R600 specs

[bunnyfubbles]

yeah I thought this was already posted.

The biggest give away that these are either fake and/or no point in drooling because we definately won't see this anytime soon, is the fact that its on a 65nm process. When 110nm is the new GPU standard for flagships, there's pretty much no way we'll be seeing 65nm any time soon.

I'm suprised they didn't throw in 512bit memoryarchitecture as well 😛

Zobar's Guide to Making Up Video Hardware Specs for the Internet:
1) Double number of Pixel Pipelines
2) List next progressive step in transistor process
3) Estimate core speed at 1.5x to 2x current numbers
4) List next progressive step in RAM technology
5) Double standard amount of RAM for GPU boards
6) List random amount of bandwidth, flops, etc.
7) Enjoy.

maybe in a year or two you could see something like that on the shelves in quantity

I have the R600, but I cannot comment more because I'm under NDA.

i have the R720, but i cannot comment more because i'm under an NDA.

128 Shader Operations per Cycle

Hehe afaik the current 7800GTX pushes more shader operations and will have a 1/3rd the shader resources. If this is true ATI might as well start over.

It makes no sense to me whatsover that the graphics card industry will not have gone the dual-cored route by 2006. I'd have to call shens to this rumour. If it's indeed correct, I get the impression that ATI/Nvidia need to give IBM a call, and the first ones to do so will win the DX10 graphics card wars.

Does he have a guide to the galaxy as well?

Not to me. The 65nm process was on papaer for a long time. This doesn't suprise me at all, as I half expected it.

Although an 800MHz Core does seem a little low. Especially for a 65nm process.

*shrug* I'm no expert.

Regardless, these specs are made up. http://forum.pcvsconsole.com/viewthread.php?tid=15794

wow... :roll:

Yep, the Noob name is fitting...

haha....even intel hasnt moved yet to 65nm noob so you can forget small companies like nvidia and ati moving to it within the next year.

I would say the 800Mhz core is far to high.

With every new Architecture for graphics cards, mhz actually lessens than the previous version, as they have made a better core that is more efficient so they dont need to clock it so high anymore and also benefits in the fact the power and heat is also lowered.

QFT. That's why I made the offhand comment about 32nm. They'd need archetecture at about that level to get reasonable yields in an 800Mhz bin on 64 pipes worth of transistors.

No, nonono nooooo......

I work for TAI (seriously) and these are the REAL specs:

2^8 pixel pipelines w/ 2 vertex shaders per pipe
1024MB GXTDR2 ram @ 2.4GHz
Core clock speed: 2MHz 🙂

Oh, almost forgot: holographic molecular etching process for the core and ram 😛

 

[HDTVMan]

Wow my nipples just got hard reading those specs. That card would be insane.

 

[HDTVMan]

You know now that I think about it this cant be right. ATI would never show its hand so early that would cause NVIDIA to begin to counter. And in 6 months time this information would get NVIDIA to beging a massive move to create this +1 for December time frame.

Sorry I cant believe these specs. And I Have never heard of DDR4 ram. That sounds made up even since DDR3 isnt really here in full steam. Unless they want to call the on die ram DDR4 as a marketing gimmick.
