The GT300/Fermi Thread

everything aside, you guys checking the Nvidia Facebook page? 32xAA :S Another good way to kill FPS without making anything look better!

Rather would like to use 8x SSAA with old games than 32x CSAA i dont think that 32x will be for MSAA, CSAA is totally lame compared to MSAA....

Ok people, Quadro NEWS. There will be 2 SKU's on launch. (Early Q2 2010) and then a mega expensive donate your organs and house SKU in Q3 2010, it would not surprise me if we see CUDA cores "cut" in groups of 32, for example 448, 480 and 512 although this is speculation, the only confirmation is that there will be 2 Quadro FX Series GPU's in Q2 2010 and "the big daddy" in Q3 2010.
If (and yes this is a big if) the same is reflected at consumer level my guess would be.

360 = 448 pipes 1.5GB of RAM
380 GTX = 480 pipes 3GB of RAM

380 ULTRA = 512pipes and 6GB of RAM and an expensive electricity bil and large carbon footprint.

Pure speculation at this stage.. all eyes on the 7th of January I guess eh?

The 6GB's or ram costs a lot and i mean a lot, if this is a consumer card nvidia may have to sell it at a loss also i do believe 6 GB's of video ram for games is more than overkill its mega overkill. Hell i prefer 6GB's of ram on a i9 than a fermi.
