The latest ATI Catalyst driver set has been dissected by some industrious nerds, and they have come up with some juicy info.
Either the ATI HR department is planning a nice holiday for the staff, or the next ATI GPU refresh will be named after a set of Caribbean islands. The names ‘Antilles’ and ‘Caymen’ have cropped up, prompting speculation that these will be the names of the new flagship chipsets from AMD ATI – the HD 6000 series.
MyGaming had previously reported that the next series of AMD ATI GPU’s would not make a significant leap in terms of technology, and would merely be a refinement of the current generation of HD 5000 series chips.
MyGaming also reported that a mole has leaked info regarding the shipment date of the HD 6000 range. Consumers can expect these cards before the end of 2010 (just in time for Christmas we bet).
