X1900 256Mb Memory Coming Soon

[cbecknet]

The Inq. seems to believe that a 256Mb version of the X1900 will be coming out soon. They say a week or two. Which might bring it out just before the 7900.

i want to see how it performs. if it is faster than the 7800gtx and at a lower price point, nvidia would have no choice but you lower prices or launch the g71 sooner

I doubt it would be under the 1900 nomenclature. More likely to be a mid-end varinat of the R580, X1700 maybe? IDK, just what I think.
