NVIDIA Vista drivers update: Future plans unveiled
Citace:
NVIDIA told me that they planning to start releasing a new version of their Forceware driver for Vista at least once every month. I say at least because Diercks said that if they find several game fixes or bugs that are substantial they may have intermittent releases as well to help appease the gaming masses. This move is very similar to the driver development cycle that ATI’s Catalyst drivers have been in for a couple of years now, with updates about once a month. Having this type of regular schedule should help NVIDIA users feel more at ease about their purchases knowing that a fixed time length is ahead of them to await another software release that could address whatever issue that ails them.

Digitimes update:
Citace:
Nvidia is preparing to launch a series of GeForce 8600 cards in the middled of the second quarter 2007 to help satisfy the increasing demand for DirectX 10 supporting graphics cards caused by Windows Vista, according to market sources. The GeForce 8600 series will be priced to target mainstream markets, the sources add.
According to the release plan several versions are currently being prepared, the sources claim. The GeForce 8600 GT with 512MB memory will be priced between US$219 and US$229, while a 256MB version will be available at US$199.

Nvidia plans DirectX 10 cards for AGP slot
Citace:
G84 goes Geforce 8600xx AGP
NVIDIA'S GEFORCE 7600 GS, its AGP card, will get a new follower, cleverly codenamed G84 AGP.
.....
The G84 is set to replace Geforce 7600 GS cards and these cards sell for around €100, which is not bad deal for an AGP card.
The AGP version is possible due to the fact that G84 chips are pin-to-pin compatible with Geforce 6600 and 7600, so there were no modifications required in order that AGP market gets its DirectX 10 card.

Nvidia prepares to shrink G80 to make a G90
Citace:
.....
There are two challenges going down to 80 or 65 nanometres from the current 90. An optical shrink from 90 to 80 nanometre doesn't allow much space for clock speed increases. You cannot go much higher than 700+ MHz depending on the chip marchitecture.
.....
Going down to 65 nanometre is not an optical shrink and presents a major engineering challenge. That’s why it took AMD ages to go from 90 nanometre CPUs to 65. And graphics chips are even more challenging to shrink. Nvidia will go 65 nanometre with G78 and if this goes well it will probably try to move all its chip to 65nm in order to make more money per wafer.
If Nvidia makes G80 smaller there may also be just enough space for 512Mbit controller. If all goes as planned, the chip is scheduled for second part of 2007.

Celkovo nvidia ruluje, ATi nejak nestiha, myslim ze prichadzaju o dost $. To nie je len o DX10, ale aj o najvykonnejsej grafike, navyse taka GTS vobec nie je draha vzhladom na to, aky vykon ponuka. A niekde som videl spravu ze nvidia ich uz predala 400 000. A ti ludia, co si teraz kupili nvidiu, si tak skoro uz novu grafiku nekupia...
Re: G80 - G90 a dalsi novinky
Tiez mam pocit, ze ATI to pohnojilo, ved opat odlozili prichod r600 na maj, co je takmer 10 mesiacov po prichode 8800gtx & gts. A zatial co nVidia bude mat v maji vyladenu technologiu vyroby plus vyladene drivere, ATI pridu s prvymi reviziami a s tym suvisiacimi pripadnymi problemami. Ja osobne uz kaslem na cakanie, beriem nVidiu. AMD ma dost sklamalo vratane ATI oddelenia. :-(

No ATi, v tom co psal W1zzard, pise, ze chteji vydat plne odladenou a konkurenceschopnou DX10 grafiku. Tak verim, ze je to i v podobe driveru. Musim totiz priznat, ze XP drivery k 8800 byly hodne dlouho nedodelane a Vista drivery jsou jeste ted hodne problemove.

Re: G80 - G90 a dalsi novinky
Podle mých informací je už 80nm verze G80 už hotová, ale nemám specifikace (tedy jesli jde pouze o shrink G80 pro levnější výrobu, nebo jestli má vyšší frekvence, nebo i nějaké změny v jádře). Předpokládám, že půjde o lehce přetaktovanou G80.

Pokud by ten shrink znamenal i snizeni teploty GPU, vyplatilo by se pockat. Tak ted uz nezbyva nez jen doufat, ze ATI vyda R600ku co nejdriv a veci se pohnou spravnym smerem... ;-)

GeForce 8800 Ultra to Come Out on April 17
Citace:
GeForce 8800 Ultra will really be Nvidia’s response to ATI R600, however the specifications of the new cards haven’t been revealed yet. Most sources, however, believe that GeForce 8800 Ultra will run at higher clock speed than GeForce 8800 GTX and may feature GDDR-4 instead of GDDR-3 memory onboard with the corresponding frequency increase. However, even today Foxconn Company is already offering an overclocked GeForce 8800 GTX with GDDR-3 memory working at 2100MHz frequency. We dare suppose that they will select fast memory like GDDR-3 for the new GeForce 8800 Ultra as well.

GeForce 8800 Ultra To Counter R600 In May
Citace:
During the NVIDIA's Ngagement meeting today, they have briefed their partners on the upcoming GeForce 8800 Ultra cards to coincide with ATi R600 in May. NVIDIA is pretty confident that GeForce 8800 Ultra can beat Radeon X2900 XTX. We have revealed before that R600 is just performing pretty close to 8800 GTX on a set of early drivers so we will see how much performance can ATi engineers tweak out of the R600 launch drivers

NVIDIA is very likely to be the first customer to introduce production on TSMC 55nm half node geometry. Given its long established ties with TSMC, NVIDIA started pilot runs on 55nm in early 2007 and samples should be available for customers in the second half of 2007. NVIDIA should introduce 55nm in volume production in the first quarter of 2008. AMD has also started pilot runs on 55nm. Chips fabricated on 55nm are to hit the market in early 2008.

8800Ultra specifications out:
Nvidias ultimate flagship will be more than you ever expected.
This $999 card comes with 3 graphic chips. There will be two overclocked 80nm G80 chips with 650mhz(1.7GHz shaderclock), each of them can use 1.5GB GDDR4 with the awesome clock of 3.2GHz. The third chip will be a small G84 chip with 256MB GDDR3 memory, which is used for game physics in Nvidias new SLI 2.0.
The card uses an exclusive an special cooling solution and works very quiet although the power consumption establishs a new record.
Release will be in late May to crush Atis new R600 chip.
More information, pictures and maybe benchmarks soon!

Market of Graphics Adapters Collapses in Q1 2007
Citace:
According to Jon Peddie Research, 78.8 million graphics adapters were shipped in Q1 2007, which is a 5.5% drop sequentially, but a 5.3% gain annually.
http://www.xbitlabs.com/images/news/...kt_q1_2007.png
Intel remained the largest supplier of graphics adapters, however, even though its overall market share improved, its overall sales declined by about 2% - 3%. Nvidia’s shipments fell 5.7%, but its market share remained flat. Advanced Micro Devices not only faced 1.1% market share decline, but also saw its sales dropping by 10.2%.
Due to decreased sales of integrated graphics adapters for desktops, the rise of add-in-boards shipments and some other factors,
Nvidia replaced Intel for first place in desktop market share, JPR claims.
