triple DVI-D , if its evga it could be another experiment , like 280+92 gpu for physx :p:

That single SLI bridge suggests this a double-GPU. Then you can run quad-SLI, just like GTX295.Quote:

damn it.... now wheres antillies!
me loves!!!
And global foundaries, If they come up with a 580x2 then i think this card will be so powerful it's power level will read over 9000! :shocked:Quote:

hrmmm? gf104 chips??...its gotta be gtx560orgtx570 chipsQuote:
was a gargantuan dual-GPU model set to launch sometime in the spring. Although we couldn't tease too many details from the reps on hand, we know it'll be based on two GF104 chips, carry 2GB of memory, support three-screen surround gaming out of the box and cost less than a GTX 580. As you can see, it also dwarfs the watercooled GTX 580 that we had on hand for comparison.
2 570s at best :(
Yep, 570 x2 at best considering the price, but it should still be better than a single GTX580 once you overclock it. I like the idea of a single card for Nvidia surround. If it makes it to market as is priced around the $400 marker this will be my next card.
so many good news comming from ces
this will help keep the pricing on antilles not so high
:D
best news so far are vanilla 6970 in CF mode :D
Cost less than a 580? No chance in hell its GF110 then. Likely 460s (GF104 as hinted) and *mabey* 560s with revised clocks. It looks longer than the 5970 though :eek: I would like to see a dual gpu card with 2 560s and high clocks though, should give a 5970 a run for its money, I just don't see this at under $500usd, just wouldn't make sense performance / placement wise.
GTX560x2 I guess. Still, quite a nice looking card. The cooler seems great! :up:
The pricing and the availability might be able to spoil the picture, though.
Can you even get GTX560 to do Quad SLI?
I really hope they used at least two 570 cores on this card would be a monster. Would have been great if TSMC did not scrap 32nm for 28nm, because being stuck on 40nm has limitations.
Just curious, is it possible to put a physx chip besides the 2 main chips? Hmmm...:rolleyes:
There are 4 memory chips on the back. So unless there are 6 somehow stuck in the front, the memory bus is only 256bit. So either an even more castrated GF110 (think gtx465), or it's GF1x4.
that is big and it is real. whatever it is, it will battle 6990 to the death.
gtx 295 called. it wants to retire.
can you tell from the back what it is? I would embed these but they are too huge. suffice it to say the back looks like a 460 to me.

with 2x GTX460 or 560 ( Hexus say GF104 not 114 and cost less of a 580 so ), will be hard to fight with the 6990 with the actual scaling of crossfire. if it's just GF104x2 and they need to down the clock, im not even sure it will fight with 5970 and specially not OC retail Version, Ares, or the Toxic one. ( I just have watch 4 reviews with 460SLI vs 5970, they don't close it )Quote:

Completely agree with you... this will be great for Surround, and surely a little beast card, specially for this price. A price so low can explain the GF104, they use the old stock and they clean it for the 560.Quote:

EVGA Displays Non-Reference Dual-GPU and GTX 570 Graphics Cards
Quote:
The double-slot, long graphics card presumably uses two GF110 GPUs to make a SLI on a stick solution. There are two possibilities about the configuration of the two GPUs looking at the eight 1 Gbit memory chips (four per GPU area) on the reverse side of the card: First being 1 GB per GPU over 256-bit memory interface; and second being 12 memory chips on the other side, amounting for 1280 MB per GPU memory over 320-bit memory interface for a core config identical to that of the GeForce GTX 570.
Around March .... not before anyway ( french sites confirm 2x GF1x4 and they are in CES as they cover it ).Quote:

1GB total memory? WHAT?
Yeap - that's my guess too :cool:Quote:

Take a look a the back of the card:Quote:

Notice the area which coresponds to the position of the two GPUs. Now compare to:
570: http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/A.../back_full.jpg
460: http://www.hardwareheaven.com/review...x-460_back.jpg
Which is more likely? :)
Someone commenting on the Fudzilla link says "EVGA mentioned GF11x - they did't specifically say GF110"… interesting.Quote:

FUD? lolQuote:

It's GF114 in all likeilihood
Stop the dreaming: that chip configuration TechPowerUp makes no sense. How do you have 4 on one side then 8 on the other without those traces/soldering points anyways?Quote:
Originally Posted by Sam_oslo

Besides, 12 chips is 1536 MB, 10 is 1280, which TUP wrote incorrectly. Besides, the back side pins say it all:

Maybe if we could see the back of a 114 based card.
it's probably a "classified" card with custom drivers for quad-sli, like the GTX285 "classified"Quote:

A good reason for don't use the GF110, is the cost, 2x 580 chips will bring a big price on the cards, then the clock, with lower chips, they can clock it alllready well, and keep some room for overclocking...
What I see is a useless product.
Since it is clearly not 2x GTX580, it will be bu** f**ked by 6990, worse then shower scene from American History X...
What annoys me is...
AMD clearly has a leap that they can actually make products that does not require a powerplant for working, allowing nice multi GPU products... Yet still, having this leap over nvidia, no one has come up with the bright idea "Why not start optimizing for 8 GPU?"..
Who on gods earth would ever want to buy 4x GTX580 if being able to use 8 GPU's from AMD? (4x dual GPU) Answer is simple; Marketing department from nvidia, would be useless to each and every other living person on planet earth...
If its a 4 GB, 2 GB effective card, it can still have uses. Would be a good folding card or cuda or tesla card on the cheap.
1. The market for this would less than 0.001%.Quote:

I really do hope that this card will have at least more than 2.5GB of memory, because 1GB per core just isn't cutting it anymore.
Hitches that are to be overcome with ease.Quote:

I agree! I have been looking to upgrade from a GTX 295 Single PCB and have been waiting for the next nVidia Dual GPU monster.Quote:

Who knows, maybe nVidia are doing to do a new SKU, perhaps a GF110 with 448 pipes per GPU.
Remember nVidia did that with the GTX 295 and then released the 275 afterwards. I might be wrong, but essentially a GTX 295 is two GTX 275's on one card with a slightly lower clock rate to reduce power consumption and thermal limitation.
I really really do hope that we see a 448piper with ~2GB per GPU. I keep thikning that IF the GTX 295 had 1.7GB per GPU it would have been a monster card, instead of a fast card.
John
AMD are not the ones that would waste resources on that. nVidia is the company for PR Stunts.Quote:

Good point.Quote:

huum do you think to an Evga quad-8 SLI dual CPU classified based on socket 2011 ? I try imagine the beast with 2x 6 cores on it.
Dunno about 8-Way... 3-Way for dual-GPU boards sounds reasonable, though (6-Way effective, and much better interconnection between GPUs than for 8-Way, since you have a single leading card and two others connected to it directly by dual bridge each). No need for super long XL-ATX boards in this case.
It's is too early to say anything for sure, but the trend in clear, both Intel and AMD has taken strategic steps toward multi-core and multi-socket. Multi is the big buzz-word in these days!Quote:

We have to wait and see if any of this happen, but I personally think we can expect some existing stuff on multi-socket SB.
Until then, a quad-SLI ( 2 x 570x2 ) on SR-2, or on X58 with 970/980x/990x would be the big monster on the block, and a great option.
i can only dream of havving a dual socket system with 4 dual gpu cards in it on a big eyefinity setup ... now that would own
FUD: Geforce GTX 595 has two GF110s
I would like to point out that this is a rumour, and I am not sure Fuad has sufficient evidence... Best keep it in mind. As for myself, I am not convinced.Quote:
One thing is sure, Nvidia's dual-chip Geforce GTX 595 packs two GF110 cores. This is the chip behind Geforce GTX 580 and it is not exactly the coolest chip around. We can also deny any plans for a GF104-based dual-card from Nvidia.
The card has a dual-slot cooler with three fans on it, at least the one from EVGA does and we can expect that the card will end up quite fast.
Judging by the two 2x4 PCIe connectors the total power available to the card is 225W and we can only hope that consumption won't be too bad. It will most certainly be hot, but end users like silent fans and they kind of make peace with the fact that they are getting one very hot but extremely fast card.
AMD's dual-GPU Antilles card is scheduled to appear in late Q1 and it will also end up pretty hot and fast.
225watt on dual 580 ... yeahh sure ....
I think FUD have not completely rest from Christmas Hollydays and Eve Party, 225W with 2x GF110 when 1 eat 250W....Quote:
