Great find, but I sincerely doubt it 31.12 just sounds weird as a launch date.. If Blizzard is going to release it this year it will probably be sometimes before Christmas.

Well the 3850 gets anywhere from 9000-10000 depending on the cpu.

The X1950pro gets around 5000-6000 depending on the cpu.

Yeah I know that... but it's 9000-10000 if you are doing HD 3850 "PCI-Express" 3DMark06 on

# Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 Processor
# Gigabyte GA-P35-DQ6

Those previous scores that I have posted are the AGP card on Intel single core 2.8GHz socket 478 P4 Northwood so 4131 is a great score.... same goes for x1950pro

Umm bobxex. The 3850 does not get 4000 3dmarks in 3dmark06. And the X1950pro does not get 3000.
Lol where did you get those benchies?

What makes you think that they don't get 4000 and 3000 in 3DMark06??

I would agree with AuDioFreaK39 if you you are considering to buy an AGP card..... HD 3850 is a great one ... Just to give you heads up...

              HD3850 X1950 Pro 2600 Pro
3DMark06    4131    3428       2852
3DMark05    6399    5923       5832
3DMark03    24683  13224      9372

It is very limited by the CPU (2.8GHz P4 Northwood), but it beats X1950Pro, still doing games so wait for the review.. It will be up sometimes next week ......

thanks for the heads up ..... our review is just around the corner ....

tnx for the heads up.......
