Default Re: ATI Radeon 4800 Launch Details

i just read the whole article. What caught my eye is ATI screwed up on my HD 3870 x2 n made it PCI-E 1.1 instead of 2.0. If u read on wikipedia about the two, it says that 2.0 gives 150w through the slot alone, not the 1.1.

In June, i will be selling (really) my HD 3870 x2 for $285. I would like to announce this now, tell ur friends! If no one buys, then ill just give it to my close friend, Difolo, who doesnt come to this site hardly at all anymore for free.
