Honestly Im disappointed with the performance. I have waited for so long for this card and I expected around 60% increase compared to the 6970. Now I must figure a new plan on what to replace my beloved Radeon 4850 with to be able to play Skyrim on max.

I don't like that AMD invests so much in compute performance instead of gaming performance (same with nvidia). It feels like I'm paying for something that I will never use.

What resolution does your monitor have?
