R600 Launch on April 23rd to 24th in Tunisia
Finally a date appeared at the internet on that the huge launch of AMD/ATI's latest chip, the R600 will take place. And it won't happen anywhere near you I guess because someone decided to let all this happen in the capital of the North African state Tunisia, Tunis. The reason for that is unknown but I guess it makes it very hard for a potential thief to get away with one of the most sought-after graphics card in the world today. Either you have to swim right through the Mediterranean Sea or you end dried up to the bones in the Sahara Desert.
Anyway, TheInquirer still insists that the mass production of the R600 will be in 65nm whereas the GDDR3-cards at the launch were made using a 80nm process.
Note by W1zzard: This will not be the launch date. At this date the NDA press briefings are scheduled, which will be before the launch so press has time to prepare their articles.

Look at all the work put into ATi tool, without charging anyone or putting any ads in it :)
It's very much deserved, it's just a figure of speech.
Thats cool as hell they would send him to an exotic place for a few days then hand him the latest line of cards as a parting gift. Shows the respect and trust they have for the Wizzard:respect:
:D
