I could write the word Monkey-Chicken in brown color size 55 font, and it would not be any less pointless than the posts in this and the ATI thread, considering the lack of official specs.

Funniest (and truest) thing I have read all week.

Thats what I meant really. People (here) want the XTREME performance, not cheap mid-end cards. :P Difference between G80 and G92 is rather slim, compared to what Nvidia could've done. But yeah, this way they gain more money as they put less money on "useless(at this point)" R&D.

You can argue any point you want, but g92 and the rv670 were revolutionary for the general market because until then it was unheard of to have even higher than high end performance at less than half the price. You said it yourself, ati and nvidia are here to make money, and the performance section is a far larger market than the high end ever will be.

As for the 9800gtx, I disagree with the naming scheme, but it is by far the cheapest "high end" ever released, but it should have been called the 8900gts or something along those lines instead. That's poor naming on nvidia's front, all in all, its a great ocer, the only reason why I don't like it is that the 8800gts g92 offers everything the 9800gtx does to the casual ocers (in other words, the 4 phase psu etc won't make a difference unless you are shooting for a record)

This might be xtreme systems, but you still have to think of things from a logical point.

I just bought an 8800gts g92, but hey, if something better than the 9800gx2 comes out, I might go out and ruin my credit for it.

GT200 could have 8 ROP partitions connected with 64-bit each making up the 512-bit memory interface and up to 10 clusters of 24 SPs = 240 stream processors

That chip will run hot, considering my loud HD2900XT has the same power connectors.

Is this a dual chip NVIO-card too?

the 9900gtx will be a dual card like the 9800gx2?

just because it has the same power connectors of the HD2900??

[shiznit93]

That looks like a 8800GTX design with a couple changes.

Monkey-Chicken GTX

Monkey-Chicken GTX

let's try to get back on track, the last page has been just about monkey chicken etc

[Calmatory]

Not only because of it, but remember the rumours of +250W TDP.

Pictures of heatsink GeForce 9900 GTX (GT200)







GT200 has 240 SP, 32 ROPs, RAM 512-bit. TDP 240W

[Calmatory]

Isn't that quite much the same as this?

Updated specs



65nm process
MC 512
1GB GDDR3
240 SP
32 ROP
6+8Pin

Seems like GT200 got two versions. One is 65nm and the other is 55nm.

Probably 65nm is for first wave of GT200 cards and 55nm is for later batches.

heatsink looking exactly like expected; 8800 gts cooler, bit longer

personally i would prefer a cooler like the 9800GTX than this cooler 8800GTS style

I dunno guys, MSRP at only $499? This chip is going to be 600mm^2, and only $499? Didn't the 9800gx2 debut at $599? With the way nvidia has currently be going, I'm not sure that's a good sign that it will beat the 9800gx2 across the board
