:toast: Looking good, quite literally.
looks like the GeForce 8600Ultra will be about half the performance of a 8800GTX.
Now this I like, looks more decent ;).
Looks sexy. :)
No PCIe power connector required??
Sorry 4 that in most forums you don't have this option, didn't see it :p:Quote:

Guess it's on 128 Bits :( - GT doesn't look very promising, Ultra seems similar whit actual 7600GT but might have better performance in DX10 if the specifications related to it or true.
am I the only one here that finds the matching number of transistors for the 8600Ultra and the 8600GT rather surprising (considering the different number of shaders)
Lazer cut? BIOS Disabled?
What kind of performance should we expect out of this from DX9 games? 7950 ish?
Remember this is not your average chip. 300M transistors is nothing to sneeze at, so they always have the yield issue. If these specs are indeed true.Quote:

The most important info we miss here is the memory buswidth. What would they mean with "CMOS"?
1400MHz 128bit GDDR3 ????????
same memory bandwidth as the 7600GT
the card wont be faster than the 7900GTO @ Dx9 games
Sign me up, my 7600GT is getting a little long in the tooth and I'm maxed at 1280X1024 so no need for a monster card.
But wouldn't the Ultra atleast have to be 256bit because of the 512MB RAM??Quote:

the bigger PCB size
the higher manufacture cost & final price
So the unofficial vote so far is that it will be around 7900GT speeds then?
half 8800GTX will be like thisQuote:

Damn, im gona get at 8600Ultra for my old AMD rig :D looks very nice.
8600 series will be 256bit, hold the mouse to "CMOS" text and see :toast:
This card will be my upgrade from 7600GT and GS.
at the bottom of the link in the TS u can go to page 2 wich brings info on the 8300 cards.
http://66.249.93.104/translate_c?hl=...language_tools
although the amount of transistors in the 8300 seems a bit off.
i bet the 8600u will overclock like crazy....2 of those in sli will be nice on an asus 650 board. the ultimate budget pc lol.
$180 for the 512mb version, right?
İ Like İt :banana:
Stupid question.
Will it work with my nforce 570? I mean, it should
work on any PCIx16 bus, right?
yes it will work :)Quote:
