AMD has made an announcement that, at least I did not expect at all. Has reintroduced the AMD 6950, but this new model now includes a small but important change: it has 1 GB GDDR5 instead of 2 GB GDDR5 original model, which we analyzed. AMD 6950 1GB is presented with the only change to the hardware level, which obviously will affect the final performance of the card, obviously the worse.Half the memory but some quantities a few years ago were astronomical. This change also affects its price, reduced from 269-279 to 259 euros. "$ 10 less? From my point of view does not compensate, but to issue a verdict would be better to wait for the analysis that we will in a few weeks.
Similarly, the final prices of each model tend to vary substantially when the catalogs are in stores, so this will be another aspect to consider. So, with this new model will most likely queAMD is preparing to face competition, where for several weeks is rumored that Nvidia will introduce a new model in the coming days.
Will the NVidia GTX 560 which, interestingly, could be to rival the 6870 and 6950 in both performance and price.
