There was an immeasurable distance between the quick and the dead: they did not seem to belong to the same species; and it was strange to think that but a little while before they had spoken and moved and eaten and laughed - W. Somerset Maugham

Radeon X1950 XT to launch on Friday
Radeon X1950PRO today
Tue Oct 17 2006, 13:14
ATI IS set to release two cards in the same week. Today it will announce the Radeon X1950PRO card based on RV570
chip and by the end of the week it will announce Radeon X1950 XT card.
This is the new card for sub-$300 price segment clocked at 625MHz engine and 900MHz memory. When ATI says 900MHz that usually means 1800MHz in DDR mode. The memory is 256-bit DDR 3.
The card is based on the R580 chip and has 256MB of memory. We believe that this one is set to fight Geforce 7950 GT cards while the RV570, Radeon X1950PRO should take on Nvidia's 7900 GS cards.
You should be able to grab Radeon X1950XT from Friday. µ
