Power Consumption

The Radeon HD 4770 shows a solid mix of low idle and load power clearly outclassing the NVIDIA hardware. The relatively small differential between the two is interesting especially considering the kind of performance we see.

    ATI will discontinue the 4830 cards in favour of the 4770.

    60+ fps at resolutions above 3000x2000 for $150-200 that I would call modern and good graphics until then I'd rather wait. It's about time for that to happen!

    Why? Is there even 0.01% of the possible market with a display of that kind of resolution?

    ATI IS LOSING M0NEY ON EVERY CARD THEY SELL - SO MUCH FOR PROFIT FROM TINY GPU CORES! GREAT LIE THO RED ROOSTERS AND BOOSTERS... GOSH YER SO DANG SMART !
    " AMD's graphics division (ATI) reported net revenue of $248 million (PDF, page 3) and an operating loss of $38 million in Q2. Revenue fell $14 million from Q1, but was up 17.5 percent compared to the equivalent period in 2007. For the six months ended June 28, 2008, graphics revenue was $510 million with an operating loss of $25 million, compared to revenue of $422 million and an operating loss of $65 million through the same period in 2007. "

    NOW FOR NVIDIA PROFITS! YOU KNOW, THAT'S $$$$ LEFT OVER AFTER MAKING AND SELLING, SOMETHING ATI DOESN'T KNOW ABOUT WITH THEIR PATHETICALLY CHEAP TINY CORE YOU YAPPERS LIKE DEREK KEEP PUSHING ON LOSERS !
    " For the three months that ended October 26, profit sank 74 percent to $61.7 million, or 11 cents a share, from $235.7 million a year earlier. Excluding costs from stock compensation and other expenses, earnings were 20 cents a share. This exceeded the average estimate of 11 cents projected by First Call. "
    THAT'S CALLED A PROFIT AND STOCK INCREASE THERE RED ROOSTERS, AND ONLY NVIDIA HAS IT ! YOUR RED ATI LOST MONEY - DUHH !

    Don't you love it - the paper launch with just a tiny trickle of 4770's for sale - you still can't get any at newegg and the parts rans out initially with 2-5 reviews (meaning a tiny part supply).

    Same at Tigerdirect - NOT AVAILABLE

    Same at Amazon - NOT AVAILABLE

    The greatest paper launch scandal ever - and NOT A WORD OF COMPLAINT FROM ANANDTECH BECAUSE IT'S ATI AND NOT NVIDIA !
