Juniper on the other hand is doing fantastic, is
exceeding expectations" and seems to be nearing yield numbers taking over for where RV770 left off.

Trust me, AMD is making bank right now with where the prices are at since the BOM for Cypress is only slightly higher than RV770. Basically they were able to replace the 4870x2 with something that decreases their expense by a good deal, meaning a large margin.

BTW- Who is on a .40nm production process? That is amazing, that's like 1% the size of TSMC's current production process...


Wow, please don't post info when you have no idea on numbers. OEMs did buy up quite a lot of AMD's new inventory but it was not in the "hundreds of thousands."


GF100 will have, roughly, about the same gaming performance advantage as GPGPU, or ~20-40%.


How so? Have you actually compared the REAL specs of GF100...
There are a few places that could actually bottleneck the chip compared to GTX295. I do expect GF100 to be around GTX295 performance and beat it in some cases but not by 30%.


No... 28nm should be ramping at GF before the end of 2010, we probably won't be seeing anything in Q3, though it isn't entirely out of the question, but Q4 seems to be the most probable.


Umm... ATi wasn't the one that started the Flops war, that started a loooong time ago. So how much has been spent on GF100 and R800 R&D? Please share...
ok to be specific dell bought over 100,000, and apple cleaned the warehouse. Feeling better now?
