Radeon X1650GT: a bargain?

ATI releases more GPUs using 80 nm fabrication process. The manufacturer will announce soon the Radeon X1650GT based on RV560. The product will be right between the Radeon X1650Pro and X1650XT. Compared to the latter, the Core/memory duo is clocked at 575MHz/675MHz instead of 450MHz/600MHz.
Even if it isn’t extremely powerful, the MSRP of $75 could be really interesting especially thanks to the pretty similar memory frequency (-11%) and the possibilities of core overclocking. Now, we will have to find out whether if the number of units will be identical to the higher end version. FYI, the price of the Radeon X1650XT is around 135€.
