256-bit, fewer pipes

ATI is about to release a new old card called Radeon HD 4830. It is based on the well-known RV770 chip, and this card will have a 256-bit memory interface.


The key difference from Radeon 4850 will be the pipeline numbers, as ATI plans to cut the pipeline count. We don't know how many branches will be cut, but it will end up will fewer pipes than Radeon 4850 and 4870.

ATI still hasn't made up its mind on the price of such a card, and it will be positioned below Radeon HD 4850 and above HD 4670. It is meant to fight Geforce 9800GT-based cards, which are priced slightly above €100.
