ATi will be introducing the R580+ models namely Radeon X1950XTX and Radeon X1950 CrossFire edition and a 256M Radeon 1900XT in August 2006.

The Radeon X1950XTX is based on R580+ core and has 512MB GDDR4. The Radeon X1950 CrossFire Edition will also be announced right after the X1950XTX.

In a few more days, ATi will also release a 256M version of the Radeon X1900XT.

According to the inquirer it is only 7% faster than the X1900XTX. It's still unable to outperform a "single" 7950GX2

I bet you'll see some Powerpoint slides from ATI that claim otherwise

no doubt - but i'll totally agree with you if you say "Turbo Cache Surely Sucks"

on the other hand my 6200 TC actually works very well for me to play CS and RO on my 2ndary rig. i get close to 10k 3dmark01 for this budget card.

the TC there still indicates that it's a low-end version but it tends to mislead.
