July 15, 200817 yr Holy sh**, fast as hell and accordingly incredibly powerhungry. Though a bit less than 2 HD4870 in crossfire, it seems, and an ominous BIOS upgrade should offer the long hoped for power saving features, esp. in idle mode... In any case, probably nothing for me. And this review thinks differentlyIt's not the same card [edit] the Techreport preview shows a little strange power readings. The system with one 280 uses 300w, with two 565w. That means one 280 uses 265 w, leaving the rest of the system with 35w. Wtf? Edited July 15, 200817 yr by samm Citizen of a country with a racist, hypocritical majority
July 15, 200817 yr Look at the sound chart, the numbers for 4800 and 4870 are about the same Edited July 15, 200817 yr by Gorgon Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.

July 15, 200817 yr yeah typo. Anyway looks nice Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
August 3, 200817 yr Seems like a very interesting card - I wonder when it will become available for notebooks in a mobile version...
August 3, 200817 yr It will never come I think, or not with the same computing power anyway, because it draws more power than a whole notebook normally does (including processor, screen, hdd, dvd, graphics etc) Citizen of a country with a racist, hypocritical majority
August 3, 200817 yr It will never come I think, or not with the same computing power anyway, because it draws more power than a whole notebook normally does (including processor, screen, hdd, dvd, graphics etc) A pity - but yes, if it draws so much power, it is a non-starter for mobile computing.
August 3, 200817 yr Author It will never come I think, or not with the same computing power anyway, because it draws more power than a whole notebook normally does (including processor, screen, hdd, dvd, graphics etc) http://www.fudzilla.com/index.php?option=c...48&Itemid=1 No mobile versions of a GPU has the same computing power as their bigger siblings. It only means they're based on the same core (in this case the RV770), usually in a severely underclocked form. But samm is right about one thing; these 48XX chips are extremely power-hungry. I wouldn't be surprised if this idea was canned eventually. We'll see. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!
