Finally, the HD 2900 Pro surfaces, it's time now to answer some of those basic questions. How much is it going to cost? The card from HIS comes initially at $250, wich means you can expect other brands to get below $200 before the holidays. Wich nVidia card is it going to be compared with? Based on current pricing, the 8800GTS 320MB should be it's counterpart. Let's see how it fares, then, against both it's rival and it's former "self" (the HD 2900 XT). The benchmark suite includes: 3DMark, Prey, Fear, Half Life, Call of Juarez, Company of Heroes and World in Conflict. DirectX 9 without AA favors the 2900 over the 8800, while enabling AA tilts the balance towards nVidia. DirctX 10 is a mixed bag, but the 2900 looks rather promising. The XT version doesn't get much of a lead, so it's price is by no means justified now. As for overcloking, the new Pro reached 760MHz/1800MHz DDR which actually puts it slightly ahead of the HD 2900 XT. Link: TweakTown.
