POSTER: computer news   ||   R600 BASED VIDEO CARD X2X00	DATE:2007-01-18
Being guided by principle better one time to see than one hundred times to hear, many of our readers critically evaluated the design of prototype video card on the base of chip r600. Length on the order of 300 mm, strange combination of power connector frightened away potential buyers. It became then clear that the retail users will deal with another design, whose length will not exceed 230 mm. Today associates were divided with the new portion of information about video cards in the base of chip r600, which they obtained during the exhibition CES 2007 in Las Vegas. First of all, video card on the basis of chip r600 will relate to the series radeon x2x00, about this speak the first references in drivers. AMD developed for partners as minimum four standard designs video card on the base of chip r600;  The longest version with the suffix XTX,  will be equipped with 1 Gb of memory  type GDDR-4 from the production samsung. The rating data of this memory could allow it to operate at the frequency 2.4 GHz DDR, but video card on the basis Of r600 will for sure satisfied by modest frequency. Shorter version video card with suffix XT will have a length of 230 mm and two-stage cooler. The modifications of this version will have 512 mb or 1 Gb of memory type GDDR-4. Decrease in sizes is not a gift: the frequencies of this video card will be lower than in version with suffix XTX. The third version video card on the basis Of r600 will get suffix XL, and with the length of 230 mm and 1 Gb memory of type GDDR-4 it will be satisfied by one stage cooler. Moreover, its frequencies will be higher than in version with suffix XT. For some  reason  r600 XL will be oriented for the OEM sector, and we cannot forecast its wide accessibility in the retail segment in the first months after anoncement if chip r600. Possibly, this modification will be selected the coldest video chips r600, which the first time will be not so much in order to satiate retail market. The use 80 nm technical process for the production of video chip r600 made possible the creation of version video card with the one stage cooler. The very weak version r600 will have the suffix GT in its name, and it will be equipped with memory of type GDDR- E. It is completely possible that the volume of memory will start from  256 mb. The length of printed-circuit board will be also equal to 230 mm. The frequency will be lower than in previous versions. Last three modifications video card on the base Of r600 will require the use of eighth pin power connector. The owners of old power units having 6 pin one can connect these video card through adapter, which will be supplied in the complete set with video caed. However, elder video card XTX with the length of 300 mm,  in the series version will forego the use of eighth pin power connector into the benefit of two 6 pin one, as was made in its time by video card geForce 8800 GTX. It is possible to draw the conclusion that the level of energy consumption for r600 XTX will not exceed 225 W, and video card will correspond to the specifications PCI express 1.x.
