Nothing official about it

 

After, what appears to be, two delays, there is still no official info about the HD 5830 which is now delayed even further. Partners are talking about February 16th but this didn't come from AMD directly, nor does AMD talk about it, so nothing is certain. As you know, the HD 5830 was scheduled to launch on January 25th and then it was pushed back to February 5th.

According to Digitimes, AMD's HD 5830 had an issue related to the PCB board circuits and has been postponed to a later date. AMD of course doesn't respond to market rumours or comment on unreleased products, but as always, retail/e-tail and partners are a bit more communicative.

Beside the GDDR5 support and the US $239 suggested retail price that was revealed earlier, there are still no detailed specifications about the HD 5830, but we guess that after this pull and delay everything can be possible and information like the suggested price can also be changed.
