While the ATI's DirectX 11 supporting Cypress Radeon HD 5800 series cards were expected last Friday, information about more cards in works crops up. DigiTimes reported that ATI will launch Juniper codenamed Radeon HD 5770 and HD 5750 graphics cards in October and HD 5870 X2 in November.

The highly anticipated ATI Radeon HD 5850 and HD 5870 graphic cards are now buzzed to be released on Sept. 22 as per the sources at graphics card makers. The DirectX 11 supporting ATI Radeon HD 5750 is Juniper LE and Radeon HD 5770 is Juniper XT. AMD is said to have assigned card specific codenames like Cypress, Juniper, Redwood, Cedar and Hemlock to its DirectX 11 compatible cards.

AMD has 40nm GPUs packed Cypress in its high end offerings. VR-Zone stated that Juniper LE Radeon HD 5750 is codenamed as Corvette and the Juniper XT Radeon HD 5770 has been codenamed as Countach. Both cards will be loaded with 1GB GDDR5 video memory with 128-bit memory interface. Both these Juniper cards will possess most features of Cypress cards such as based on 40nm GPU, multi-monitor Eyefinity technology, ATI Stream UVD 2.0 and will fall in more "affordable" price range.

In addition to Radeon HD 5000 series desktop graphics cards, ATI will also introduce ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5000 series graphics for notebooks. Just like the desktop cards, ATI will bring Mobility Radeon HD 5800 for high-end segment, HD 5700 for performance segment, HD 5600 for mainstream and HD 5400 for entry-level notebooks.

Let's wait to see if AMD introduces DirectX 11 based graphics cards by the end of this month or in the next month when Windows 7 is expected to launch.

I like that AMD-ATI introduced the 5800 series, but maybe NVIDIA and Intel, especially NVIDIA may come with more powerful card, maybe around 3.2Tflops with more Pixel Fillrate and Texture Fillrate. So i suggest to ATI-AMD to introduce a well optimized and bug free drivers for their cards if they want to sell well and of course low prices!
