Next gen AMD scheduled to appear in Q4 2011, according to interview on Rage3D
Quote:
AMD's Graphics Core Next Gen architecture is scheduled to appear in products due in Q4, 2011, as both Eric Demers and Rick Bergman confirmed for us. It is likely they will use TSMC's 28nm process, and have a dual architecture split like Northern Islands. If so, then this time Cayman VLIW-4 architecture hits the mainstream, and the next generation architecture debuts in the high end - similar to AMD's deployment of VLIW-4 in the Radeon HD 6000 series. This makes sense for compatibility with APUs, if Trinity is using VLIW-4 then the discrete GPUs will need to as well for best compatibility and performance.
