R520 will score over 10000 points in 3Dmark05

ATi’s next geenration graphic card a.k.a. R520 will be launched within the near future and now the first rumours on the performance has appeared. Rumour site #1 The Inquirer has received information stating that ATI R520 will score over 10000 points in 3Dmark05. A task not even two 6800 Ultra graphic cards in SLI is capable of. R520 will be even more powerful than nVidia’s G70-circuit in 3Dmark05, something we don’t really doubt as ATi has a history of performaning well in Futuremark’s performance tests. But that R520 would score over 10000 points in 3Dmark05 should be considered with a truckload of salt, but you can’t help wondering what a Crossfire-system with dual R520 cards would perform like…
