DAMMIT'S PLANS for an HD 4850 X2 have been confirmed after pictures of a Sapphire implementation of the chippery appeared on a Chinese web site.

The dual-slot card features some heavy-duty cooling and comes with 2GB of GDDR3 memory.

The pictures are here.

The implementation appears to be exclusive to Sapphire - for now. µ

DDR4 or 5 NOT Perfected

You have to remember with DDR4 and 5 in the past Framerates drop completely on those ATI and Nvidia Cards. Going back to DDR3 is Right with my ATI 4850 I can play with the big boys. So 2 smash together running at PCX16 2.0 instead of 8X crossfire . Is pretty darn great, This card will run about 389.00 with rebate.

Uhm...

An ATI X2 card with... GDDR3? Isn't that a bit of a step backwards? Screw that.

Oh, ye noobses!...

Why some obscure Chinese forum, when the official pics can be found on the Sapphire web-site.

2GB

Yeah, it has to be 2 GB, it can't be 2Gb (256 MB). That's too low.

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
