The nVIDIA chief finance officer (CFO) Marv Burkett science and technology conference talked about related G70 as well as the RSX question on the other day in J.P. in the Morgan, most astonishing news was Burkett points out "RSX still middle the development". The RSX graph processing chip will apply Sony Playstation in 3, will use the 90nm manufacture craft. Because of the present not actually silicon chip, causes this chip at present to be unable normally according to sequence to provide. If we pay attention to Sony the progress chart, we should discover RSX originally should on already complete the development immediately, and the principle should before September completed the trial production (taped out) to work, then at Christmas vacation before completed the first chip end product, was Playstation 3 makes the enough chip in the next year spring issue, the safeguard supply. Considered has affected Playstation 3 going on the market, to nVIDIA said the consequence had seriously, I thought nVIDIA should understand very much. Once nVIDIA has can carry on the production to have no time (bug-free) the silicon, it will be able to defer to the progress immediately which will prearrange to carry on the production gradually, Sony completes the production control, and will be nVIDIA this technology buries the list. Once Sony took over control these products, nVIDIA has not needed for to involve again had worried to any related product GPU, nVIDIA also on could not obtain any money afterwards from Sony that. Then the present had a question, Sony has demonstrated that many technical demo on pre-E3, then since RSX still at developed the time which demonstrated uses is what GPU? Table model machine chip G70? ? ? Burkett elaborated nVIDIA and having Sony in the lecture which as soon as appoints soon to promote has demonstrated the Playstation 3 GPU ability with the RSX similar performance product. He pointed out in unfolds demo which at the meeting demonstrated completely to use the high end table model machine product which is nVIDIA soon appears on the market. But, at present is not clear whether is "the focal point" the G70 table model machine chip, or also possibly is completes by GeForce 6,800 Ultra SLI. But, also some very curious question appeared, if demonstrated on pre-E3 all is the G70 behavior, what type then RSX will be able to have the ability? Then RSX and G70 who is fiercer than who? Looked like if the RSX appearance, really had well and it "the intimate contact".

good point, if the RSX is really in development ,wich doesnt surprise seeing as sony and nvidia made a deal about their ps3 partnership just weeks ago, then were the ps3 demos we saw actually run on an rsx prototype or was it a G70 prototype? and since ibm has admitted that they have only reached 3ghz for their cell cpus in their labs, does this mean the ps3 footage was not rendered on ps3 hardware at all but rather a modified pc with a G70 card?
nvidia anounced the will have the RSX ready in september, so by then we should see some REAL PS3 footage :D
