May time
ATI's first 40nm Guinea pig product, the RV740 based Radeon HD 4870 will sell for $99 at launch. This card ends up a bit slower than Radeon HD 4850 and at the same time, it is faster than Radeon 4830, an RV770 based product.
It will fight Geforce 9800GT and it is a clear winner, but we are quite sure that this card can go even further down from $99 magic price range. In 2009, price will certainly matter.
For those looking at that 4850 or 4870 STOP! Wait for this to come out! As it is WELL worth the 99 USD you will spend on it..
Oh BTW if its the 4870 you want to replace use this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150360 Nuff said!
