According to BSN, it seems that the HD6000 launch is imminent. :D

AMD to launch Radeon HD 6000 Series, "Southern Islands" on October 12, 2010

While nVidia was closing down the GPU Technology Conference, we learned that the company invited a ton of journalists to the event in Los Angeles, CA. The event is none other than the launch of Radeon HD 6000 Series, more known to the world under the codename "Southern Islands".

If what we have being hearing about these cards, there will be no confusion if you catch my drift. :rockout

I wished there were more details about the video ports on the card. Will displayport still be a requirement and will we still need to have three identical monitors to enable bezel correction?

I'm just wondering how performance in eyefinity and crossfire will be handled.

Did they redesign the crossfire bridge to handle resolution over 2560x1600?
Will they have cards with 3 or more DL-DVI ports?
What exactly are the requirements this time for eyefinity?
Are there going to be standard cards with 2GB (or more) of usable VRAM?

I'm just really interested.

Is there going to be a six output card at or near launch or are we going to have to wait another six months for that...?

Midrange AMD HD6000 cards will be launched first to combat Nvidia's mainstream (e.g. gtx460).

If what I have read is true, the 6770 will not be far off the 5870 performance actually, so it will combat the GTX470, if all is according to the spec sheets.

Because we all know that spec sheets represent reality :lol:

Can we expect an Eyefinity 6 card?
I'm probably looking at holding out for Sandybridge now at this point so got some months to spare yet but hope the six output card is still going to feature in the new range.
