Radeon X1650 PRO
The new Radeon X1650 PRO graphics card is based on the RV535 PRO GPU, which has 157 million transistors and is manufactured on the same 90 nm process as the GPU it was based on - the RV530.
The X1650 PRO will run with a core speed of 600 MHz and a memory speed of 700 MHz (1.4 GHz DDR). Since it doesn't need to run at higher memory clock speeds, it only supports up to GDDR3 memory.
It also has four 32-bit memory channels, with a total bus width of 128-bits. This allows it to achieve a maximum memory bandwidth of 22.4 GB/s.
Like previous X16xx graphics cards, the X1650 PRO has 12 pixel shaders and 5 vertex shaders, with 4 ROPs. This allows it to achieve a fill rate of 2400 MTexels/s.
With a price of only $99, the new Radeon X1650 PRO is evidently targeted at the GeForce 7600 series of cards. As ATI stated, they intend to provide better performance for less than what their competitor (NVIDIA) can offer.
Unfortunately, this is yet another soft launch as the cards are NOT available just yet. In fact, we were told that the earliest we can expect to see these cards on the shelves is early October. Like the X1950 XTX, the most you can do right now is pre-order.
