ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4830 and 4860 are first 40 nm graphics cards

ATI just announced the laptop graphics cards Mobility Radeon HD 4830 (DDR3/GDDR3) and 4860 (GDDR5), that are the first cards in the market manufactured using a 40 nm process. This could enable using them in 15″ laptops without problems. Interestingly, in spite of belonging to the most powerful series (4800), they use a 128-bit memory bus, while the 4850 and 4870 cards use a 256-bit memory bus. I hope to find benchmarks soon!
