We have previously reported that AMD (ATI) will release a new card based on RV670 (Radeon HD 2950). This 55nm built GPU is to fill the performance gaps between the current HD 2600 and HD 2900. It is also a competitor to the NVIDIA 8800GT.
China sticker brand Yeston brings us the photos of a retail pack of HD 2950 Pro. It seems to be made by ATi and has the conventional 6-pin power connector. The card also resembles the HD 2900 series card. The card also comes with CrossFire bridge and DVI-HDMI converter.
