First ATI R520 spy shots disclosed... - 2005/09/08 16:33 The card you are seeing is the ATI R520 XT. It is a dual slot solution and uses a cooler similar to the Radeo X850. ATI will also offer one-slot versions which will have less performance. There will only be PCI-Express boards. AGP versions are definitely not planned. Internally the chip will use 512-bit memory transfers. However, the external memory interface will still be 256-bit, expect some nice marketing from ATI regarding that feature.

Re:First ATI R520 spy shots disclosed... - 2005/09/08 16:37 Right now the product lineup is as follows (yet unconfirmed somehow but this will provide you a decent idea)...

ATI R520 XT
- 512MB RAM
>> 600 MHz core
>> 650-700 MHz memory
- Dual slot cooling
- Dual DVI

ATI R520 XL
- 256MB RAM
>> 500 MHz core
>> 500 MHz memory
- Single slot cooling
- VGA + DVI

ATI R520 LE
- 256MB RAM
>> 450 MHz core
>> 450 MHz memory
- Single slot cooling
- VGA + DVI

ATI R520 XT CrossFire Edition
- 256MB RAM
>> 600 MHz core
>> 650-700 MHz memory
- Dual slot cooling
- VGA + DVI

I guess we can expect a PRO version in between there soon... It is likely that the ATI R520 will change its name to ATI Radeon X1800 series, the estimated release date for the ATI X900 series is early October. One of these two names is correct my source says, he didn't want to reveal which one though. The October release date is correct.

Re:First ATI R520 spy shots disclosed... - 2005/09/08 16:40 Another remark, check the specs of the ATI R520 XT and the R520 XT CrossFire Edition... Yeps 256MB difference in memory seems a bit strange don't you think?

Re:First ATI R520 spy shots disclosed... - 2005/09/08 18:16 Yeah well The Inq speaks not of the the LE version and this site does... But then again The Inq speaks of a PRO version... So if I take that information as well...

ATI R520 PRO
- 256MB RAM
>> 550 MHz core
>> 600-625 MHz memory
- Single slot cooling
- VGA + DVI

So we will have to see what will be the final release specs in October... If you find any other info please let us know.

Some ATI R520 Images...

Too bad I don't understand anything from that site! Correct me if I'm wrong but does that picture show 1.2ns memory?!

Re:First ATI R520 spy shots disclosed... - 2005/09/09 12:35 Well it is not 1.2ns but 1.26ns that are rated at 800MHz (1600MHz). So that is really nice as it are currenty the fastest Samsung Graphics Memory chips available.
