Besides some time ago appeared this table

Excluding the the price, which won't be that (the 8870 at that price would make the 7950 look like a bad joke), if the expected performance increase isn't too far off from the end result and the other cards see the same increase in performance, the 8770 could end with the same performance as the 7870, or very close.


I'm pretty sure that chart is bullshit tho I mean on the same process 600m more transisters at a slightly higher clock rate and it somehow has a lower TDP? I find that hard to belive myself.

Yes, I know and I also dislike that bit. I only mentioned the price being BS but the thermals are also suspicious.

But you know the usual excuses, with the 28nm process being more mature, with the tweaks that AMD/Nvidia can do to improve efficiency, etc. they may have been able to reduce the voltage of the chips as well as reduce the redundant sectors that the first 28nm cards had to improve yields. :-/

With luck, we'll see it in 4 months.
