Yes. It's recently been announced that it will be called the x1800 xt/pro/xl
and will be based on the R520 chipset. there are million rumours floating
around about weather it will be 16/24/32 pipelines and various clock speeds
etc... should be as good or better than the 7800gtx, but we will have to
wait and see.

scheduled for realease within a month.

have a look at anandtech.com , theinquirer.net or rage3d.com (go to the
forums there, look under "general radeon discussion", and there is a sub
heading called R520 Rumors. there are HEAPS of views/bits of info in there.

I think the R520 will have 16 pipes, and the R580 will have 24

anandtech have some supposedly official stats on the r520 confirming it is a
16 pipe card. the R580 could be 24 or even 32 pipes.
