Inquirer:

Is X950XT the name of ATI's R520?

Chinese website might have answers

PC POP might have some interesting answers to our no less interesting questions.

According to this article on the Chinese website, ATI's next generation card, the one with 512MB memory that should be released at a Texan Gaming party, the R520, will probably be called the X950XT.

In performance terms, it will be at least four times quicker than a X800Pro which was itself four times faster than a 9800se.

Moreover, it seems that the memory and core speeds will be 900MHz and 750MHz respectively; the latter figure being actually quite high. As for the vendor ID, 0x1046 corresponds to IPC Corporation LTD. That's all folks. µ

The Inquirer is probably picking up on the 'info' that is most likely fake. but anyway, the R520 should be announced within the coming weeks. or at most, a few months.

I thought there weren't going to be any more PC games after HL2 and WoW.
