Since we are drawing closer to June 16th, official date for the launch of the new Radeon 300 series graphics cards, it does not come as a surprise that we now have a first picture of the Radeon R7 370 graphics card, which will feature a compact PCB and be based on AMD's Pitcairn GPU.
Leaked at Chiphell Forums, the Radeon R7 370 will be a mainstream graphics card with US $149 or lower price tag which will feature a compact PCB and be based on AMD's well known Pitcairn GPU, which was a part of AMD's Radeon R9 270 lineup. It should pack 1280 Stream Processors, 80 TMUs and 32 ROPs and be paired up with either 2GB or 4GB of GDDR5 memory with 256-bit memory interface.
According to the leaked slide, AMD's R9 370 will be a direct competition for Nvidia's GTX 750 Ti and offer up to 20 percent better performance. As you can see from those leaked pictures below, the cooler shroud will have a similar pattern design as on the earlier leaked liquid cooled Fury flagship.
The entire Radeon 300 series lineup is yet to be confirmed and we are still not clear which GPU will be a part of its, but according to earlier leaks, Hawaii, Pitcairn and Tonga are current candidates.
