[Thread Uff.le] Aspettando le nuove AMD Radeon Southern

[PhilSuperjoint]

Arriveranno dopo Natale? Ma speriamo! Calano i prezzi delle soluzione Hd6xxx,



Inoltre news sulle nuove soluzioni HD7900 dotate di memoria XDR2

As early as in September, we heard reports of AMD toying with Rambus XDR2 memory on its next generation of high-performance GPUs. Apart from our own community's response, that news met with a wall of skepticism as it was deficient in plausibility. New reports from Chinese websites have raised the topic again with fresh rumors that AMD will attempt to implement XDR2 on some of its next-generation ultra-high end products after all. XDR2, according to Rambus, can transport twice the amount of data per clock as GDDR5.

Apparently AMD and Rambus have had much more cordial relations with each other, than other companies the latter engaged in patent disputes with. In 2006, AMD settled outstanding disputes with Rambus by willing to pay licensing costs for certain technologies claimed by Rambus, turning a leaf in the relations between the two. What Chinese sources are suggesting now, is that AMD will design its high-end GPU (codename: "Tahiti") in a way that will let it support both GDDR5 and XDR2. Certain higher-end SKUs based on Tahiti will use XDR2, while the slightly more cost-effective SKUs will use GDDR5.

In related news, other sources told TechPowerUp that AMD could adopt a "top-to-bottom" strategy with the high-end portion of its next-generation of products. This means that AMD could launch the dual-GPU "New Zealand" graphics card first, followed by single-GPU SKUs.

AMD is reportedly preparing a media event next Monday, December 5th, to present their next-gen 28nm GPUs - to be branded Radeon HD 7000 series. While this is not going to be a release day, more information about the much anticipated HD 7000 is expected to finally be presented to the media.

Signori e signore, ecco a voi la nua ammiraglia di casa AMD, la HD7970 (anche se questo è un sample senza il backplate)





si intravedono diverse cose curiose... i moduli di memoria sono 10 come quelli montati sulle GTX580/570 ed immagino a doppia densità di quest'ultimi, quindi imho saranno 3Gb GDDR5 (non credo sulle XDR2) inoltre il chip dovrebbe essere grande più o meno come Cayman... inoltre i connettori di alimentazione sono uno da 6pin e uno da 8pin, anche se sulla vga ci sono anche i punti di saldatura per un altro 8pin (chissà i consumi)... se sono uscite le prime foto, non dovrebbe mancare molto alla presentazione

Interessante come soluzione. Vedremo che novità ci saranno.

Interessanti queste nuove schede

chissà cosa ci sarà da aspettarsi quasi aspetto la loro uscita e valuto se prendere la 7950

[djlegend]

Senza dubbio mi aspetto grandi numeri da queste schede.

Speriamo tirino fuori qualcosa di buono cosi Nvidia dovrà impegnarsi al meglio piu competizione c'e meglio per noi è
