* 0.11 micron process TSMC
* 430Mhz core / 1.4GHz 256MB GDDR3 memory
* 256-bit memory interface
* 38.4GB/s memory bandwidth
* 10.32Bps Fill Rate
* 860M vertices/second
* 24 pixels per clock
* 400MHz RAMDACs
* NVIDIA CineFX 4.0 engine
* Intellisample 4.0 technology
* 64-bit FP texture filtering & blending
* NVIDIA SLI Ready (7800 GTX only)
* DX 9.0 / SM 3.0 & OpenGL 2.0 supported
* G70 comes with 3 models; GTX, GT and Standard
* Single card requires min. 400W PSU with 12V rating of 26A
* SLI configuration requires min. 500W PSU with 12V rating of 34A
* Launch : 22nd of June

Is it just me or is this card not that impressive? shouldn't it have 32 pipes, and something like 700Mhz core? I suppose the SLI would be exceptional, but as a single card solution it's not what I expected.

It's all rumor until NVDA makes an announcement.

34A on 12v for SLI?! :shocked:

Too bad there no games to play this with, or the current Geforce 6800 Ultra. Radeon 9700 runs WoW and Frozenthrone fine for me.🙂

Only the highest end card is SLI Ready? that seems like a horrible marketing move, no to mention the fact that AMR is supposed to allow any combination of cards, if AMR works as intended it looks alot more promising

You know we have a video card forum too :roll:

i've been thinking on that too. is it possible the gt and the gtx are identical except for the
sli pins and there will be only 2 actual spec sets? otherwise it does seem like a poor decision.
