Early Q3
AMD has a new IGP chipset and it is an evolution that will get a better IGP core in an improved version of AMD 790G chipset. We are talking about the mainstream chipset market where AMD expects to have new 785G ready for early Q3 launch.
The new IGP chipset has 500MHz GPU integrated but this time it´s DirectX 10.1 capable. Currently available, AMD 780G has DirectX 10 core clocked at the same 500MHz and UVD video engine 1.0.
The 785G will come with UVD2 video engine, HDMI capability and PCIe 2.0 support. The new chip stays within the 15W TDP and it interconnects with SB710 Southbridge. It should be slower than AMD's 790GX chipset but then again it will also cost less money.
