    nVidia GT300's Fermi architecture unveiled: 512 cores, up to 6GB GDDR5

    If GF100 is as strong as expected: 6GB GDDR5 might not be enough for Tesla-model and it's scientific calculations. Games just can't utilize full potential of GPUs. Some single-G200 quadros already have 4GB vram for a reason ;).

    Fermi huh? Supposed code name for GT300

    http://vr-zone.com/articles/-rumour-nvidia-gt300-architecture-details-revealed/7763.html?doc=7763 According to this..the codename would be GF100. GPU would have over 3B transistors.

    Fermi huh? Supposed code name for GT300

    Naah.. Nvidia's new DX10.1 chip GT300 is still over 6 months from releasing

    GT200 will get a 40nm DX 10.1 refresh

    Second one replacing Geforce 9600 cards? Not likely since it won't perform anywhere near 9600-level. Weakeast of the 9600-cards is this 9600 GSO 512 (if we exlude GDDR2-version from Asus). It has 48SP like GT220..and higher clocks (4% on core, 18% on shaders). So far so good, but real...

    Latest: G300 in Q3/09, <225W TDP

    Well newest Fuad farce: http://www.fudzilla.com/content/view/14165/1/ He's saying how Nvidia's new 40nm mobile GPUs would be DX10.1 + support GDDR5. ..but one day earlier it was reported that these mobile GPUs would be DX10 (as anyone should have already known) + GDDR3...

    Latest: G300 in Q3/09, <225W TDP

    Well samething was with G80 and G200. Ps. There have been news of G300 taping out for over month ago.

    Latest: G300 in Q3/09, <225W TDP

    http://www.brightsideofnews.co...-targets-225w-tdp.aspx Well I would want to believe..but I know that UMC's 40nm doesn't seem to have those same problems as TSMC's and UMC is ready for mass production..so they could be ideal canditate to build G300 GPUs initially. Because of the price point...

    Larrabee will be massive?

    "This is of course, an assumption that Intel will be producing Larrabee on a 45nm core"

    Larrabee will be massive?

    Intel could squeeze 64 Larrabees on 300mm wafer (45nm). For comparison Nvidia squeezed 94 GT200 on 300mm wafer (65nm) and GT200 65nm was 575mm^2 At least on wafers Larrabee looked HUGE

    GT216 and GT218 - specs?

    http://www.hardware-infos.com/news.php?news=2996 GT218 Process: 40nm Shaders: 24 ROPs: 4 Memory: 64-bit DDR2 Replaces G98 - has 50% more shaders GT216: Process: 40nm Shaders: 48 ROPs: 8 Memory: 128-bit GDDR3 Replaces G96 - has 50% more shaders ------------------------

    Corsair HX620 handle GTX 280 SLI and Core i7 920?

    Single GTX 280 has peak 3d consumption at 180W, Single GTX 285 would be at around 150W
  13. R

    Larrabee matches a GTX285?

    If Larrabee's performance is only at GTX 285 level..then it's huge dissapointment. Basically Nvidia wouldn't even need to release new cards to counter it! Larrabee is huge and very expensive chip to make. One 300mm wafer could hold only about 64 Larrabees when for comparison one 300mm wafer...

    Nvidia finally embraces DirectX 10.1

    Because Nvidia was smart enough to cut from research budget when G80 came out and Nvidia was doing superbly financially.

    Nvidia finally embraces DirectX 10.1

    Current gen of Nvidia cards can't do DX10.1..would require new architecture..so: 1) Nvidia's next generation architecture supports DX10.1, but not DX11 2) This is Fud.
