Images of a prototype AMD R600 have surfaced on the net thanks to ZDNET writer David Berlind. He published some images of an AMD R600 graphics card captured at an AMD press conference. The pictures show the upcoming R600 GPU in all it's glory. Luckily he managed to snap five images before the bouncers at the AMD press conference roughed him up for taking low quality pictures of their new baby.
The size certainly looks enough to impress any 8800GTX owners out there. Check out the stock cooling. It must pump out some heat as it looks to be using a fairly heavy duty heatsink and fan. The writer did have permission to take the snaps (we were just kidding about the AMD bouncers, they really are nice guys you know) so we must presume they are legit.
