At least its a bigger Bus, 512 is much more of a nice number.

Bah!

Doesn't even qualify for "Geek P0rn". I expected sexy PCB's, hot coolers (no pun intended) with Ruby stickers, triple of quadruple power imputs...that kind of things.

cant wait until this gets out and the bit crew sacrifices a 8800 core so we can see its guts

Mother-Goose · 27th Nov 2006, 17:08

YAY, are they making sounds as to when this beasty will be out? (ie, Q1 or Q2?)

Ramble · 27th Nov 2006, 19:39

I reckon Q1, if we already have engineering samples been given to magazines then it can't be too far off.

So when they refer to AMD and graphics at the same time, is that ATi talking? When I saw the title I was like "WTF AMD IS MAKING GPUS?!?!?11" and then I remembered about that bloody merger.

If we get lucky it wont draw 300+ watts under light load too.

I can dream.
