@ Deject, I said, and you quoted me on this - 'It isn't as good as a 2900' and you tell me to shut the fuck up and follow up with

So what your saying is that it isn't as good as a 2900? Seems to me you're just copying me in some childish game of repeat the other person.

All we differ on is where precisely it sits between a 1950xt and a 2900, and seeing as how there's no benchmarks we can compare the 360 gpu to a 2900 with, then it's just speculation on both our parts as to precisely how fast the xenos is in comparison to other gpu's. So please deject, refrain from unnecessary insults and try to formulate cogent arguments instead.

@ centerededgedesign - the 360 doesn't possess a hd drive as standard, it's an extra peripheral, no need to try and justify it in the blu-ray/hddvd wars, it's not a player until you pay moar monies to make it one.

no see, it's in pretty much no way like a 1950 at all. The fixed Shaders on the 1950 in no way resemble the Unified Shaders of the Xenos and R600 GPUs. The only differences between the Xenos 360 GPU and the 2900 are the number of unified shaders, render units, texture units and the RAM.

Fine, but I never really mentioned the technical aspects in any detail, merely commented on its performance.

Anyway, I love you deject and you love me.

Ahh, good to know. I've not owned or played a sexbox, so don't know alot except they're posed opposite of Stoney. So I guess I figured they'd have HD DVD to match Blu-Ray.
