TheInquirer has just received word from their mole about ATI's New R300 chipset
Here's what their mole is saying
ATI WILL TAKE Nvidia on big time by introducing an R300 that will have DirectX 9 support. The card is an NV25 killer while ATI's lower market model the RV 250 which many assumed to be an NV17 killer now has large speed advantages over Nvidia's offering.While clock speeds are still under waraps, the RV250 will be spawned from the R200, currently branded as the Radeon 8500.
Whle Nvidia is readying its cards for launch in the next fortnight or so, as revealed on Friday, it is still to finish its work to take advantage of DirectX 9.
Samples of the R300 will go to ATI partners in the next two weeks and R&D teams are preparing their card designs.
The ATI R300 will be faster and cheaper than NV25, also known as GeForce 4.
So warp to the TheInquirer for the low down on ATI's R300
