Default [Expreview] AMD: DirectX 11 Radeons Pleasantly Fast

Quote:
As we said, AMD plans to launch Evergreen series DirectX 11 graphics card by the end of 2009, and hopefully promote it for the release of Microsoft’s Windows 7 on Oct 22nd.
Richard Huddy, AMD’s head of the Developer Relations Department, said in a talk with PCgameshardware, “I would say we don’t make money by delivering slow hardware. Our expectation is that we’ll give you a really pleasant surprise this year when we ship our DX11 hardware.”
SOURCE

There's some cool pictures of Evergreen rendering a scene with tesselation after the jump.

Can't the higher-end 4-series tear through anything that exists now, though?
