R520 will be launched within a week and in difference to what many rumours said the card will not be equipped with 24 or 32 pixel pipelines. Not until R580 is launched we will see so many pixel pipelines with a Radeon graphic card. The most interesting is that R580 is apparently already ready and being tested by ATi. On a information picture from ATi HKEPC has gotten their hands on it says R580, R520, RV530 and RV515 are ready to be launched this fall. But most likely we’re talking about a launch at the start of 2006 for R580.
