We just received news that internal roadmaps from ATI have revealed more information about R590. R590 will launch at the beginning of March for $279 (depending on vendor). The R590 ASIC is effectively the Radeon X1900 core, but at a lower clock speed with some disabled features -- the roadmap did not state exactly what has been disabled. Expect to see the card retail as the Radeon X1800 GTO. The roadmap revealed that these cards will come with 256MB of memory.
