[news] NV30 Speculation

Auf 3DChipset gibt's eine kleine Info, angeblich direkt von nVidia; um genauer zu sein, von einem Seminar für Top End Developers:

I caught a couple of NV30 specs for you. First the RAM will be running at 900Mhz. Secondly, they are claiming at this point 200 million polys per second.

Zitat

Will Nvidia be using the DDR II memory that is on Samsungs product description pages? Will have to wait for that info, but it's apparent that Nvidia is banking on massed produced 900Mhz modules from Samsung. The 200 million polys per second is almost doubled that of the GeForce 4. I believe the GeForce 4 is what? 124? or something around that.

Dazu gibt's noch eine kleine Info über den R300 von einem OpenGL Developer:

Zitat

I've also recently been chatting to one of the persons at ATi. He got his first R300 about 3 and a half weeks ago. He won't give me any performance numbers (yet). He's claiming that based on the performance he's been getting, it's going to destroy everything else that's coming out.

Hier gibt's die News.

Zitat von XXL

900 mhz real oder nur 450 ddr?

was meinst du mit "nur 450 ddr" ?

angeblich 450 echte MHz mit nur 128bit interface

wenn ja -> schlecht

das sind zur zeit eh nur spekulationen....
also was macht es für einen sinn darüber zu diskutieren ?

check this out

there's even more

3DCenter hat einen Artikel rausgebracht, der die Gerüchte rund um den NV30 mal durchleuchtet und einiges klarstellt.

• NV30 will be a important discontinuity in 3D graphics. Made at TSMC at 0.13u with significantly higher engineering costs and a record number of new chip tapeouts.
• On the topic of when NV30 will be launched, NVIDIA said Fall, as it would only be possible on .13u process. They claim it to have the biggest performance jump ever, with a record number of tapeouts (again).
• Reiterate that NV30 would support AGP 8X.
• On the topic of operating systems, NVIDIA said that Longhorn will be terrific, look/feel different, and that OSX will be fully 3D.
• On the topic of 3DLabs/Matrox, NVIDIA reiterated that future generation products will always be better than previous generations, and added that they're very excited about NV30.
• On the topic of manufacturing foundry's, NVIDIA isn't planning to have a backup foundry, and they're working hard with TSMC to get the .13u process up to scratch.

Die GeForce5 wird 2 Prozessoren haben. Ein Prozessor mit einer eigene T&L Einheit!
Ich kann mir nicht vorstellen wie teuer die Karten werden.
256 MB DDR-Ram mit 256 Bit Busbreite!!!
