That beta key still available ?

Beachhead Game

I already gave the low end crown (until HD 6770 and I personally had included 6850 to that category as well, but I will concede it isnt the right call) and in the middle category, yes AMD does seem to do quite well again like you said... however 560 Ti and 6950 was always a tough call especially...

So a full month to go ? Thats too long... interestingly the price points are the same at which SB is currently selling in the market (in $ terms) ... so expect very similar INR prices too ?

I am slightly unqualified to answer that, have been only active in the last 6 odd months and wouldnt know about the facts around the release of Nvidia 5xx or Amd 6xxx ... I am a lil surpirsied, however, to hear people say that AMD trumped even between 5xx and 6xxx, I always had the impression...

I actually agree with Marcus on this, the tables do seem to have turned in more ways than one (both pricing and performance against an AMD lineup that is deemed to be a tad pricy at its levels and only has (AMAZING) power efficiency to show for itself, but not much in terms of significant...

More importantly, what timing on those cards ? My 7850 purchase has hit a spanner again

If at all one is in the performance segment catered to by the 6850, then yes, most definitely enticing

The same question! 78xx.... ? 7850 specifically...

Today is the launch date, right ? Why arent we seeing any avaiability ? ... and I dont mean just the Indian availability, I mean global too...

Got the facts, now for the links

Fair enough, I stand corrected and convinced

So just to check the moral of the story, sub 20k or rather 18k range, Asus PA238Q is the best monitor to buy, even when compared to U2312HM ? For gaming and movies ?

With 17-2600k at 17k , i7-3770k at 18-19 is a stretch, based on this alone, I wouldnt expect anything less than 21k...

I suppose a more significant information would be price and then availability ... any leads on India pricing and the expected reduction in SB CPU prices ?

Even I thought Alpha17 was ticked off, and I havent seen that happen too often, so...

September is a huge timeframe, I am sure you will get the most out of it.. as for me, my second hand 4870 has lasted me all that it could (since Sep 2010) and with an ancient machine (June 2007), I am overdue for an upgrade by 6 months... the SB vs Ivy and the 6xxx vs 7xxx debate kept on pushing...

I believe your top half of the post actually helps my arguement since you are suggesting that the tick tock takes the sheen out of Intel's releases, by reducing the time and the gap between the top products from the two camps. You did however say exactly that in the post which sparked all my...

#ALPHA17, do explain how I contradicted my own statement... Also, I did not mention any tick-tock cycle... while there may be something to a tick-tock in GPUs as well, I am not aware of it and neither is it part of my arguement. The quicker cycles referred to mean that even a 3 month dominance...

While I have the same question for "rite" on the pricing, I believe it is premature to say AMD is never going to go after the crown. 7970 is the fastest currently, isnt it ? As for the obvious retort surrounding generations of card release (7xxx being a later generation than 5xx) well whos to...
