Of course AMD has to stick two 4870 GPUs on one board to win this prize. We ask if it offers any advantages over two single 4870s on a CrossFire motherboard. "The 4870X2 has 2G GDDR5 memory, which provides the end user a performance boost in high resolutions and high settings," says Byrne. "This is also a single slot board and doesn't require a CrossFire motherboard. It's just an awesome product and we're selling every board we produce.
"The great news is that demand keeps growing and we are significantly increasing our market share in both the channel and the OEM markets. The 4000 series graphics cards are considered by users and by customers as the best graphics cards available in the market today."
Byrne seemed pretty jubilant when we spoke to him just after the 4800 series launch. We ask him if his initial optimism has proven justified. "The great news is that demand keeps growing and we are significantly increasing our market share in both the channel and the OEM markets," says Byrne. "The 4000 series graphics cards are considered by users and by customers as the best graphics cards available in the market today."
The only way to stay ahead in the graphics market is to constantly innovate. To conclude we ask Byrne what we can expect to see next from AMD. Watch this space; you won't need to wait long for our next chat," he says. "Remember, the HD4870 X2 was step two, step three is imminent."
We would like to hear what the HEXUS.community thinks step three will be. Is it as predictable as the 4850 X2 or something else? What do you think a 4850 X2 card would bring to the table?
