AMD briefed us last week on several new and upcoming technologies and announcements. We’ve covered the AMD Memory announcement, and next up on the list is AMD’s Radeon Mobility HD 7000M. While we were getting this article ready, we also had NVIDIA launch their updated GeForce 600M parts without so much as a brief heads-up email. There’s reasons for that, which we’ll cover in this article, but we’ll start with a look at AMD’s new mobile parts before getting into the NVIDIA update.</p>

So, what will 7000M bring to the table? Right now, not a whole lot that we haven’t already seen before. Traditionally AMD and NVIDIA have launched their new series of graphics products at the high-end and worked their way down. The high-end GPUs are the flag bearers of a generation, with new architectures being built on these large chips first before lesser products are derived from them. If we group the 7000M with the 7000 series in general (or the 600M with the 600 series), both companies are moving to their “next generation” parts on mobile first. Are we looking at a fundamental shift in the way things are done? Not really; read on to find out why.</p>
