HKEPC reports AMD is once again renaming another ATI product. This time around AMD is renaming the RV370 graphics core which powered ATI Radeon X300, X550 and X600 graphics cards.
The value oriented product will be renamed and have a single model—the ATI Radeon X1050. Current RV370 based products can be converted to ATI Radeon X1050’s with a simple graphics BIOS update.
Features of the ATI Radeon X1050 will be similar to other RV370 graphics cards. Supported features include DirectX 9 and shader model 2.0. As with other RV370 based cards the ATI Radeon X1050 will have four pixel shaders and two vertex shaders. AMD ATI Radeon X1050-based graphics cards are expected to have a 400 MHz core clock. Memory is expected to clock in at 400 MHz on a 128-bit bus.
Expect the ATI Radeon X1050 to show up in OEM and then retail very soon.
:p 通通升级成Mobility X1050
立刻变成X1K系列啦。还是ATi厚道，看来以后得跟ATi了，有事没事老卡给你来个升级，连BIOS都不用自己刷作者: 阿蓝2代 时间: 2006-12-12 21:37

According to our source, the next-generation AMD RS690 IGP is approaching its final stage of design, where the design has been stepped into version A12. On a meanwhile, most of the manufactures have already got their board design ready, so the product is soon to be available on time in early 2007. In addition, RS690 will be fabricated in 80nm process by UMC’s Fab 12A, according to the white paper. Although, TSM will remain to be the main manufacturer of AMD chipset in the future, but it’s expected that more and more AMD chipset will be fabricated by UMC. Indeed, 80nm AMD RV516 and RS535 have already been manufacturing by UMC’s Fab12A, and some 90nm products are given to UMC’s Fab8F. The change in manufacturing proportion between TSMC and UMC has been drawn into a great concern in the market.
Soon after the completion of acquisition, AMD revealed the company’s plan to merge ATI’s chipset under the brand of AMD. The brand of graphic division of ATI is the only one be kept exceptionally. The previous ATI Radeon Xpress 1250 has been renamed as AMD 690G Chipset with ATI Radeon X1250 Graphics.
Being the world first IGP with build-in HDMI, the AMD 690G is a host of technologies that provide a thorough solution for digital home. These include Radeon X700 graphical core, which support for Direct X9.0, Shader Model 2.0, AVIVO, H.264 and VC1 for video encoding and decoding, Blu –Ray and HD-DVD. However, Hyper-Transport in AMD 690G remains in version 1.0 that restrict the maximum transfer rate at 2GT/s. Additionally, AMD 690G provides 1 PCI-E x16 and 4 PCI-E x1, and is coupled with SB600.
RS690 is packaged in 21mm x 21mm 465FCBGA, which is Pin to Pin compatible to IGP RS485. Therefore, it’s said some RS690 PCB is designed for both of them for cost saving. Furthermore, RS690 has also got a branch of family suit for each market, besides RS690C which has no TMDS support, there also are 3 for mobile platform: RS690M, RS690MC for low profile without TMDS support, and RS690T for high performance with Sideport Memory support.
Most of the tier 1 manufactures including ASUS, Gigabyte, ECS and MSI has announced their plan for RS690 product and soon to release them in early 2007.
