    AMD taping out Southern Island already?

    If this is true I can only imagine what will happen to Nvidia. They might be beaten at every price point and performance point if this refresh comes out this fall. If the demo is in the next month or so as stated, many people may just hold out and see what performance gains the refresh holds...
