DailyTech's got the low-down on the upcoming part from ATi that will basically put X1900 chips into user's hands at under $300. Not bad... but I'm still waiting for the next generation. This'll definitely get the overclockers out there all hot with anticipation, though...

"We just received news that internal roadmaps from ATI have revealed more information about R590. R590 will launch at the beginning of March for $279 (depending on vendor). The R590 ASIC is effectively the Radeon X1900 core, but at a lower clock speed with some disabled features -- the roadmap did not state exactly what has been disabled."
