Radeon HD 7000 Revealed: AMD to Mix GCN with VLIW4 & VLIW5 Architectures

Stevil can you ban him from the world?

Going back to the topic. To me it seems a really interesting and innovative card such the 5870 was, that's the reason why I'll buy it. Considering also that the GTX 6xx is three quarters away (I think)

Are you sure ?

Take it with a grain of salt, and this is only unconfirmed information from one of my friend working in one of the AIB distro in my country -as a distribution manager, or something like that. GK 104, NVidia's answer to Tahiti, will be here no later than end of Q2 2012, but he didn't expect it arriving before late March or early April next year too. He's quite confident talking about it, and his info has been quite accurate AFAIK.

Then, if we're talking about GK 110, things get much more blur, since this will be one big monster chip, we're gonna see it when NVidia is confident enough with TSMC's 28 nm process. He wasn't all that sure, but his boss has said to expect this monstrosity at early Q4 2012 at the earliest (when everything went totally perfect), and can easily slip to 2013.

No solid info regarding peformance, but he expects GK 104 to be trading blow with Tahiti -and he's quite even handed to both IHVs.

Ofcourse, perhaps all of that are just silly misinformations, can't be assure of anything.
