"cooling system that produces rather loud nice is something that should definitely be corrected on commercial Radeon HD 2900 XT graphics cards."
'nice' should probably be 'noise'

The chart on page 11 has the memory bandwith of the 2600 and 2400 backwards.

please benchmark SpecViewPref 9.03 when you do all the benchmarks and specific if used Vista or XP.

Some of us do 3D work as a Hobby or currently a student and usually can not afford those killer prices of FireGL and Quadro cards. When DailyTech posted the SpecViewPref scores beating the QuadroFX5600 i can only dream for this to be real but no one hardware review site has ran this benchmark so please be the first.
Thanks

AMD/ATI releases this absolute flop of a gpu. I currently own an 8800GTS and wanted to upgrade to an R600 as soon as would comer out because i thought it would blow the 8800 series out of the water! How dissappointing this card is!It has trouble keeping up with a gpu that is almost 6 months old now, it draws more power and definitly is a step back in pice/performance per watt.ATI and AMD really dont deserve any credit for their GPUs and CPUs lately. what if nvidia gets out an 65nm 8900GTx or something with more shaders still and higher clocks? AMD-ATI is doomed and brought their doom omly to themselves!

Nice. Thanks.
What about gaming perfomance then? When will those tests appear?
And what is known about phisic and GP computing?
What can you say about audio-implemation?

Niels.
The 8.37.4.2 drivers you've pointed out are fake..they improve FPS at the expense of image quality..basically they give the R600 an easy time by lowering the image quality of the game and thus "improving" FPS in a big way....ATI has already repleaced these set of dirvers (due to cunsumer complains of poor image quality) with new ones called 8.37.4.3 and these prvide the original in game quality setting and in this real enviorment the FPS are much lower then that of an 8800GTX/Ultra and even 8800GTS...My point is that R600 is a total LOOSER no matter how you call it!!
