ATI RADEON HD 5970 "Hemlock"

The ATI Radeon HD 5970 (codenamed 'Hemlock') is the fastest consumer graphics card in the world, bar none. Now that we have that out of the way, let's step back and take a look at the card.

The HD 5970 is essential two HD 5870s (a card which we also branded the fastest single GPU graphics card in the world) running in one shell. As a result of the dual GPUs, the core clock speeds have been brought down to 725MHz per core. The card uses a 256x2 bit memory interface and has 2x1GB of GDDR5 memory. Like the other cards in ATI's 5000 series, the HD 5970 supports DirectX 11 and ATI's Eyefinity technology, which lets it output visuals to multiple displays.

[techwap4]

hey man..i'm both an ATI & nVidia fan boy....no need to panic!!! the HD 5970 is basically 2 x HD5870 chips packed into one board....but will relatively less clock speeds....and the new drivers are yet to come....so surpassing gtx295 is just a piece of cake....The ATI HD 5970 retails for $625....but i think the gt300"fermi" will hit the markets with an eye popping 1000bucks....lets see....the graphics market is getting hotter and hotter....
