Sub-$200
ATI is preparing an addition to its RV870 generation
codenamed Cypress and this time we are talking about the card codenamed Juniper
that is supposed to sit in between RV740 and RV770 cards.
It is supposed to launch in October time and it should be
priced at under $200. Performance should be a bit lower than HD4890, probably a bit lower than the HD4870, but overall it should be a quite powerful card.
The card looks too expensive to us, as you can buy an HD 4870
for just $135 and HD 4890 for about $200 and ATI will have to work hard to
convince people that DirectX 11 is so important that you have to upgrade today
and not in 2010.
