I really can’t afford anything above $400 as far as GPUs go but this also means that the 7970 will go down in price too!

I think they will par its price to 760 and titan. It would be good if they cut atleast $50 off from 7970, then ill get my crossfire, total price for my rig will be somewhat 1.7k if that happens.. xD

Hopefully the Hawaii will be a TRUE new GPU and not another name for their current ones just OCed more= more heat=crashing faster. I also hope they add more to their cards like a physics chip or their own answer. I would like to build a system with one of their latest CPUs but not to have its benefits wasted to make up for shortcomings in their cards, card saving cost more due to increasing system upgrades to have more than an expensive paper weight. We also need a card that will give us the performance we need across the games we actually play. love to see the OpenCL bench marks, but we play cyris, battlefield, startcraft…., not OpenCL. We need a true game changer that gives us what we need and with drivers that work correctly from the beginning. I’m not holding my breath, how long have we been waiting for “those drivers” that will finally work, um, feels like for ever and still waiting.

What worries me is maybe they’ll price it too high like they did with there recent overclocked cpu release.

They’re working on drivers that fixes the micro-stuttering. I really hope this will work and make Crossfire even to SLI

AMD in GPU’s is not bad at all, if you planning to go with 1 card configuration.
The situation changes, when comparing CrossFire to SLI.

If AMD would fix that, then it would be at the same class as Nvidia.
Well maybe physyx, is that one function that the NV cards does better.
Otherwise except Titan as a single core GPU, AMD is at the competitive stage against Nvidia.
