This could be a rumour - but from all the information provided, leaked and the stellar 5k series that preceded it - this could be true.
It looks as though the mainstream entry from AMD, the 6770 is going to be faster... yes, faster, than the current 5850 cards. If this is true, NVIDIA is in for a next-gen world of hurt.
A <200W part, which could sell for
AMD's own leaked slide says "AMD Radeon 6700 series - twice the horsepower".
Now, if this is true - does this mean the "6870" could be close to 5970 on a single GPU? If so, does this mean the "6970" could be TWICE as fast as the current fastest VGA card on the market, the 5970? Again, if this is true - it's an absolutely amazing achievement from AMD.
Time will tell! Only another month until the 6770 launch - be sure to visit us between now and then for constant commentary up until launch and then our own TweakTown review of the 6k series as they're released!
Stay tuned folks!
