I know the HD4870 will be a beast, I have one on pre-order...
2 GB's more RAM and I'm set for another 2 years!

I mean the HD4870X2.  It's a dual core card but unlike dual core CPU's both cores will equally share the work load.  ATi's previous generatio of X2 cards worked more like crossfire itself and used an internal crossfire bridge.  The HD4870X2's are using a new communications method. 

The HD4870X2 will easily outperform 2 HD4870's in CrossFire and cost less doing it.    

Isn't that still just rumors and speculation? About the X2 having shared memory and so on.
