AMD Readies Radeon HD 5830, Seals Upper-Mainstream Gaps

[Hector Ruiz]

While NVIDIA is waiting to the Fermi architecture to go into mass production AMD is already up to a high tempo on the same market. Days from now it launch the first budget cards of the Radeon HD 5600 series, but by the end of the month, on January 25th, it will unveil a new addition to the Radeon HD 5800 series. AMD follows the scheme from the Radeon HD 4000 family and the card will be called Radeon HD 5830.

Exact specifications, as in the number of shader processors or clock frequencies, are still unclear. Our sources suggests that Radeon HD 5830 will use GDDR5 memory and offer performance on the line of AMD's Radeon HD 4890 card, but at a lower price.

We're guessing the design will be the same as the more powerful siblings, but even if the price hasn't been set it would be nice with a card from the Radeon HD 5800 series that costs less that $200. In a few weeks we will know more.

I vreme je, rupa izmedju HD5770 i HD5850 je velika, i u performansama i u ceni.

Da li ovo znaci da je i dalje proizvodni proces problem, tj. imaju "dovoljno" neispravnih cipova da naprave celu seriju?
