Leaked Pics Show AMD's Beastly ATI HD 5870 X2
Posted 09/28/09 at 12:40:07 PM by Paul Lilly
In Act I of the modern-day GPU wars, AMD lit up the scene by releasing the ATI Radeon HD 5870, the fastest single-GPU videcoard money can buy. In Act II, AMD will hope to also claim the dual-GPU crown with its upcoming HD 5870 X2.
The latest rumor pegs the beastly dual-GPU videocard for an October release, though AMD hasn't said anything official yet. Nevertheless, to satisfy power users with deep pockets who are chomping at the bit, leaked pics of the 5870 X2 have hit the web.
Not just one leaked pic either, but several of them, each one showing the 5870 X2 in its massive glory. The X2 appears to trump the 5870 in length, which already measures about 11 inches long. While it's hard to determine exactly how long the X2 will be, it looks to be about a half-inch longer.

Wow! That is a big frakkin card! Reminds me of the Voodoo 5 6000 from 3dfx. That was 3dfx's swan song. I hope like hell this is not ATI's.

This is the card that I have been waiting for to trump all others! Too bad I JUST bought a Sapphire 4870 HD tricked out with 2 Gigs of ram! Now, I have to ask, with the exception of Star Trek On-Line comming up, is there ANYTHING comming in the future that would justify the reason to own shuch a monster card, other than pure bragging rights? I WILL get this baby when it hits the streets just for that reason alone baby!
huge case

I can't wait to get one of those for my computer. All I need to know is how much I will need to buy the card and how much extra I will need to spend on a giant case.
you set yourself up for this...
