Radeon 3690 sneak peek
only 4 memory chips.
Source said 3690 is closing to the launch date, so they begin to release some pics. The card actually is a shrink version 3850. like 8800GS and 8800GT, HD 3690′s memory size is cut to half, only 256MB. The memory interface is only 128bit. But its GPU is still a RV670 Pro, not thing changed.
The card in the picture is a non-reference version HD 3690. The rumored price will be around 110 USD. According to the performance of 9600GT in our hand, HD 3690 still have a long way to go. But if the price is right, it will hit NVIDIA hard.
The brand on the cooler shows the card is made by Triplex.
The core. Still a RV670Pro
Because of the GPU, GPU-Z wrongly recognized it as a HD 3850

If they can be Nvidia (low mem bus but higher performance) then be 128 bit. Else try to use bigger mem bits.

In the awesome scheme of things you’ll get a B- just for effort. Where exactly you actually lost us was first in all the facts. You know, it is said, the devil is in the details… And that couldn’t be much more accurate at this point. Having said that, let me inform you just what did deliver the results. Your writing is certainly really engaging and that is probably why I am making the effort to opine. I do not make it a regular habit of doing that. Next, despite the fact that I can notice the jumps in reasoning you come up with, I am not necessarily sure of just how you appear to connect the ideas that make the conclusion. For now I will, no doubt yield to your position however hope in the near future you actually link your dots better.
