Anybody Has Ivy & 7970m Yet?

[bsan89]

Any pre-order? Any at all?

What I want:

-3rd Generation Intel Ivy Bridge Intel Core i7 3820 @3.6ghz
-8GB DDR3 1600mhz RAM
-240GB SSD
- x2 AMD 7970m (Crossfire)

It usually I'm missing one or other other
One has 2nd Gen CPU, most of them don't have 7870m yet or pre-order.

Check back tonight @12am (tomorrow morning). That's when everyone is allowed to put up the Ivy Bridge specs. I know that all the Clevo sellers will have those specs, as will AW.

Mythlogic will let you order with a 7970m right now and has said that when IVB is allowed to be posted tomorrow the prices will be the same as the SB equivalent and that they will convert the CPU to the IVB for orders that have been placed but not shipped.

Any reseller of Clevos will have it by tomorrow. The Mega Reseller Thread that is stickied in this forum should have a list of Clevo resellers.

With 4GB of dedicated VRAM you are going to want more than 8GB of system RAM. 12GB would be the minimum I would recommend. A graphics card will allocate itself at a minimum a roughly equal chunk of system RAM by default. If it can grab more, it will to improve graphics quality (not frame rates). Here is tomshardware article that sort of explains it.

I just don't want you to have a RAM bottleneck in such a beast of a system. Cheers!
