@ 2011/02/28The graphics card we will be focussing our attentions on today is the
HD6950, which we covered in great depth on release. The Cayman GPU that the
card is based on features AMD's new refined VLIW4 architecture, boasting a
total of 96 texture units, upgraded render back for improved anti-aliasing
performance, and an enhanced tessellation engine. The HD6950 only features
88 of those texture units and 1408 stream processors out of a potential 1536
which the fully unlocked HD6970 sports. The main advantage is significantly
reduced power consumption, making the HD6950 a very capable card.
