new sub-$100 ATI card

[foothead]

So, this just popped up on the AMD website. http://www.amd.com/us/products/desk...erview/Pages/ati-radeon-hd-5670-overview.aspx I did a little googling and its aimed at the sub-$100 market, and was just announced today. It appears to be half of juniper, with clocks of 775/1000. What do y'all think? any good?

Any official benchmarks? Could be a good little budget card.

Right now, its kinda overpriced with the 5750 at $130, but I'm sure its gonna drop to something more like $80 pretty quickly.

I wonder how this will weigh in against the EVga GT240SSC with GDDR5. I'm sure it has the major advantage over the GT240 with DX11 which is the new hit in Se7en.

EDIT: After reviewing the benches, it's not quite the answer to the question I had, but the GT240 surprisingly holds its own in DX10 mode against the 5670. I might pick up one dem for dedicated physX. Or two more GTS250's. lol.

Whoa, what happened in L4D2?

This little thing has eyefinity lol but i guess its just a low end card?

probably a good get if you're running a smaller res and have power restrictions with a smaller psu...
