AMD Radeon HD 7950 3GB Launched!
As expected, AMD have just launched a slightly cut-down version of their next-generation high-end GPU, the Radeon HD 7970 GPU. This new Radeon HD 7950 is manufactured on the same cutting-edge 28nm processs and also features the unbelievable 4.3 billion transistor Tahiti XT core, albeit with four Compute Units disabled, and thus relabeled Tahiti Pro. This GPU variant features 1792 Stream Processors, 112 TMUs, and an identical number of ROPs, tessellators, cache and memory controllers as the Radeon HD 7970. With a 800MHz engine clock, and 3GB of 5000MHz GDDR5 connected to a 384-bit memory interface, this card is almost as much of a beast is its bigger brother.
This new GPU is definitely a fantastic counter to the increasingly cheaper GeForce GTX 580, and at $449 it has the price and performance to beat it in every respect.
