i do come by some sites stating DDR3 / DDR4 though. however i was at AMD.ATI site but couldn't locate what you found (ok la. i admit i didn't spend that much time there as i was about to go out).

google results seem to indicate that there are DDR4 models as well.

like this for example. http://www.vakoo.com/news/1181696044546

came across one too : http://www.madshrimps.be/?action=get...&articID=5 72

my guess is the 1950pro original specifications was DDR3, manufacturers begin to use DDR4 on them.

ermm memory speed guys ?

and how come 1950XT isnt up on the list ?

1950XTX memory runs at 2000MHz DDR. Typo error on ATIAMD's site. You can try reviews from other sites.

There is no 1950XT AFAIK.

another things. why are the Memory Bus Width on BITS instead of BIT?

like for example - "128-bits" instead of "128-bit".

i think its how you use it english haha

Hmm.. Both works in different contexts.

We should use bit in this context - It is a 128-bit memory bus.

And bits in this context - The memory bus is 128-bits wide.

Yes Adrian, which is why when I see the charts. I thought that it should be 128-bit instead of 128-bits.

Just my thought that standalone word should be "bit" and while "bits" usable in phrases as such as the 2nd example you gave.

(yes yes, i know BITS was used on specs on GC reviews too. )

[Adrian Wong]

Hmm.. That's my point. Because we are talking about the width of the memory bus, we used bits, instead of bit.

It's like talking about a highway. I would use lane (singular) when I say it's an 8-lane highway. But if you asked me how many lanes it has, I would say 8 lanes.

Similarly, it is a 128-bit memory bus, but if you ask me how wide is the memory bus, it would be 128-bits. LOL! Confusing, isn't it? Well, that's how I see it.
