It is not exactly a surprise, but EA is preparing yet another Need for Speed title. There is a teaser trailer designed to promote the next Need for Speed.
The teaser trailer shows a pimped and stitched car getting ready to hit the track, and a crash of that car. It is not exactly educational, but neither are any other Need for Speed game. A countdown to May 31 is also available on the same web page. We can’t wait to see what the final title of the game will be and we’re also hoping for a new trailer by then.

Sources close to AMD confirmed that there is an R670 chip on their roadmaps and we learned that this is a 65 nanometre part. We heavily suspect that this is just a renamed R650 chip or a 65 nanometre R600 scheduled for Q3 2007.
We are trying to get more details about this 65 nanometre chip and we are aware that ATI also has the RV670 chip that is set to replace the X1950PRO line of the cards. A few sources already confirmed the existance of the RV670 chip but our original source couldn’t.
