With the release of Nvidia's Fermi video card long after ATI's DirectX 11 video card, everyone has been desperately awaiting the performance results.  From the looks of the first video, I should have waited a little while longer to purchase my new computer.  However, the first video is a synthetic benchmark.  What happens in the real world tests?  Hit the jump for the videos.

Remember that mysterious countdown on the Bioware site? Well, it hit zero today, and the result was not a new game, or anything like that at all. Instead it was the reveal of a new contest/auction being held by Bioware. Instead of money, you bid on over 400 items using tokens. And how do you obtain said tokens? Read on.

  The guys over at HardOCP have put out a very good look at ATI's new multi-monitor system called Eyefinity.  In this case they were running 3 monitors at 5760x1200 Resolution.  They look at it very much from a gaming perspective, and they also gave the new system a Gold Rating to go along with the Radeon HD 5800 video-cards Gold Rating too.  Check it out.

So Nvidia tried to piss all-over AMD's parade yesterday with the release of the Radeon 5800 series graphics card.  It's no secret that these new cards perform very well, and are priced equally well.  The Price:Performance ratio that I love so much has gone up(as it should), and Nvidia has nothing to go up against it at the moment.  So what did NVidia do?  Well, they shot out a press statement to AMD asking a bunch of questions.  AMD answered.  Take a look.

It's Here!

The New ATI Radeon 5800 Series video cards are here.  Totally destroying the previous 4800 Series before it, including the 4890, and spanking Nvidia along the way. Reviews after the jump.

For those of you looking to get your hands on a copy of Windows 7 and upgrade their computer at the same time, you might want to hold off a bit until the first line of DirectX 11 cards are on the market.  After all, the release is not that far off.  More after the jump.
