AMD Announces Radeon HD 8970M High-End Mobile GPU

AMD Announces Radeon HD 8970M High-End Mobile GPU

AMD is announcing its Radeon HD 8970M today. We say "announcing" instead of launching because this chip is essentially a rebadged HD 7970. It wasn't initially clear if this would be the case -- the HD 7790, which the company launched back in March, is based on a new design has a few small feature changes that have led it... Read More

AMD announced its earnings today, with figures that generally reflected to poor state of the entire PC industry. Normally, this is where I'd delve into those figures and run the numbers.

Monday, April 08, 2013 - by Joel Hruska in News
AMD has confirmed that Battlefield 4 will be part of its upcoming "Never Settle" bundle. The game isn't supposed to drop until late 2013, which means AMD is announcing a coupon package well in advance of the actual title. This isn't the first time a manufacturer has taken this step, but it's been quite awhile -- the last... Read More

Friday, February 15, 2013 - by Joel Hruska in News
AMD has yet to make an official statement on this topic, but several unofficial remarks and leaks point in the same direction.  Contrary to rumor, there won't be a new GCN 2.0 GPU out this spring to head up the Radeon HD 8000 family.

For The Last Time, Tablets Didn't Catch AMD or Intel "flat-footed"

Tuesday, December 04, 2012 - by Joel Hruska in News
There's a bit of quoted wisdom that's been making the rounds in tech news, recently. Up until now, I've ignored it, in the hopes that it would die out and go away.
