i searched and did not find anything on this so sorry if it is a repost



i am somewhat disappointed since it said it the only improvements would be only have a higher fill rate, 128 MB of memory

First, we would like to point out that T&L unit of GeForce4 will acquire the second vertex shader pipeline.

The major advantages of the GeForce4 family over the previous generation chips will be comparatively higher working frequency of the core and greater memory subsystem bandwidth. It will be achieved due to the use of faster graphics memory chips and the core redesign, which nevertheless, will be produced with 0.15micron manufacturing technology.

i guess geforce 5 is where its at but i hope its soon i would loooooooovvvvvvvee to see what nvidia does with their acquisition of 3dfx technology but i dont see any sign of it in the GF4

i really think GF3 super ultra would be a more suitable name 🙁
 
there must be more to it, what a waste of time to develop that. The least they couldn't have done was introduce something like truform, or make a new feature.
 
The increase in memory is likely a result of them adding in RGAA, this has been rumored for a bit and Ge4 should be the architechture that they could introduce the 3dfx tech into. Also the last mobile part they announced had 64megs of integrated memory on die, I wouldn't be supprised if all the future parts do as well.
 
128Mb will be necessary for higher AA modes.

4xAGP limits geometry throughput, and 8xAGP will help alleviate this (to the certain extent). As for N-Patches, who said they won't be there? 🙂

it's NOT on die memory(ala eDram) it's on package. basically take a graphics chip then take the external AGP slot, DDR memory and vga out and consolidate all the SMD junk and mount it all in one "chip" looking thing with a proprietary pin out cucuit board. then design a laptop mobo with this connector, and viola laptop fraggin delite🙂
 
Now, everyone knows R300 will destroy GF4. 😀

I'm waiting to see the titles which actually make use of all these "features" both sides are lauding.
