it, no?
I thought the X2 was quite a way off being ready for production? A good month or two.

There are lies ,dam lies, and statistics...:headexplode:
And until I don't the see the later on several reputable sites, I'm inclined on the the 2 first ones on this rumor.
If the 7000+ in Vantage Extreme is to be believed then that thing is going to be a monster of a card.
7k+ on Vantage Extreme.....for those who don't follow 3dmark anymore...how would that equate to in 06 O.o...

Single GPU > SLI/CF ;)

I dunno, I can't run an extreme test cos I can't run the res. Probably about 25-30k I would think.
No proof = nothing.
Exactly

LOL, the article itself doesn't even sound sure, with that question mark at the end.
I'm gonna make up stuff and post it as news too, brb.
News at 11: ATI's new Baconator card beats 8-way Nvidia SLI! Some guy some where on some internet forum told me some time ago!

Uhh, seems like they were winning with the 9700, the 9800, the 1950xtx.

That's pre-history :D
And 1950xtx was debatable.
