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.

NVIDIA'S Geforce 8600 cards, based on the G84 die, should score about 4500 points in famous 3Dmark06. This mainstream card will go into production in March or April time and it will still use the 128-bit memory interface.
....
Our little source also told us that this Nvidia card has 160 square mm die and compared to ATI's 65 nanometre competitor it will end up bigger.

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. Additionally, targeting an even lower price point will be the GeForce 8600GS at between US$159 and US$165, the sources have revealed.

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...

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.

NVIDIA is set to launch mainstream 8600GTS (G84-400) and 8600GT (G84-300) as well as 8500GT (G86-300) on 17th of April. GeForce 8600GTS and 8600GT will have 256MB GDDR3 memories onboard and sports 128-bit memory interface but no HDMI yet. GeForce 8600GTS is meant to replace 7950GT and 7900GS while 8600GT to replace 7600GT and 8500GT to replace 7600GS.

8600GTS will be clocked at 700MHz core / 2GHz memory and comes with dual D-DVI, HDTV, HDCP but requires external power. 8600GTS will be priced between US$199-$249. Another mainstream model, the 8600GT will be clocked at 600MHz core / 1.4GHz memory and has 2 variants; one with HDCP (G84-300) and the other without (G84-305). This model doesn't requires an external power. 8600GT will be priced between US$149-$169.

The last model meant for budget segment is actually a G84 core but downgraded to meet the value segment pricing structure. The 8500GT will be clocked at 450MHz core / 800MHz 256MB DDR2 memory and comes in 2 variants; one with HDCP (G86-300) and the other without HDCP (G86-305). 8500GT will be priced between US$79 to US$99. Towards end of April, we can expect NVIDIA to release GeForce 8300GS for the budget market to replace 7300 series.

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.

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.

NVIDIA confirms Next-Gen close to 1TFlop in 4Q07

Citace:

---

In recent analyst conferences that were publicly webcast on NVIDIA's website, Michael Hara (VP of Investor Relations) has claimed that their next-generation chip, also known as G92 in the rumour mill, will deliver close to one teraflop of performance. In a separate answer to an analyst's question, he also noted that they have no intention from diverging from the cycle they have adopted with the G80, which is to have the high-end part ready at the end of the year and release the lower-end derivatives in the spring.

Assuming that NVIDIA manages to hit these aggressive release schedules, it implies that the chip will compete with any potential R6xx refresh at the beginning of its lifetime, but also eventually with R700 as it seems unlikely NVIDIA will refresh again before the second half of 2008, unless they go for an optical shrink from 65nm to 55nm. It also remains to be seen how aggressive ATI will be on the process front this time around.

Hmm pokud se nV zadari a vyda ji v planu ,tak asi ATI v high endu dobojovala ,protoze R650 stacit nejspis nebude. To neni ale vubec dobre.

Část z toho pravdivá je, ale celkově ty čísla nedávají zas až takový smysl. Přechodem z 90nm na 65nm se při zachování plochy může navýšit počet tranzistorů o 50%. Protože má být ale G92 jen 3/4 plochy G80, odpovídalo by to nárůstu o 25%. Odkud by pocházel ten o 2,5-3x vyšší výkon? Takový rozdíl nepřinesla ani G80 jako zcela nová architektura - popravdě, když u nějakých "specifikací" bývalo psáno výkon 2-3x vyšší, byl to zatím vždycky fake. Takže pokud by se nVidii povedlo vydat čip, který by v reálných aplikacích byl v průměru "jen" 2,5x výkonnější, tak smeknu a koupím si ho.

Spíš si ale myslím, že vzhledem ke zmenšení plochy jádra (=primární pro nVidii je spotřeba a odpadní teplo, nikoli výkon, jinak by nešetřili plochou) půjde o řešení a la 7950GX2, tedy dva čipy na jedné kartě. Pak by bylo možné 2,5-3x vyššího výkonu v některých situacích dosáhnout.

S 25% tranzistory navíc se moc kouzlit nedá. Vytahnout počet TMUs na 48(x2) a shader core jen nataktovat výše (třeba 2500MHz)? Nebo nechat počet TMUs a rozšířit shader core na 160 či 192 ALUs?

Podle mě by bylo nejmoudřejší vykašlat se na TMUs s duálním texture-filtrem - je sice hezký, že trilineární filtrace je díky tomu bez ztráty výkonu, ale při spoustě operací (a zvlášť pak v některých pro DX10) bude půlka filtering units ležet nevyužitá. Takže pokud by místo toho implementovali 48 klasických texturovacích jednotek, stálo by to možná stejné množství tranzistorů (o 16 filtering units méně a o 16 adressing units více) a výkon by to dalo - obzvlášť v DX10, vyšší (řekl bych, že i v DX9). Propad výkonu při AF by byl sice větší, ale zároveň by byl větší i výkon bez AF (je lepší mít 85FPS bez AF a 75FPS s AF, než mít AF bez ztráty výkonu a být tak či tak na 70FPS). Tím by se zvýšila efektivita texturing enginu bez nároku na tranzistory, další texture fillrate by se dohnal frekvencí a těch 25% tranzistorů navíc by mohlo padnout čistě na shader core (třeba 192SPs)...

Nvidia's D8M taped out

Citace:

---

Nvidia has already taped out its next generation mainstream chip. It calls it D8M where D stands for Desktop and M stands for Mainstream and number 8 indicates that we are talking about an 8th generation product.

We can confirm that we are talking about 65 nanometre chip and that it supports PCIe 2.0 interface. Intel is already coming with X38 chipset in Q3 that will support PCIe 2.0 and AMD has already showcased its Rx7x0 generation of chipsets that can support PCIe 2.0.

We are sure Nvidia has a chipset with PCIe 2.0. The chip also supports HD DVD and Blue-Ray hardware acceleration as it features 3rd generation Video processor.

Nvidia's new card will feature internal S/PDIF on board the graphics card on a reference design and Zotac has that even with G86. We wrote about it here and even tested the card here.

G92 is 65nm and 256-bit memory bus?

Citace:

---

We heard about an upcoming GPU from NVIDIA on 256-bit memory interface earlier this month and we thought it is the rumored 256-bit version of G84. Now we learned that it is actually the next generation G92, a 65nm performance part supporting PCI Express 2.0 and 256-bit memory interface. G92 performance lies between GeForce 8800 GTS and 8600 GTS so it is not the highest end GPU from the G9x series yet.

Nvidia is about to launch a new high end card and as far as we know Nvidia will launch G92, a 65 nanometre version of G80 with support for PCIe 2.0 interface and some other face lift changes.

The editor’s days are scheduled for October time while the real hardware launch is scheduled for sometimes in November.

We know that G92 will end up significantly cooler and faster from very successful G80 but we don’t have much more details. AMD won’t have any other high end card to fight this product until Q1 2008.

NVIDIA took graphics share from AMD last quarter

Citace:

---

Market research firm Jon Peddie Research has published PC graphics market numbers for the second quarter of this year, and the firm says AMD's slice of the overall market has dropped to 19.5%—down from 21.9% in the first quarter. By contrast, Nvidia's overall PC graphics market share went up just over four points from 28.5% to 32.6%, while Intel's lost about a point, slipping from 38.7% to 37.6%. According to JPR, AMD's and Intel's results were more or less typical for that time of the year, but Nvidia's gains were significant.

7900GTX mela spotrebu kolem 70W btw., taky se tam pise, ze se dockame cele nove rady GF9, celkove maji predstavit 9 ruznych variant

Muzes nejak dokazat tech kolem 70? Ja ji znam o neco zravejsi.

NVIDIA G92 GPU has taped out?

Citace:

---

GRAPHICS FIRM Nvidia has taped out chips which it will release later this year in a fresh assault to dominate the market.

This includes a new king of the hill as well, the almighty G92 - also known as the GeForce "9800". Nvidia is paying quite a lot of attention to thermals and performance of the chip in complex shaders.

G92 aims for November launch

Citace:

---

A few sources have confirmed that Nvidia already sent out an invitation for November launch of G92, the next generation high end card.

The big thing about this chip is that it made it at 65 nanometre and that it has a support for PCIe 2.0 interface. Smaller gate size usually means higher clock and lower thermal dissipation and we are certain that this new chip will have significantly more transistors than G80.

As far as we know G92 is an evolution from G80 chip rather than a revolutionary new thing but will help Nvidia to steal the crown from its G80, Geforce 8 series.

At the same time Nvidia also plans to launch a new chipset and the hybrid SLI concept so this will be one nice and happy event.

GeForce 9800 will be as quiet as a mouse?

Citace:

---

Ever since the GeForceFX debacle, Nvidia has been producing ever quieter graphics cards, and this GeForce "9800" (truth to be told, 8900 moniker might be more appropriate) is another improvement over previous generation product.

As it turns out, in preliminary audio tests, the new card is more silent than not just 8800Ultra, but it is also less noisy than 8800GTX. It turns out that we are slowly approaching the era of silent monsters - computers that will emit less noise that your typical 15.4-inch laptop.

G92 gunning for 800 MHz+ clock

Citace:

---

We managed to learn that GPU clock has surpassed 800 MHz and that company plans to deliver the boards depending on yields they will get. So far, launch clock could be anywhere between 800 and 850 MHz, with 812/3, 824/5 and 830/5 being usual suspects. This time around, there is no hurry and Nvidia knows they can afford the launch of GTS/GTX and wait for R680 to show up and launch the Ultra version as a counter attack.

G92 might be called Geforce 8950

Citace:

---

The commercial name of the upcoming G92 might be the Geforce 8950 and not 9800 as we reported before.

Different people were getting different names so at the end Nvidia can change it until it makes the boxes for the cards. As there is still some time the name can change but 8950 sounds like a good option. Traditionally there are two versions a faster GTX and slower GT but we are not sure about these differentiations.

Nvidia to launch 8700

Citace:

Nvidia is about to have its first working samples of the card that might end up be called Geforce 8700. The new mainstream chip should be the one we mentioned before codenamed D8M but it can be highly likely that Nvidia has another codename for it, something like G8x.

The new chip aims to be launched together with G92 in the Novemberish time and this will secure Nvidia’s performance leadership in this market segment.

If the yields are good Nvidia will have a killer chip as the thermal dissipation of this improved version of G84 core is going to be much better and it will let Nvidia to set the higher clocks.

Latest rumours from HKEPC about G92 and friends :

- 65nm TSMC.
- To be launched on November 12th
- Will replace the 8800 GTS directly, in anticipation of a possible December-ish RV670 launch.
- There is a G98 ready to compete against a RV620, launch dates still unknown on either of them. Could be a G84 replacement, for a CES 2008 January introduction (hinting at mobile part first, desktop version in late Winter/early Spring).
- They say it has a "TCCD" memory controller
- PCI-Express 2.0, DX10.1 (as expected), DisplayPort and HDMI support.
- Purevideo Generation 3.
- G92 will remain strictly a "Geforce 8" family member, despite what the codename might have implied.

Salty specs of G92 and G98 hit the web

Citace:

---

G92 will have a 256-bit memory interface, will work at 740 MHz (core) and will have 64 Stream Processors. The G92 would have 512MB of GDDR3 memory clocked at 1800MHz and a TDP between the 7900GS and the 7900GTX (quite a large gap).

The card's price would be from $249 to $299 and it would score around 9700 points in 3DMark06 on a system powered by an Intel QX6700 (4 cores at 2.66 GHz).

As for the G98, it would have only 32 Stream processors (like the G84), a 256-bit memory interface, a core clock of 800 MHz, a TDP a little higher than the 8600GTS and a price tag hovering between $169 and $199, making it whether a replacement for the 8600GTS or the card to bring the price of the 8600GTS down close to the price of the Radeon HD 2600XT. This one would score about 7400 in 3DMark06 on the same, CPU-only configuration.

G92 is the high end solution

Citace:

---

There has been a lot of talk about G92 and many sites reported that this chip is a mainstream part. Our well informed sources have confirmed our previous allegation that G92 is a high end. It should be a faster clocked revised version of the G80 core at 65 nanometre and it should launch in mid November. The G98 is also the real codename and that is the 65 nanometre version of the G86 the 80 nanometre entry level chip. 65 nanometre will help Nvidia to make its production cheaper and the chips cooler. There will be one more G9x chips on 65 nanometre and we believe that G96 is the name. Time will tell.

G92 might be a high mainstream part

Our sources now believe that G92 is the 65 nanometre version that is set to replace 8600GTS and that it can easily be branded as the 8700 card. This card should be faster than GTS but slower than 8800 GTS cards and it should cost between 200 and $250 at launch.

If this is true this means that there won't be a Geforce 8800GTX / Ultra replacement in this year.

Opet zminka podpory DX10.1 pres driver update. Tak uz to vypada, ze to mysli vazne.

první slajd:

1. odkdy se v oficiálních materiálech píše něco o OC?
2. proč je schéma čipu stejné jako u G80 a s ještě zdeformovaným poměrem stran?
3. proč schéma čipu přesahuje rámeček dole a ty "bloky" vpravo do něj přesahují rámeček nahoře?
4. odkdy se leaklé slajdy objevují prvně na východních webech?

druhý slajd: kdyby byla podpora DX10.1 závislá na výpočetních jednotkách, tak proč ne, ale největší změny DX10 vs. DX10.1 se právě vůbec netýkají shaderů - je vyžadována podpora pro per process virtual memmory + full fledged page faulting with immediate context switching, což jsou věci WDDM, ale ty samozřejmě vyžadují i podporu ze strany hardwaru. A co je nejrozporuplnější, DX10.1 dle vyjádření Microsoftu vyžaduje "...ability to select the MSAA sample pattern for a resource from a palette of patterns, and retrieve the corresponding sample positions". Tzn. že čip musí být schopen podporovat taková rozložení MSAA vzorků, která po něm budou vyžadována. V tomhle ohledu nVidia od vydání neposkytla jednoznačnou informaci - nejdříve uvedli, že rozložení vzorků programovatelné je (v rámci 4-bit tabulky), následně, že programovatelné není a současná rozložení jsou neměnná a fixní... takže bude lepší počkat na oficiální info - tyto slajdy alespoň pro mě znamenají více otázek než odpovědí.

Nvidia Display port card pictured

Nvidia's first Display Port card has been pixelized. The one we've seen has a single VGA and dual Display Ports on a bracket and the card looked like it is in really good shape.

The card was rendering 3Dmark06 just fine and we didn't notice a single glitch. The second fun part about the card is that it doesn't have an external power connector which means that this 65 nanometre chip won't need and external plug.

We wrote about such a card back in March when our Cuda sources confirmed that Nvidia has such a design in plans.

Desktop 8 series Enthusiast is scheduled for first months of 2008 and will need a lot of power. It is a 65 part, or lets say it will have two chips each 65 nanometre with its own memory. This will bring back the Quad SLI concept in the game.

It seems to me it'll be 800MHz G92 versus 850MHz RV670.

G92:
core 800
16 TMUs = 12.8 G bilinear/s, 12.8 G trilinear/s
16 ROPs = 12.8 G pixels/s, 102.4 G Z/s

RV670:
core 850
16 TMUs = 13.6 G bilinear/s, 6.8 G trilinear/s
16 ROPs = 13.6 G pixels/s, 27.2 G Z/s

G80-GTS:
core 500
24 TMUs = 12 G bilinear/s, 12 G trilinear/s
20 ROPs = 10 G pixels/s, 80 G Z/s

NVIDIA 8800GT based on G92 core Early Specs

Citace:

For those who are interested in G92 core, the first card will be the NV 8800GT card. This card will come with a core clk of 600MHz and memory will be at 1800MHz. The memory width is at 256 bits. There will be two models, one with 256M and another at 512M. It will replace the 8800GTS-320.

This model is to fit the gap in between the 8600GTS and 8800GTS. Thus the performance levels should be around there. It is said that it targets the RV670 and the performance of it should be slightly better than the RV670..

It is slated to launch on 12 November 2007.

More three-way SLI info

Citace:

We've got our hands on a page of a presentation about three-way SLI and it looks like it won't have as much to bring to the table as normal SLI does in terms of performance increase.

As we don't know which benchmark or how it's represented in the graph below, it's hard to draw any real conclusions apart from the fact that it'll be faster, which is a good thing.

It doesn't seem to add a full cards performance, but if you compare the size of the graphs you'll notice that the third card adds a bigger bit to the graph than a second card seem to do.

What a mess. IN the same document Nvidia uses D8P (Performance) codename as well as G92 for the Geforce 8800GT. It turns out that D8M is G98 a entry level chip.

The new card is indeed a single slot and will need a single 2x3 connector. It has two Dual DVI-I ports as well as HDMI and HDTV-out support. One of the other important things is that this new chip is 65nm and that the board will eat up to 110W which is more than twice better than what R600 needs.

It is a 9 inch single slot board and it looks like it will be introduced on the October 29th but this date can change easily

GeForce 8800 GT Overclocking Is Good

Citace:

---

We heard the overclocking headroom for GeForce 8800 GT is pretty impressive mainly due to the finer 65nm process technology. However, Nvidia has purposely limits the core clock at 600MHz so its performance won't get too close to the GeForce 8800 GTS thereby hurt its sales. However, users can still choose to overclock the core and we should be seeing more than 700MHz easily.

This lead to a chip shortage and this upset a lot of Nvidia partners. Upset is a light understatement as the Nvidia only partners are furious as Jeff the Fish, the boss of the sales team and Fiona, the boss of the European sales department couldn't fill many of their orders.

This is actually a good thing for Nvidia's stock, as Nvidia claims that it has never sold more chips, but it's still not good in the long term. as the company has managed to upset most of its supporters.

Nvidia admits defeat in G92 vs. RV670 battle
Údajné výsledky v 3Dmark06:
G92 10800
RV670 11400
8800Ultra 12500

Skóre G92 (a teda aj RV670) sa mi nezdá, lebo CJ na Beyond3D spomínal skóre G92 okolo 9000.

BTW: Tento príspevok som tu už raz mal, ale niekto mi ho asi zmazal. Taktiež som to dal do vlákna o RV670 (pre istotu, niektorí užívatelia nemusia čítať vlákna o nVidii a naopak).

Prave proto, ze uz jsi ho dal do threadu o RV670 jsem ho smazal. Ja nemam cross-posting rad...

EDIT: A koukam, ze tam mas stejnou chybu jako v tom druhem threadu u skore Ultry...

CHW has a slide on the the GeForce 8800 GT which confirmed the specs we told you earlier. Also we heard that the single slot cooler on the 8800 GT card has 3 heat-pipes and Nvidia told its partners that it won't be hot.

No jestli RV670 opravdu da pres 11k, opravi par bugu co byly v R600 a nasadi cenu nekde kolem 8k za 512MB verzi, potom to bude asi trhak jako kdysi byvala 6800GT/6600GT nebo dnes X1950Pro.

256MB verze 8800GT ma stat 229USD podle poslednich dohadu, coz rozhodne neni spatne ;)

No jinak:

RV670 is expected with a retail price between 229 and 279 dollars, but we would not be surprised if a low-clocked part would retail for 199 Dollars/Euro.

U RV670 se bude cena podle typu pohybovat od 279/229 az k 199USD. Coz vzhledem k vykonu(nekde pry i lepsim nez R600) bude celkem neuveritelne.

Moje chyba, tech novinek je posledni dobou tolik, ze uz nejak nestiham. Cena 256MB 8800GT ma byt 199USD :) 229USD ma stat 512MB verze.

A zbavovat se skladových GTS úpravou 96SPs->112SPs půjde asi dost těžko, protože nic takového není realizovatelné. Pokud se čistí skaldy, tak vždy vydáním pomalejšího produktu. Nikoli rychlejšího.

CJ did some nice analysis on the Nvidia's strategy here on why is there a new 8800 GTS SKU. He revealed that there is a shortage of GTX cores but plenty of GTS cores going around that didn't quite make it as a GTX. So if you launch a new product that is faster than a 8800GTS, no one will buy the more expensive GTS unless you up its stream processor count for higher performance.

Osobne si ale myslim, ze RV670 bude lepsi kauf. ATi si muze dovolit nizsi cenu (55nm a 256bit, PCB podobne X1900) a vykon bude prinejmensim srovnatelny.
