Around the 9th of December, AMD will announce its first Radeon HD 7000M
series graphics processors, beginning with mobile parts (for notebooks).
There will be at least 16 models announced, all based on two silicons:
"Thames" and "Seymour", and being carved out of toggling various
components within those GPUs. The models AMD will be launching will span
across the Radeon HD 7400M series, 7500M series, and 7600M series.
Thames and Seymour are brand new chips built on the 28 nanometer silicon
fabrication process, which will allow AMD more TDP headroom, which it
can use to step up clock speeds.
While we don't have key details such as stream processor, ROP, and TMU
counts, a table based on data compiled by CompuBase.de lists out GPU and
memory clock speeds, memory interface widths, and memory type. The
table also mentions some higher-end GPU models named "Chelsea",
"Heathrow", and "Wimbeldon". By now you know that all these codenames
are after names of places in the UK. That's one way you can identify
Radeon HD 7000M mobile GPUs from the "Southern Islands" Radeon HD 7000
desktop discrete GPU family (named after islands in the southern
hemisphere).
