List HD6000series With release date

Sign specifications HD6000series have appeared on Wikipedia. HD6000series specification list is also equipped with a release schedule, Code Name, Price and many more. Lists below include:

HD6350, HD6750, HD6770, HD6850, HD6870, HD6950, HD6970 and HD6990 which uses a dual GPU configuration.

Well in the image above can be seen that there is a VGA type absent among HD64xx, HD65xx, HD66xx. This is quite confusing, if AMD plans to VGA is not present in the near future? No one knows except the AMD itself. Seen also that HD67xx it is rebranded from HD57xx and has specifications very similar to its predecessor without the slightest difference. And besides that AMD did not implement the features of the Double Precision FP on HD67xx and strangely HD6350 actually have it.

It appears also that the HD6850 and HD6870 have a very good price range of $ 199 - $ 250. Certainly will give positive impact to be able to compete throne Nvidia's GeForce GTX 460 both in price and performance. HD6850 has TDP of 114W which is very economical compared to HD5850 (TDP151W) and 768-1GB GTX460 (150-160W TDP). While his brother is only HD6870 has TDP of 146W, this is really good news, it seems that AMD was able to prove the ability of performance per watt through this HD6xxx. Loss of power on this VGA HD58xx significant than its predecessor. As for HD67xx still stagnant, because only a rebranding of HD57xx, the difference is only in naming performance while expected to remain the same as HD5700series.

HD69xx series is expected to have very high performance by looking at the specifications used. And maybe HD69xx will compete directly for face miik Nvidia GTX470-GTX480, both price and performance. And besides HD69xx have low enough power consumption that is around 180-210W.

What is different is the HD6990 which is a dual HD6870 with 2x1280SP by bus for 2x256bit. VGA is quite interesting because it only requires power at 295W TDP. And HD6990 will be equipped with a memory capacity of 2-4GB.

How is Nvidia's strategy to counter AMD's latest weapon is ??....
