"The world is at its knees because of financial crisis
threatening to surpass the great depression of '29 and at times like
these even the large manufacturers do change their marketing
strategies in order to cope. AMD and NVIDIA gained momentum by
releasing products that have high price/performance ratio, and while
the older models are constantly reevaluated, the new ones that are
being released have even lower prices and grater performance. While in
the low end NVIDIA cease not releasing pleiad of cards based on the
extremely successful G92 core, that does not change the fact that its
nearly year and a half old, thus AMD chose to approach the low-mid
class with a tad different strategy. And it is best presented by the
new ATI HD 4770 512MB GDDR5, based on the RV740 - the very first 40nm
TSMC technology core. So, let's see what exactly we've got here before
us, what indeed for that lucrative recommended price of only $99."
