es gibt neuigkeiten vom nv35 auf
Beyond3D:
[QUOTE]I've recieved, of course not in an official manner and I'm personally not under any NDA, the full NV35 feature list.
It's mostly PR talk, since it's pretty much the PR you'll get at launch, but it's still quite interesting.
I've used bold for everything I find noteworthy.

Comprehensive Microsoft DirectX® 9.0 (and lower) and OpenGL 1.4 (and earlier) support
DirectX and S3TC texture compression
EDIT: I corrected one or two things which are probably typos in the info I recieved - beside that, it's as-is.
Please also note nVidia is not marketing any DDR-II in this feature list. This seems to imply the NV35 *does* use DDR-I.
The 12 PS ops/clock thing is rather vague, because you could actually describe the NV30 that way too. It's still interesting to see nVidia won't market it as a "8 pipelines" architecture, though.
Sounds like the "accelerated shadow volumes" stuff is what Carmack was rumored to be asking about.
Also, I'd like to thank my source for giving me all of this very tasty info! And no nVidia, I won' tell you who it is. Don't be too angry though - not like I see a good reason to be angry since it doesn't really harm anyone's business
