9800gtx

[Monkeywoman]

The next geforce king will be the 9800GTX, these are the specs that will likely be seen in this card.

- Codenamed G100
- 65nm process
- 256 shader processors
- 780MHz core clock
- 3200MHz memory clock
- 512-bit memory width
- 2048MB (256X8) GDDR5 chips
- GDDR5 @ 0.25-0.5ns
- Dual DVI-out
- Supports DX 10.1, VP3
- 15-25% lower TDP than 8800GTS

I PRAY I PRAY I PRAY

that's enough for crysis max @ 1680*1050 4x AA

[stayfrosty]

One can only hope.. .either way this is my next card.

[revogamer]

omfg? thats like omg.. this will be my next card. GIMME!!

[One_Hertz]

extremely unlikely, we can hardly use 512mb and they come up with 2048?

[Omastar]

I thought nVidia weren't implementing GDDR5 this soon...

[revogamer]

crysis DX10 + very high + AA + AF FTW!!!

[Eddie3dfx]

Nvidia works directly with the gaming companies, so if they put 2 gigs of memory in their cards, then these new games will be using it.
Thats amazing.. I can't wait.
3200mhz clock WOW

[purefun65]

I call shens!

[Omastar]

And only $850.

[revogamer]

And only $850.

probably. is ATI gonna match this?

[lowfat]

No way will be see 2048 cards this soon.

[quadnad]

sounds too good to be true.

[Kingcarcas]

I was thinking the same thing.

[[XC] hipno650]

if this is true

i would not be to surprised it has been forever since a new card in the high end and it would be about the same leap we took form 7800gtx to 8800gtx

PLEASE be true!!!!!!! i will take 2 of those cards!!!!! 1920x1200 crysis very high DX10 8XAA anyone?

[AriciU]

If they will release a 1gb 8800GT then i see no problem with them putting 2gigs on their top of the line card.

Specs are insane anyway.

[Shaggy]

If this is true I'd wager a q3 at earliest launch.

I'd also wager this isn't true. Jump is way too big.

Yeah, I honestly think this is BS. NVIDIA doesn't even manufacture current generation 1024MB VRAM video cards. Some of their newer cards don't even use GDDR3 VRAM, and at that, 0.25-0.5ns VRAM? With this much lower TDP and all this extra power...

It really seems too over the top.

[CJ145]

O.M.G. 256 shaders!





Just please don't make it cost more than $600

[NeedMoMegaHurtZ]

And only $850.

Probably more if "2048MB (256X8) GDDR5 chips" is true

Specs look too good.

[Plywood99]

If roughly $600 it will be mine. Wont have to upgrade for two years...

crysis uses close to 950mb or vRAM with that ultra quality graphics mod with dx9. if one was to MAX out crysis in dx10 with 16xAA, thats GG for any oced 3 or 4 card set up available today. they specs shown to be in the G100 will most likely allow 50FPS MAXED OUT crysis game play.

umm quadro...

chances are the 2GB version would also be a quadro too.
