finally it comes: the real G92-8800GTS leaked photo

http://www.expreview.com/img/news/07...2_gts_real.jpg

There’s lots of info about G92-8800GTS, and we would like review it again: it will out in 11 Dec, have 128 SP, using 8800GT’s PCB design, and have a upgraded dual slot cooler. The frequency will be 650/1625/1940MHz(core/shader/memory), higher than refrence 8800GT.

Though source mentions that G92-8800GTS will use two 6pin power connector, but the product looks only have one. the total power consumption will be as much as 140W. manufacturer suggest using a juicy ATX PSU.

There’s some pics leaked earlier, but the pic is too mall, and under that cooler actually is a naked 8800GT with changed different baffle plate. Also the power module part is different.

2 phase (8800GT) power or 3?

I'd be surprised if it needed dual power connectors but I suppose it could happen.

I think I know which card I'll hold off for now and just get it as soon as it's available and it can be bought for a maximum of ~60€ more than 8800GT so around 8800GTS 640MB price levels (the cheapest ones). Would have to wait almost that long for a 8800GT anyways so.

I hope it has 2x pci-e connectors so my Thermaltake ToughPower gets a benefit, this should provide at least sufficient amount power for our PCI-E 1.x setups whatever speeds we'd clock it to. :)

Hope the power modules scheme is different and provide more stable power so higher clocks than GT becomes available so it will be worth the extra cost.

I have a feeling once overclocked, These thing will destory the GTX and Ultra hands down.

December 11th!!!

too late for me I need a new card before then, unless Nvidia can guarantee availability on or near that date, hopefully the price won't be too high.

that is the old G80 8800GTS but with 112SPs, this thread refers to the new G92 8800GTS

so that GTS I linked to is the same tech node as the original 8800GTS?

sooo....

as of December 12th, theres gonna be:

8800 Ultra, 8800GTX, 8800GTS (old and new and new) and 8800GT?

11-23-2007, 04:56 AM

I don't get it?

Is this a replacement for the GTX model?

I mean, if not, how would the performance be better then the GTX?

Unless the only difference is that the GTX will have 768megs and this will have 512?

In that case, seems the GTX will still hold the title at higher resolutions.

I'm thinking NVidia is stuck and can't really move forward in performance yet, so instead, they're going to pump out a bunch of "tweaked" versions of the earlier models in hope of moving the market a little.

Finally, if the GT is selling for $300 most places, this new card will easily be $400 or more, you can get a used GTX for that price, and in turn, why wouldn't you?

interesting stuff shame i can trun it in SLI (on an intel chipset)

and guys its really not all that complicated Nvidia have revamped their line up (smaller processes improved features etc) but have decided to keep the original names as opposed to using 8900 naming convention probably marketings fault!

Perfectly clear where the performance boundries lie :down:

They're already messin' with you, as I'm sure you know, the GTS G92 will be 512mb(/1gb?), per the 256-bit controller vs. 320-bit (320/640mb) of G80 gts. ;)

I agree the naming is essentially borked, they should've just called the damn things 8900gts and 8900gtx, like AMD did the 3800 series. Even with the the lesser bus, they still match or exceed their previously-released brethern, or close enough to call it a refresh. Considering the 112 now lines up on both the GT (g92) and GTS (g80), it would've made a hell of a lot more sense.

As for power, I could see this clearly topping 150W, or darn close, therefore needing the extra connector...especially with 1gb on board or with any factory overclocks.

Still power (connectors) aside, which obviously isn't indicative of power consumption, this should be a beast of performer.

EDIT: Beat to the punch on the GTS correction. ;)

Thanks, kinda indirectly proves my point thought doesn't it? If i'm confused, what the hell is Joe Bloggs gonna think...

Nice one nVidia :/

Only positive I can see is if you get an uninformed online store that discounts the new GTS 512MB 112SP down at GT 512MB price or something...Gonna be hell for those websites as well.

What a day! On November 20, Marcus and I flew over to Singapore to attend an NVIDIA press briefing.

Quote:

To compound the start of a disastrous day, we discovered that the NVIDIA press briefing was not about a new GeForce 8800 card that many had been hoping for.

Quote:

NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS

* There will be a refresh of the NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS 640MB.
* However, it won't be based on the G92, but an improved version of the G80 GPU.
* The new NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS will have a soft launch on December 3, 2007 with market availability only two weeks later, from December 17 onwards.

I have been 1 year and half with my current setup, no changes at all, 7900GT and E6600. Next will be NH and maybe a D9P. This card looks a bit heavy, something is not right about it. The 8800GT looks much more promising for its price and perfomance than this one. Well I will wait and see the perfomance on higher resolutions because that is what matters.

I don't know! I just remember reading before that the reason why the 640MB GTS was outperforming the GT in a couple of RTS games was because the 512MB was bottlenecking the rest of the stuff. Apparently.

Alright, seems neat.

I know a 8850gx2 is coming.

We gonna see a NEW gtx? Though from the looks of it the gts leaves no room for improvement since all the streamers are enabled. They'd have to design a new card probably.

Any clues on what we can look at in Jan/Feb?

Haven't seen that, myself. In the HWC review, the new GTS (G80) card often edged out the GT at higher resolutions, mostly on account of it's larger memory bus and 112sp. And of course, the 320MB GTS has often been beaten by the 640 MB version at higher resolutions.

Nah, those where less shader heavy and more "brute" force games I bet.

Remember the "old" GTS got more ROPs and wider memory bus.

Ithink the old GTS has 96 and the GT has 112 so the GT has more brute force on ROP section;) the old GTS has more 128MB VRAM and more 56bit's wider(I think:shrug: )

Those numbers are shaders.

GTS got 20 ROPs, GT got 16. GTS got 320Bit bus, GT got 256bit.

The 128MB extra memory means nothing. Its simply just a requirement to get the 320bit bus.

Card looks sweet but memory will be a factor for guys with hires displays at 1920x1080+ or playing with loads of AA.

See this article for a good read about the G80 architecture and how the shaders, rops and memory appear to affect overall performance:

http://www.digit-life.com/articles2/...ts2-page1.html

You can extrapolate the info across the G9x range.

Is it verified that there will be a 1gb version? If so, will the memory bus be 256 or 512?

256, I *REALLY* don't see NVidia designing a new board for these chips, and it'd require a new PCB to maintain a 512bit bus. Also, going by NVidia's current memory control method, the bus and rops are tied together, and at their current system it'd have to have 32 rops to do a 512bit bus.

So how much if at all will these chips outperform at the higher resolution if the memory bus is less than the current gts and gtx?

Ah, hate the power consumption, throws me off any component. Threw me off R600 too. Around 100W I wouldn't mind.

512bit bus is not required for 1GB. All they'd need to do a 1GB card is slap some Qimonda 1024Mbit GDDR3 chips on G92GT's board.

2 x 7900gt right?
therefore it would be better then a 8800gts, but not better then dual gts's

im not sure if u could combine two 8800gts since, them being dual slot coolers

alright, seems like there is a winner coming :)

According to HKE PC, new (g92) 8800gts 512mb will have 0.8ms GDDR3,
128 Stream Processors, 64 Texture Filtering Units, 64 Texture Address Units and 24 Raster Operations Units (could be 16 though)

Sounds good to me!

Manufacturers can choose the memory modules for themselves though, would be nice if it is indeed 0.8 ns, this card would definitely craving for some bandwidth boost.

I hope the demand won't be as high this time as for 8800GT but I doubt it... it sucks, I can't even upgrade to a graphics card I want to cuz it's sold out everywhere and has been like this for weeks now, when was it this huge supply shortage last time? I don't remember it being this bad as long as I've been active in the hardware market (talking about 8800GT & HD38x0). Hope G92 8800GTS won't be more than 270~300 EUR though.

so do I, I'd like to buy a new card but I cannot because it's sold out everywhere. no time for hesitating if you want one today you have to fight and be quick...
I'd like to see if they put samsung 0.8ns on the new GTS, it would be interesting, pretty sure it would be better than gaymonda

G92-Based 8800GTS 512 Could Possibly Arrive December 11th

It would seem as though NVIDIA is celebrating the day that I get my full drivers license, sans passenger restrictions, by releasing the revamped NVIDIA GeForce 8800GTS 512, based on the impressive G92 micro-architecture. The new 8800GTS 512 will only come in one flavor, which, as the name suggests, will sport 512MB of 256-bit VRAM. This is opposed to the previous versions, which ship with either 320MB or 640MB of 320-bit VRAM. The new 8800GTS 512 will come with 128 Stream processors, a welcome improvement from the previous 96 Stream processors. The new 8800GTS also has another welcome surprise: an engine clock of 650MHz, higher than any 8800 series GPU before it. Current rumor has it that the 8800GTS 512's 512MB of VRAM will be clocked at roughly 1.96GHz. The 8800GTS 512 should be available on December 11th for between $299 and $349 USD.

I need a keyword filter for sub emails. Things like...

"1GB"
"24 ROP"
"$299"
"1, single PCIe 6pin"
"Leds"
"Hard Launch"

No leaked mini review, no nothing .... so strange.

This is going to be a exploding performance card or it i'll going to be a floop. Hope not :(

Well from the specs it's a card between the gtx and ultra for $300+

Interesting...I have plenty of time to see what unfolds. Hopefully NVIDIA's next gen will be out by March :D

Exactly what has me occupied these days.. if in a one-off deal I can get hold of an ultra for the expected price of the G92-GTS and doing a lot of high-res gaming, what to go for.. :confused:

I'm also thinking about that. i play at 2560x1600 ... what to buy ? a second hand 300 euro gtx or a new gts or even gt ??

gtx/ultra vs gt
768mb ram vs 512
384 bit vs 256 bit
575 clock vs 600 clock
128 shaders vs 112 shaders

gtx/ultra vs new gts
768mb ram vs 512/1024
384bit vs 256bit
575clock vs 650 clock
128 shaders vs 128 shaders( higher speed )

the question is wil the extra 128 bit bus make a diffirence. And do you need less than 512mb ram , 512 to 768 or even more ram.

LyP0 , for 2560x1600 you can't play with gt for sure . I doubt gts will give decent FPS .
Personally , if the results at 1920x1200 are not good , i'll buy again a 8800gtx (i sold mine last month) .

Might want to include the extra transistors on the die, due to 65nm manufacturing.

I would buy a 65nm 1GB GDDR3/4/5 graphics card.

You think the transistor count increased due to the 65nm node?
Wow...

The main reason that G92 has more trannies than G80 is that Nvio moved on die.

Seeing how much the GT owns, this card should be incredible.

I stick with 1920x1200, already had the GT but returned as results werent good enough :(

Since it is not in fact a brand new launch but a revision of an existing product, Nvidia will not try to make much of a deal out of the launch - at least on the surface.

We already have a brand new 8800GTS 512MB in our labs which arrived early last week and before anybody asks, we are not going to say who sent it (so save your time and do not bother asking!) but the good news for our readers is that we do have it, we are testing it and putting it through the usual GPU testing paces and our opinions are being thought out.

Here are some exclusive shots of the reference style 8800GTS 512MB...

I like the sounds of it being available earlier than the Dec. 11th release date everyone has been talking about. Can't wait to see some numbers, if it's as impressive as the 8800GT is I think I'll have to pick one up.
