ATI HD 6000 Series GPU's

It seems ATI have more cards on the way in the near future.

“We are expecting the new ATI Radeon HD 6000-series to be announced later this year, around Q4 2010. After which, we will be releasing our own Radeon HD 6000-series early next year,” said Kenny Chow, a senior marketing officer at HIS

Hmmm....looks like my waiting may pay off. I was on the fench as to whether to upgrade my 4890 or wait and see what's next on the horizon as the 5000 series seems to have issues.

Thanks

That was a given. I am already screaming along with my Radeon HD 5850 that I got the day it was released. I generally upgrade maybe every 2-3 years at most. My Radeon X1900XT lasted me over 3 years.

Mmmmm...
New hardware.

lol, the 6xxx series will have their own issues - it's ATI man

I can always keep hope alive. Who knows, they may be so successful that I let my guard down and actually buy into that nightmare they call Crossfire


zzzzzzzzzzzz OK I'm dreaming

I have a Radeon HD 5850. I haven't had a single problem with it and I got it when it was released.

Yeah other than missing DX11, though I have no DX11 titles yet, my 4890 is doing rather well itself.

BTW haven't seen you around in awhile. Hows that motherboard holding up?

yep, my twin 4890's are still thrashing along nicely - in Crossfire, too..!!
