In the run up to any major launch we always have ‘leaks' on the net and insider info making their way into the public domain. The first picture of what appears to be AMD's HD6870 has just leaked on the net.
This image was posted on Chinese ‘pokemon looking' tech website it.com.cn from an unknown source. What we see however is that the ATI branding has been ditched, as expected.
The rear of this card shows two DVI-I ports, HDMI port and two MiniDisplay Ports. Information translated shows that the card will support AMD's Eyefinity multi monitor technology, although how many individual displays the five connectors can power is not yet confirmed.
The HD6870 is based around the Barts Pro GPU and will be paired up with a HD6850 for launch.
KitGuru says: Obviously KitGuru will have more information on the cards, when AMD break their NDA, but for now, the chinese leaks keep flooding in.
Well I dont know about anyone else, but I think its fucking fantastic they still have stock of their tiny red fans. awesome 🙁
funnily enough I said to a friend last week. “I can’t see them using those shitty red fans, from the 1 billion stock they bought in 2005”
Sapphire and XFX will be loving this. time to make a fortune from third party cooler designs, YET AGAIN !
That sticker looks photoshoped to me.
I can’t see AMD sticking to this crappy cooling design, for the third generation? come on, seriously. no. and i mean no.
a new amd-foil is surfaced, with new details after the rebranding, over the other gpus

Im thinking… people seem to be thinking oh no theyre rebranding the 5770 to a 6770 etc… well theres also some people relating them going back to the 4xxx naming scheme. Guess what that means? No 67xx series… although we may see at a later date a 28nm card such as the 4770… any takers??
