Rumours said AMD cutting R&D budget.
Hopes 3870x2 won't be the only high end card launching next year. They need more to compete with nVidia. Do you guys agree? This post has been edited by ahsiah: Dec 20 2007, 09:46 PM |

Now what ATI gonna fit in between a single 680 chip & the dual 680 chip, because there are quite a gap there.
May be lower clock, handicap dual 680? This post has been edited by billytong: Dec 21 2007, 10:42 AM |

From what I read from somewhere (sorry for no source given), the card will have lower clock and only ddr3. I hopes this is not going to be truth.
