ATI R520 scores 10K+ in 3Dmark05

"Despite what people were claiming, the G70 will score better than the 7800. The card never got the 7800 suffix based on its 3Dmark05 score and if it was number would end up significantly bigger. It's actually going to be quite better but still not as good as the "Fudo" R520.

We got some numbers from this card and it turns out that R520 scores more than 10000 in 3Dmark05. We still don't know its clock speeds but we know the score. For what we know Nvidia can not mach this with G70.

This is actually even better or equal to two 6800 Ultra cards in SLI which kinds of makes it looks ridiculously fast. Imagine R520 in Crossfire, what ATI "cool chap" described as "Coolest technology ever" could do? Just double the number please.

No question that R520, Fudo will be fast the only questions remains are when is it going to be out and when it will actually be available. We will hopefully found out more soon."

WTF? Read that carefully? The R520 is faster then G70 but then he goes on to
say it will be better or equil to a simple 6800U SLI setup...

compairing it
to a 6800U setup...

When they also just said

G70 SLI is faster then 6800U SLI (G70 is faster then 6800U)
R520 Crossfire is faster then G70

inquirer fluff...

looks ok to me

G70 > 7800
Fudo > G70
Fudo > 6800U SLI
so inference rules suggest

Fudo > 7800

but no comparison shown between G70/7800 and 6800U SLI
