Fairly old news, but I figured I would post it anyways.
While we were at Computex 2008, we were told by at least 3 ATI partners that the Radeon HD 4870 was not ready for launch anytime soon. We were also told that ATI had decided to delay the launch of their Radeon HD 4850 graphics card from June 18 to June 25, 2008. At first, we figured that ATI pushed back the Radeon HD 4850’s launch date to avoid the launch of the NVIDIA GTX 280 and GTX 260 graphics.
