I was just over at Xbitlabs.com and I see they have some rumours on two new GPU's from ATI the RV351 and RV381.
ATI Technologies is set to start sampling of its code-named RV351 chip shortly in order to mass-produce it in late Q4 2003 or, more probably, in Q1 2004. The chip will have 4 rendering pipelines, DirectX 9.0, AGP 8x support and other features of the RADEON 9600 (aka RV350) product line. ATI will redesign the VPU a bit in order to reduce manufacturing costs. Most likely, the main trump of the whole RV350/RV360 VPU family ? their high core-speed ? will not be inherited by the RV351 due to price constraints. Obviously, you should expect some 275 ? 325MHz VPU, 400 ? 500MHz memory and a simple PCB with 64- or 128-bit memory bus.
