I'm sure its not bigger than the GTX 295 :P
I can't wait for the 5870X2 (or whatever it ends up being named) comes out, and then subsequently drops a shitton in price, it'll make a welcome replacement for my 4870, assuming my PSU can handle it. :D
Looks like a beast.
My Ati Radeon HD 2400 can only play source games and crysis on low settings 800x600 and I get 20fps max...
ProTIP : NEVER buy a slimline PC...
tedsteriscool you are so ignorant.
Who needs heaters when you can use graphics cards, and they work so much better because your oil fin heater only gets up to 60-70 degrees? I mean the heating effect is of course proportional to how hot something gets and has nothing to do with the power something uses...
Twice ignorant actually since the ATI cards are working within spec. Yeah, its an accident that the cards heat up like that. ATI is powerless to increase the fan speed so the heat is like a demon in the closet they can do nothing about....
I wonder if it fit in midi-tower, my geforce 260 barely fit in my PC case.
Leaked specs continued. Also a Crysis benchmark floating around that shows the 5870 beating the GTX295 and 4890 CF. It's going to be epic.

I saw this one rumored benchmark of it running Crysis at max settings, 1920x1200, 4xAA 16x AF and DX 10, and it pulled an average of 43 fps with minimum of 30.
Crysis is finally playable!
