so, they added a cluster and plan to jack up the clocks?
More SP, more TMU etc. And less transistors? And massive core clock changes.
Sounds very wishful...
Personally I would just guess its a respin with abit higher clocks.
RV775XT sounds like a nuclear furnance. And dualslot cooling for RV775Pro and with GDDR4?
I think 1GB vram default might have been better for these cards which cheaper 512MB versions offered slightly later or simililarly in smaller quanitity. I don't doubt there will be 1GB but I think that should become the default version, and 512MB would be treated as HD4870 1GB version as far as availability goes. If they wanna have something to compete with GTX 285 in sales that is, as consumers like the bigger capacity usually if cost is around the same or near. But I doubt RV775XT will cost more than $299 though and GTX 285 will prolly end up $399(+) so there will be some difference in price probably but I'd still have liked to see 1GB default.
the fact it says the xt is 512mb makes me think BS on these numbers... why would ATI release a card meant to compete with the 285 with this mem...? especially with the advantages 1gb gave to the 4870 in the ever increasing sized market for high res performance
How the heck did they add shaders, texture units, drop transister count, reduce size(without switching to a new manufacturing process) and vastly increase coreclocks to liquid cooling levels. Kind of find this hard to believe considering this is supposed to be a modest revision. I also find the bump in texture units off considering the increase in shaders.
Also why have such a powerful card that could kill anything below 1600*1200 and castrate it where it's power will not be overkill by giving it 512mb of memory?
I know AMD has been showing magic lately but this seems a little impossible. These sound like the specs of little dragon almost and rv870 like.
Sounds like a fake leaked rumor to me by AMD to deflate the NV launch of the gtx 285 and 295.
me wants xt for new rig in jan, but PLEASE, better idle power consumption
This would make things very interesting ;)
March for PRO doesn't like too good though
I'm just plain confused about idle power consumption for the 4850, have the power consumption dropped with newer SKU's or drivers or not?
Anandtech: The 4850 system uses 43 W more in idle than the GTX 260 system.
Bit-Tech: The 4850 and the GTX 260 system uses the same amount of power in idle.
:confused:
Wasn't the issue that 2D clocks didn't work correctly at first and was fixed later?
If this rv775 info hold truth, Nvidia better change GTX 265 and GTX 285 specifications or make partners OC these alot. Otherwise GTX 265 will be eaten for breakfast by RV775XT. Even the GTX 285 would be in danger. :eek:
Nvidia can't only change GTX 265 because, it would damage GTX 285 sales with being so close to it's performance.
But for now, let's take this info with grain of salt
Bittech uses i780 for nVidia cards, x38 for AMD cards.
Anandtech uses i790 for both.
Here is another one with x38 for both.

Anandtech also uses a 1200W PSU. And thats obviously not helping either due to its massive inefficiency.
This is rubbish. Effective 2800Mhz GDDR3 on a high, yet still midrange part? There are so many uneducated guesses in this table it's ridiculous!
Shintai: Yeah you're right, didnt read the whole test setup.
nice boost.. 1GHz core oc easy
but when 1GB memory?
i want 1GHz/1GHz/1GB im sure you guys aswell? :)
Looks like 40nm process is on course to come out soon!

someone @ experview was really creative... pfff
