Interesting that they are using 4 DDR chips per GPU as opposed to 8 on the single 4870.... they are obviously 128 MB rather than 64MB chips....leaves the door open for a future 1 GB 4870 card though.

I'm counting 16 memory chips, 8 per side. There have been rumors that this card treats it's memory as a single frame buffer.
