R420 and NV40 - Where are the rumors?

[Zoinks]

I thought the NV40 and R420 were due in Q1 '04. Shouldn't we be seeing some more rumors - even wildly inaccurate ones - by now?

 

[Mingon]

The only 2 confirmed rumours are that ATI drivers will Blow and nvidia will cheat in 3dmark. The rest like 6x2 and 12x1 pipelines is just rumours.

here ya go.

nv40
16x1 (pp x tu)
600MHz gpu
1600MHz 256-bit gddr2

Are those wildly inaccurate enough?

I'd say for the NV40:

32x4 (650million transistors producing 450Watts)
2.5 Ghz core clock (many wasted cycles)
1000mhz memory clock on a 1024bit bus (128GB/s)


R4XX

16x8 (425million transistors producing 190Watts)
700mhz core clock
4 256bit memory channels each feeding 1/4 of the GPU (1000mhz)
