Strange, check out this story. If its true, I wanna know how much the card will cost, and how often these drivers will be updated. CrAzIe!!!!:eek:

Lots of rumors surrounding this product. If they really have designed the core to run at 400Mhz, even if it requires a special "Tyan" driver (or powerstrip ;) ), that would be quite amazing for a "stock" clock speed.

I've also heard rumors of faster clocked memory. I'm a bit skeptical on this one, though I'm curious as to what it will turn out to be.

Sounds interesting!!I wonder if they will support the overclock ala gainward with their golden samples.If they do a 400/400 radeon 9700 will be my next card.
I wonder if the price will be overclocked too.

I don't know about the speeds that it will run at, but that's a cool looking board.

Anyways, I can get my Radeon's memory to 680 without additional cooling, but getting it to run at 800MHz (which is your 400MHz x 2) is out right ridiculous.

A 400MHz core, I see as possible, but not an 800MHz memory. And in the review it is running at, I believe 345/680. Not much higher than what the Radeon is already running.
