HD 5830 spotted

[CAT-THE-FIFTH]

It looks like the HD5830 may have a similar power consumption to an HD4830:

Here is the actual web-page for the cooler:

Looks like an HD5890 is also in the works.

Top detective work there Mr Moose!

5950 is also in the works AFAIK.

It looks like the HD5830 will probably be launched in the first week of Feburary at 239 USD:

Also it seems that ATI is also working on a refreshed RV870:

both of which are listed on that page, but nothing officially announced on the ati site that i can find.......odd,

and if that price of $239 is straight converted to somewhere in the region of £145 give or take a few quid, it's a card i might well be intrested in as i couldnt justify a full fat card.

It seems the HD5830 will probably have 1280 stream processors:

This means the new card would have performance similar to a GTX275 or perhaps a GTX285.

It seems the card will use the same PCB as the HD5850:

Given that the 5850 is ~ £220 minimum and the 5770 is about £130 maximum I'd guess they'll target £170ish (~ $200 before tax, I guess) - they don't have anything new at that price point.

... if that price of $239 is straight converted to somewhere in the region of £145 give or take a few quid ...

You have to remember that list prices in America are usually given without local sales taxes, so you need to add 17.5% VAT == £170ish!!!

Woo! I amz teh ORAKEL!!!

sorry, slightly over-excited there...

[Pob255]

Damb that sound like a nice card, I hope the UK price will be closer to £150

[CAT-THE-FIFTH]

It would have been nice if the card had been shorter but it looks to be longer than an HD4830 or HD4850. Looks like I will have to stick with an HD5770 or whatever Nvidia comes up with if it is short enough! Around 9 inches in length would have been ideal!!

Indeed it would

always add vat on afterwards, force of habit @ work. although no longer there after last friday so may have to wait a month or 2

Indeed it would

oh errrrr missus

Am I the only one that thinks ATI have far too many graphics cards? I actually find it confusing. They have the 5450, 5550, 5570, 5670, 5750, 5770, 5830, 5850, 5870, 5970. I don't follow ATI closely so I may be ignorant on this matter but that's just not necessary at all.

[Blaineoliver]

Yeah but how easy is it go work out which is fastest, and which is slowest?

[liquidmetal]

Wonder how it would clock with the reduced shaders. Price seems a bit too close to the 5850 though.
