AMD 4850 release and DriverHeaven (p)review

Zardon · Jun 19, 2008, 12:39 PM

Most of you will already be aware that AMD's newest card is the 4850. The original NDA date for this was the 25th of June and we heard from AMD that the launch was brought forward to today due to some USA etailers selling the hardware early.

You may already have seen that some other sites have published small and rather vague "previews" of the hardware today, however as DriverHeaven always strives for maximum quality and we have been instructed by AMD that we are unable to include any detail on the architecture we are aiming for the original launch day of Wednesday the 25th.

This will ensure, as always we will have the most comprehensive and accurate editorial possible for you guys to ascertain whether the hardware is deserving of your hard earned money.
