In related news, the motherboard makers indicated Rival ATI Technologies’ R520 is still facing power-leakage and heat-dissipation issues.

R520 = NV30 - Nvidia + ATI?

 

[fiddlestick]

geforce 8 will be out before r520 :lol

ati sure is busy on all fronts. They are going to provide graphic cards for xbox 360 and revolution and they are going to release new pc cards.

nVidia has conquered again the leadership of the PC market.
Ati really needs to deliver nowadays.

Pretty soon PC cases are gonna have to work like refrigerators if CPU's and GPU's can't stay cool. :lol

I'm sure they're focusing on Xenos GPU (I bet Microsoft has paid them well )

A seperate team worked on the R520.

ATi has been juggling a lot though, that is for sure. When is the R520 due to be announced? I need to make up my mind if a new PC is on my shopping list this year or not, and it'd help to see what they're offering.

I was thinking about this too and then I decided that I should better get the X360. Cheaper than PC upgrade, I'll probably hold up one year more till upgrading my PC (I guess I'll have to buy a new pc anyway)

Nvidia is sitting back and thinking.. "Man, it was hard enough playing the juggling act with one console gpu and the desktop market.. and those mofos wanna try 3 major releases in 1yr?? Crazy."

EDIT: I should really say 4 major releases.. R600 will probably be expected for release before Revolution anyway.
