It has been reported that the new Radeon HD 5800 Series will support a performance equal to 2 terrabytes of FLOPS (Floating point Operations Per Second. ) The news comes after it has been revealed that ATI Cypress will now become the Radeon HD 5800. As reported from TrustedReviews, the ATI Radeon HD 5850 and 5870 cards will be launched sometime in September, paving the way for a public release in October. The release seems to fit in nicely with the October 22nd release of Windows 7, so fans will now be able to look forward to DirectX 11 hardware before the end of the year. Customers should expect to pay around $299 for a 5800 series card, more details can be found in the link above. Let us know if you are waiting on a 5800 HD card.

Hell yeaaaaaah!!!!!! :D

Bring on the 5990s with 2.5 TeraFLOPS!!! :) Okay, just kidding... It could be cool to bake some pizza in it, but I doubt it... :)

I'll wait for the 5750. Maybe the power consumption will be less than 4770, but I'm not sure about that.

HTPC: AMD Athlon X2 4050e CPU with 780G ATX motherboard running Windows 8 DP (4GB) and Ubuntu; Server: AMD AII X2 240e CPU with 880G-based ATX motherboard running Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS (8GB)

2 pairs of Insignia NS-B2111s (front/rear), Pioneer SP-C21 Center Speaker, and 12" Velodyne Sub

Just ordered HP Pavilion dv7-6165us from QVC. Will have it by next Friday.
