[Rumour] ATI Radeon HD 5870 Eyefinity delayed to end of March
The ATI Radeon HD 5870 Eyefinity edition, which has been demonstrated all the way back in November 2009, was finally set to see release next week. However, Fudzilla's sources from Cebit claim ATI have once again delayed the HD 5870 Eyefinity. The new release date is said to be end of March.

Fudzilla suggests that the delay may be due to driver tweaking. However, considering the main core remains pretty much unchanged from the 6-month old HD 5870, there might be a different reason. End of March seemingly fits in well with Nvidia's big Geforce GTX 400 series release on March 26th.

Nvidia: OEMs demand rebrands
Answering strong criticism following the recent Geforce GT 300 series releases, Nvidia have blamed large OEM outfits as the reason for Nvidia's much criticized rebranding policies. The Geforce GT 330, for example, is based on the G92 chip, and has been known as no less than 8800 GT, 8800 GS, 9600 GSO, 9800 GT, GTS 240, and now GT 330 with minor variations.

Nvidia argues that such products are only part of the OEM space, which isn't particularly true. Once again, the higher end G92, 65nm 8800 GTS to 9800 GTX to 55nm 9800 GTX+ to GTS 250 are all based on much the same product - and these aren't OEM exclusive parts either.
