RV670, Radeon HD 2900 Pro update (they're not the same

Rilla927 · Aug 4, 2007

A while back we reported about how ATI was working on a new chip called RV670. This is still very much true, but the report said that it was a mid-end chip, it's not. RV670 is a die-shrink of the R600 with some redistributed resources; a better proportion between shader processors and TMUs and ROPs. Basically this means less shader processors in favor of more TMUs and ROPs, which should seriously improve the gaming performance of the Radeon HD 29XX (the XXs are since we're not sure what it will be called).

Thanks for the update.

You welcome!

I have been stashing links for months now to post over but some may be too old. I try to go back some pages to see if what I'm gonna post has been posted to make sure it hasn't been posted already.

Does the date matter so much as long as it hasn't been posted?

I love my LinkStash bookmarks it will store as much as my disk will hold they say.
