I don't know exactly what was meant by that, but there was likely something to it. Our Chinese/Taiwanese friends supposedly 'in-the-know' mentioned long before the 6900 series release that it had (according to Googlnese) been "melted down" and changes had been made reducing shader count (From 1920 to 1792 IIRC, but I may remember wrong). The mill, and reality, points to number 2.
6950 BECAME 6970 (Or at least shader specs drifted downward perhaps revisioned more than once) allowing greater allocation to 6970. Cayman yields were terrible, and units were disabled on both parts. Cayman yields were great, and most dies qualified to have all shaders enabled.Ģ. One just became less pessimistic, and more realistic.ġ. Plausible?There were always two ways to look at that (if it was true). Was the delay caused by the last minute BIOS fiddlings to make more 6950's out of the 6970 cards? Is this what the delay was all about? CD at S/A had an article about 6970 stocks being higher than expected and 6950 stocks being very low. The54thvoidIs this not a bit shit? I mean as in shipping units that are 'software' crippled and can be 'fixed'? It's great for the guys with 6950's but it surely must leave a sour taste in the mouth for 6970 owners who paid what, 50-80 quid more? I guess hardware fusing is more expensive so BIOS mod.

The possible exceptions might be Futuremark’s 3DMark Vantage and Unigine’s Heaven 2.1.
Each of these resolutions offers enough of a variance in raw pixel output to warrant testing with it, and each properly represent a different market segment: mainstream, mid-range and high-end.īecause we value results generated by real-world testing, we don’t utilize timedemos. Game TitlesĪt this time, we benchmark with three resolutions that represent three popular monitor sizes available today, 20″ (1680×1050), 24″ (1920×1080) and 30″ (2560×1600).

Most of the services we disable are mild, but we go to such an extent to have the PC as highly optimized as possible.

The full list of Windows services we assure are disabled is large, but for those interested in perusing it, please look here. The most important services we disable are: For example, disabling “Windows Search” turns off the OS’ indexing which can at times utilize the hard drive and memory more than we’d like. This is due to the fact that these services have the tendency to start up in the background without notice, potentially causing inaccurate test results.

To aide with the goal of keeping accurate and repeatable results, we alter certain services in Windows 7 from starting up at boot. Machine has proper airflow and the room temperature is 80☏ (27☌) or less.Hard drives affected are defragged with Diskeeper 2010 prior to a fresh benchmarking run.The OS is kept clean no scrap files are left in between runs.No virus scanner or firewall is installed.No power-saving options are enabled in the motherboard’s BIOS.When preparing our testbeds for any type of performance testing, we follow these guidelines:
