News of the RV351 and RV381

Some interesting <A HREF="http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/video/display/20030904052815.html" target="_new">INFO</A> @ Xbit labs about ATI's next-gen Low and Mid-level cards.

So and RV380 and an RV381. I think the numbering scheme is going to start sucking again in the 'code-name' versions if these are the figures. RV351 < RV350 and RV381 < RV380. Oh well, here to just hoping they arrive on time or early!

I wonder what kind of price this part will offer, and wether it will be closer to the performance of a Radeon 9600 or closer to to a GeForce FX 5200 Ultra. I hope its actually quite a fast card for a low-end mainstream user. I guess a DX9 capable Radeon 9xxx "MX" so to speak. If its about $100 it should finally replace the old GeForce4 Ti4200 as the card of choice for budget conscious buyers, especially if its DX8 performance is up to par as well. Even though I drool over the high-end stuff, I can't help but drool over the mainstream getting a good bang/for/buck card. One reason is because game developers will feel more sercure building better game engines if there is more standard issue hardware available to run such programs. I can't wai to seee what the future hold man!

My OS features preemptive multitasking, a fully interactive command line, & support for 640K of RAM!

Radeon 9400 can still be used for brand naming the Rv381

There's also the R9300 isn't here or has it also already been assigned? I don't follow the low end as much as mid-high.

Anywhoo, it's probably going to be the R9600LE(-) or something obtuse like that.
