How come they NEVER mention that this card has Cinema 2.0 Technology??? like get real people who cares if you can over clock this, like it's fine if people want to, but just because you can't over clock it much, don't say "Well let's get the 8800 card cuz it over clocks more" think about the AMAZING feature this card comes with, that people fail to mention, the feature means that you will soon be playing PHOTO REALISTIC games, using this video cards, there is NO other card that can handle that at this time, because they don't come with the onboard Cinema 2.0 chips. So instead of looking at this card and thinking "Well I don't wanna get it cuz it wont let me get an extra 3 fps on Crysis" instead say this to yourself "Well it wont let me get 3 more fps on Crysis, but it comes with revolutionary technology that will allow for PHOTO REALISTIC Games in the near future" that's what the True Gamer should think about, the person who only cares about FPS, is not a gamer, they are simply Power Enthusiasts, in my Opinion.

Power is not everything
so tell me, what does Cinema 2.0 actually do? does it enable better physics? what graphics technology is it based on? does it have new shader model?
or is it a marketing phrase?
if power is not everything, then why buy 4870x2? wouldn't a 4650 be enough?
FPS is a measurement of how well one card compare to another in certain games. if there are better way of doing it, Bit-tech will have already done it.
for example, the minimal FPS is what gamers should really care about, Bit-tech puts those on most of the graphs. and guess what, multi-GPU (even with "Cinema 2.0") doesn't perform very well.
There's no such thing as a Cinema 2.0 chip... there's definitely no dedicated "Cinema 2.0" hardware in RV770. It's nothing more than a marketing slogan that AMD is throwing around IMO. The Cinema 2.0 demos are incredible, but they're on the rails - they've not shown any moving away from the rails (even looking around), so I'm not convinced. If I'm wrong and in less than 12 months we're playing (truly) "photo realistic games" that are as good looking as the Cinema 2.0 demos, I'll eat my hat.
We've been playing "photo realistic games" for years now - ever since the Emotion Engine in PlayStation 2 (and probably before then too). Nvidia first coined Cinematic Rendering with NV30 as well... and we all know what a load of crock that was (both the card and the associated marketing fluff).
