So, I am looking at the anantech review of the AMDs new graphics architecture and all I can see is fermi.
It outright says that this is not as good for gaming, but better for compute. And so for necessity they are going that way, providing absolute minimal boost in gaming performance over current gen in graphics due to dumping VLIW4 for SIMD.
I have to say that was not at all what I expected. I thought we would see nVidia backpedal on fermi rather then AMD embrace it.
Closing this thread per the OP's request.
