    Ati 8000 series specs leaked

    Just spotted this on overclock.net

    Re: Ati 8000 series specs leaked

    So looking past the obfuscation, just a refresh with newer memory? Disappointing :/ (unless those tflops are realistic)

    Re: Ati 8000 series specs leaked

    I saw a similar chart on another forum,and it listed die sizes. If the specifications and transistor counts are true,then it looks like brand new GPUs.

    IIRC,the other chart listed the HD8970 has having a 420MM2 GPU and the HD8950,HD8870 and HD8850 sharing the same GPU,which was in-between the size of the Tahiti and Pitcairn GPUs.

    Re: Ati 8000 series specs leaked

    Yeah rebadge wasn't the word I meant to use, it all gets a bit blurred and pointless to define anyway I would expect slightly tweaked/optimised compute units, a touch faster freq and improved memory.

    Re: Ati 8000 series specs leaked

    7 series GCN was kind of a square one GPU (in the loosest term possible)that proved very effective, so i wouldn't have expected a massive amount of revolutionary development, more evolutionary.

    Bit of a shame to see the 8950 with a lower memory bus than the 8970, would have been nicer to see the 8950 part of the Curacao family but stripped back. Perhaps AMD has something up its sleeve there....

    It could still be. Don't forget leaks often contain deliberate mistakes - if you ignore the transistor count then there's no reason the 8950 couldn't be a scaled back 8970 with a narrower bus (ala 7870 LE). Alternatively the memory bus could also be a mistake

    Re: Ati 8000 series specs leaked

    One thing I really want is AMD to shrink the PCB lengths. I'm contemplating a mini ITX build, but the cases I have in mind can't take the 79xx cards, which means I have to go to the green team if I want higher end graphics.

    Aye I'll second that one, AMD need to sort out the length of their cards

    Re: Ati 8000 series specs leaked

    My guess based on the GCN 1.1 Bonaire sea island architecture scaled up 3x and 10% improvement from GCN 1.1 to 2.0.

    BF3 1920X1200 4XAA
    122FPS
    270 watts
    430mm2 die

    14% improvement over a GTX Titan.

    It seems the cards will be released to coincide with the BF4 launch:

    Now hang on, that article talks about VI and Hawaii, not the same thing as in this leak.

    If this is true, hopefully we've seen the last of the horrid looking blower coolers.

    Nice find CAT-THE-FIFTH!

    It seems legit. Well as legit as the internet gets. Interesting JPEG name too.

    If ATI announce the card at E3 the release could be only weeks away.

    Well I think I'll be selling my GTX680 then. I have the 7970 as well which I much prefer. Just hope they get the drivers right from the beginning this time
