ATi today launched the fastest graphics card on the planet – HD5970. The card features 2x 40nm Cypress cores and has twice the stream processors and ROPs of ATi HD5870. The card consumes 295W of power at full load and around 42W when idle.

Nvidia today for the first time talked about its upcoming GT300 based Graphics Card. The cards will be based on the ‘Fermi’ architecture and have more than 3 billion transistors.

AMD today has finally launched the HD5870 which is the first graphics card available in the market to feature Dx11 along with many new technological advancement.

Today we have few more leaked pictures of the upcoming HD5870. The back of the PCB of the card looks very interesting from the available pictures.

Today we have the leaked pictures of the upcoming ATi HD5870 and also information about ATi HD 5750 and HD5770. Both ATi HD5750 and HD5770 will feature 1Gb of GDDR5 memory and have a memory bandwith of 128bit.

Today more details about AMD’s Dx11 cards have surfaced along with a couple of pictures. According to the preliminary information available the card in the picture is going to be a replace HD4770. The card is based on the RV870 core and has a 6 pin molex power connector slot.

AMD is all set to launch their Dx11 based graphics card next month. The company has decided to publicly announce about the “Evergreen” cards on September 10th.

The Chairman of TSMC, Morris Chang today in a news conference said that the yield from 40nm manufacturing process has now increased considerable to 60% which will thus help the company in delivering goods in high quantity to its clients. A 60% yield means that out of every 100 chips produced by TSMC, only 60 of them are free from any manufacturing defects.

ATi had demonstrated their Dx11 based Graphics Card during the Computex Show in Taipei in early June this year. After that ATi has been keeping mum on their Dx11 supporting, RV8xx core based graphics card.

The back to school season is coming in the U.S and ATi looks all set to take full advantage of it with the Radeon HD4680. The HD4680 graphics card is based on the RV790 core and uses 512MB of GDDR5 memory and is equipped with 640 stream processors and the memory bus bandwith is limited to 256bits.

It has been reported that AMD is disappointed by the performance of its processors in the notebook segment. AMD is now looking for a change and is set to drop the “Better By Design” tagline from its processors and graphics card from September, with the launch of the Tigris Platform for Notebook based on 45nm Dual Core. AMD will instead reform its notebook line-up and call it as AMD ‘Vision’

We already know that ATi HD4770 is a stellar performer and comes at a steal price as well. It is also a known fact that there is a huge demand for the ATi HD4770 and ATi has been unable to meet the high demand. ATi had made sure it had the bare enough stock so as to hard launch the the HD4770 but what it did not forsee was the high future demand. The real manufacturer of the core of ATi HD4770 is TSMC and they are the ones who are unable to meet the huge demand for the card. Since ATi HD4770 is the 1st ever graphics card to be built on 40nm fabrication process and the yield currently is quite low

Asus is soon going to launch the Asus ROG Mars Limited Edition Graphics Card which contains 2xGTX 285 along with a total of 4GB of GDDR3 memory running at 2484Mhz having a memory bus width of 512-bit. The core of both the GTX285 is clocked at 648Mhz along with 480stream processors running at 1476Mhz. All this translates into The Asus ROG Mars Limited Edition graphics card to be faster than 2*GTX295

AMD is expected to announce a price cut next month on the HD 48xx Graphics Card series line-up. The price cut is expected to be upto 50$, thanks to the lower manufacturing costs. The Price cuts arrives before AMD is expected to launch their new Dx11 series of Graphics Card line up during the coming Summer.

AMD’s ATI Radeon E4690 will be the fastest Integrated GPU when launched. The Integrated GPU has 512Mb of GDDR3 memory running at 700 MHz, and supports Dx 10.1, Shader Model 4.0, UVD 2.0 and OpenGL 3.0. ATI’s E4690 is the first integrated GPU to support Dx10.1.
