Associate reports that AMD can put off the announcement of RV630 for eliminating some problems at chip level , delay will be four weeks relative to initial period. Mass production of video card on base of RV630 with such problem will be in June.
As reasons for the delay mentioned is the need to release the revision a03 of video chip g84 and G86. Let us note that NVIDIA is not very interested in the fast announcement Of g84 and G86, ( There is no competitors to these video chips ), and from sale of chip g80 for video card geForce 8800 GTX and GeForce 8800 GTS nvidia company obtains larger profit.
Information about the delay of announcement for RV630 and G84/g86 requires checking; .
Associate added that besides the announcement delay OF RV630 to the middle of May was provided a delay for the announcement OF RV610 to the end of May.

If this information is accurate, video card on base of RV630 and RV610 will be available only in June, when will start the exhibition computex 2007. AGAIN ANOTHER AMD ANNOUNCEMENT DELAYED
