Radeon HD 5870 Aggressively Priced: Report

    According to a fresh report by Donanim Haber, AMD's next performance graphics accelerator,the Radeon HD 5870, codenamed "Cypress" is expected to be aggressively priced, at US $299. At that price, it intends to be highly competitive against GeForce GTX 285 from NVIDIA. The secret-sauce behind the price could be the 40 nm fab process on which the GPU is being built, which allows upping transistor counts while maintaining significantly smaller die-sizes compared to 55 nm.

    There is a great deal of uncertainty surrounding the specifications of the GPU, including what level of performance with existing application could it end up offering. Some sources, such as ChipHell, which are one of the first to leak pictures of components related to various Evergreen family products claim the Cypress GPU to have an almost 100% increase in stream processor counts compared to RV770, while others remain conservative expecting it to be around 50%. With this kind of a pricing, Cypress could trigger market-wide changes in GPU pricing, if it ends up with a good price/performance ratio at $299.

    Cypress is expected to be launched on 22 September, close to two weeks after the company unveils the Evergreen family of DirectX 11 compliant GPUs on September 10. Market availability is expected in October. In related news from the same report, the enthusiast-grade accelerator that uses two of these GPUs, codenamed "Hemlock", is expected to be out in November.

    如果订到399,那nv就大大的松了口气。

    对,现在唯一的解释就是ATI要给NV施压,逼迫NV的中高端全线降价.

    ATI现在很务实,与其在空档期定高价掠夺超额利润,不如把价格调的低调点,实实在在的抢占市场份额。

    Bingo,市场份额现在对AMD很重要。

    ATI已经出招了,就看nv如何接招了。
    是推出40nm的改良版g200,还是索性割肉割到底,一直等到g300出来再开始全面反击。

    40nm的G200现在再开始做的话肯定来不及了,除非NV未雨绸缪之前就开始搞了
