    Do we really need a...

    Radeon 3850X3?

    How about AMD get off their arse and make a decent mid range card because Nvidia is dominating that end of the market.

    But, here we go anyway:

    Asus EAH3850 Trinity

    It has three MXM-modules with RV670s..two of them are located behind the card and one of them is in front. It has 3x256MB vram and single 8-pin power connector. It uses water cooling.

                  Maybe a bit ridiculous, but they have to do something to have the best product on the market.

                    Ummmm, why are we criticizing ATI? They didn't make this. Asus did.

                    But still, that doesn't make it good. I wonder what Asus was thinking. Its basically an X2 with another 3870 on the back... watercooled. :|: Purpose.... :shakehead

                      Because i believe it's AMD that have to approve what you are going to do with their technology, and they have to make the drivers, so no doubt it would have been in their plans as well.

                        iirc ATi run indepentantly from AMD even though they own them.

                          Yes, but there is no doubt a lot of "influence"...

                            so ATi works solo apart from AMD, i thought they were merged hence ATIMD 0.o
