Hello Everyone,



Since the RV770 GPU's initial arrival, we have seen the technology used in
the GPU creep up and down AMD's product stack. At first, the RV770 powered
only the ATI Radeon HD 4850 and 4870, but soon thereafter two RV770's were
linked together to form the current flagship Radeon HD 4870 X2, and then the
GPU was scaled down to form the Radeon HD 4600, 4500, and 4300 series of
products. Ultimately, AMD ended up with competitive offerings at virtually
every price point ranging from $39 on up to over $550. But there is an
approximate $80 price gap between the $160-ish Radeon HD 4850 and roughly
$80 Radeon HD 4670 that AMD plans to fill today with the release of the
Radeon HD 4830.



As its name suggests, this latest addition to the Radeon HD 4800 series is
similar to the Radeon HD 4850. In fact, the reference designs look almost
identical. The 4830, however, has had a couple of SIMD arrays disabled, and
hence has fewer active stream processors and TMUs. Head on over to the site
and check it out:
