AMD Radeon HD 4870 and HD 4850 Review

If you were confused into believing that AMD's next-generation architecture, the RV770 design, was supposed to be out MUCH earlier than today, you wouldn't be alone. We started posting about the RV770 design as far back as late December and the stream of news and rumors about the number of shader processors, memory technologies and more. Last week we were "gifted" with the early release of the Radeon HD 4850 512MB - one of the products based on the RV770 design, but today we'll walk you through not only both the HD 4850 and HD 4870 graphics boards but also the RV770 architecture itself.
