Could it be? Only 11 days until the world knows what's under the hood of AMD's new 6k range of graphics cards.

NDA lifts on new 6k AMD range on 22nd Oct? | TweakTown.com

NDA paperwork is starting to come through and it looks like the 22nd is cemented into history as the launch of the AMD 6000 range of graphic cards. While we don't have exact model numbers, our understanding is that the PRO and XT flavours will be coming in, which should carry the 6850 and 6870 names.

While these names seem like a "replacement" of the current HD 5850 and 5870 parts, initial speculation with the name changes suggest these products could fall into the $200 - $250 segment.

Tasty times ahead indeed!

Check back with us in 11 days and we should have some juicy details for to salivate over ;)
