ATI R520 Graphic Cards Coming in Q3
According to DigiTimes' sources, ATI will launch R520 graphics cards in Q3. Don't count your chickens however, since these cards have been already delayed a number of times. I find it highly likely they will not be able to beat Nvidia's G70 in performance due to the delays.
ATI has informed its clients in Taiwan that it will gradually begin volume shipments of its R-series GPUs, including the R520, RV530, RV515 and RV505 by the end of the third quarter. R-series GPUs are fabricated at Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), using a 90nm processing technology, according to the sources.
