The next chipset by ATI that will be release in 2007, that is ATI RD790 chipset had integrated graphic card that DX 10 supported. This ATI RD790 chipset will support 52 PCIe lanes. This is enough to use until 3 PCIe 16X slots and a 4X slot. Until now was not yet known whether indeed was needed up to 3 PCIe 16X slots but at least can be heard very interesting.
Other feature of ATI RD790 is sound with HTX supported, enabled to be able to add additional card of processor and memory. This process will be pass on chipset and used Hypertransport.
Although the trend at this time is DDR2 but Kingmax launched Kingmax SuperRAM series that used TSOP technology and high quality IC to get high achievement as that always exist on the Kingmax product.
By doing this, Kingmax could give many profits for their consumer from the fungsionality and covered price. However with the amount of falsification of the Kingmax product, made this product a little defect.
Sapphire preparing the project to make dual RV570 in 1 board with internal CrossFire line. This apparently look like Nvidia Quad SLI GX2. This Sapphire dual RV570 graphic card had 2 power connector and a big heatpipe cooler above the second core but only placed 1 fan.
Not yet known how the achievement of this Sapphire graphic card but Sapphire will release this dual RV570 graphic card. This Sapphire dual RV570 graphic card will be longer from the usual graphic card, possibly would along 7950GX2 graphic card.
In the near future, AMD will launch newest dual core processor, Athlon 64 X2 6000+ 3GHz/1MB L2×2 on Q1 2007. Beforehand the processor that named Athlon 64 FX-64, AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ with 90nm process had TDP 89W and 125W. AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ also the processor with the last city code.
Moreover, for Brisbane 65nm family, also gotten AMD Athlon 64 X2 5200+ 2.7GHz/512KB L2×2 and Athlon 64 X2 5400+ 2.8GHz/512KB L2×2 with 512KB L2×2 not 1MB L2×2 like 90nm, so 65nm type increased by speed 100MHz higher to match the achievement reduction because of cache memory reduction. TDP Athlon X2 5200+ decreased from 76W to 65W and for Athlon X2 5400+ from 89W to 76W.
Because ATI Radeon X1300 does not had competitive superiority compared to Nvidia GeForce 7300 then AMD reevaluate this low end product.
