We shall name that Radeon HD 7990 for now. That said, of course a dual-GPU based Tahiti graphics card is still pending launch. We do expect to see some respins and slightly different SKUs over time, but basically this is the entire lineup. The entire segment from top to bottom is now released in Q1 2012, the 28nm stack has been filled. High-end level = Tahiti = Radeon HD 7900 series.Mainstream level = Pitcairn = Radeon HD 7800 series.Entry level = Cape Verde = Radeon HD 7700 series.Finally there's "Tahiti" which is the codename for the GPU used in the most high-end products. Next in line is "Pitcairn" which is the codename of AMDs the mainstream products and thus the series 7800 tested today. When you notice "Cape Verde" that's the entry level Radeon HD 7700. It's simple really, in the market we have entry level, mainstream and high-end products. You've been hearing several codenames flying around and that can be a little confusing as we always do, let's explain that first.
