The GT300/Fermi Thread

[neliz]

Yea like price for example. I want something not higher than 300$.

GTX380 Price and Power usage will rival HD5970 (290W~ish.)

g*dd*mm*t.. I hate it when I post news and no-one quotes me within one minute.. you bunch of haters! Are you refreshing Page 48 or too busy editing the tags?

Also, there's a bigger chance of GTS parts arriving to market first. Priced at a much more sane HD5770/HD5830 level.

thought nvidia said it will be a few months till the lower end cards will come?

mid-range parts were always scheduled for Q2, a full half year after the supposed introduction of GF100.

Based on GF104 ?

[neliz]

Based on GF104 ?

Yes, gt200 replacement, like juniper replaced RV770.

edit: Okay, who's the joker with the Robocop tag?

[Jamesrt2004]

good point...



any admins see this please sort out the tags its anoying now.

[Luka_Aveiro]

The tags are hilarious

[Mk]

loool @Tags just saw that!

Soundz good for a price war

15000P not bad at all ...

fakex0rs I posted it, might be true, might not be. Just strange that donanimhaber.com posted it just 2 hours later..

The tags are hilarious

ROFL yeah I especially love the Global Warming and "A wild Fermi appears!" ones.

good point...

Humor is bad!!! BAD!!!! .

[Luka_Aveiro]

I loved the

I'd buy that for a dollar

ATI #2 again

global warming

will it play crysis

yes it will @ 100fps

[OverShocked]

Damn this is killing me.

I think whoever put that second tag has played way too much Pokemon or way too many RPGs

Seriously, though, where's the info? I want to see what Nvidia has (or doesn't have) to offer!

[Carfax]

Didn't Nvidia claim they would get the dual GPU cards out about 3 months after the single GPU cards launch?

[saaya]

There actually are many serious drawbacks of 3D shutter glasses. First of all, they reduce the contrast/brightness of the monitor, and they can affect color accuracy.

and passive glasses dont?

Secondly, "crosstalk" might be an issue when your screen doesn't response fast enough. Crosstalk happens when the pixels don't switch fast enough, so your right eye sees residue images of the left eye; and vice versa. In order to minimize crosstalk, a very fast panel is required, so 3D monitors today have to use TN panel out of necessity.

i know, but i dont see how this is a mayor issue that cant be overcome... and i havent noticed any problems with this when using the glasses tbh... i havent used them much and not for several hours in a row though tbh...

Thirdly, shutter glasses work by rapidly blocking your eyes. So ambient light gets blocked repeatedly which can cause a "flickering ambient light" problem. It's best if you use 3D shutter glasses in a very dark environment to minimize this.

yes, this is what i notice as well and its very annoying... in the crt days everybody used 60hz or 85, while for me there was even a difference between 100 and 120hz... not a big one, but i def liked 120hz more (had a very nice belinea monitor )
i remember when i visited somebody elses place and saw their 60hz screen i seriously couldnt use it... 85hz was acceptable but was annoying.

anyhow, im drifiting ot
i think the flickering problem will be solved with 200hz+, giving each eye 100hz, and its probably not as much of a display flicker thing, but more of a periphal vision flicker problem, as our periphal vision is a lot more sensitive to fast movements, especially if its high contrast stuff (bright room/closed shutter)

Fourthly, your left and right eye never really see an image together; but they alternatively see an image for each eye. I suspect that this is the reason why 3D shutter glasses give me a headache in any fast moving scene. For this reason alone, I refuse to use 3D shutter glasses. Only polarized glasses are comfortable for me to use.

this is something that might be an actual deal breaker for this tech... while i agree that this might not be the best way to do 3d, i think its def the best out of the possibilities we had to get this stuff started (again)... i mean theres a reason 90% of the display vendors decided to go for the active shutter glass tech...

So, I'd wait until 3D polarized monitors to show up (no idea how they can technically do this though). 3D shutter glasses are deal-breaker for me.

yeah i know about all those issues, but every tech has its drawbacks... ive been at the display tradeshow here in taipei last year where the big panel makers showed all their latest stuff, and they had several 3d techs... and the only decent one was with active shutter glasses...

there was one with passive glasses and a double panel merged into one with interleaved horizontal lines to create one matrix with different polarization for each line, AND the cheaper version with a conventional panel with plastic foil on top that changes polarization of half of the horizontal lines. those worked alright, but not great... the active shutter glass stuff looked much better to me...

First whitepaper video is up

edit: okay, so.. XS didn't have money for youtube embedding, understandable.. but PLEASE stop F'ing with the thread tags!

that video is so not funny to me...

GF104 out before GF100? any idea on specs or target perf of GF104? GTX285 perf+dx11?

thought nvidia said it will be a few months till the lower end cards will come?

yeah but they said that a few months ago ^^

[saaya]

Didn't Nvidia claim they would get the dual GPU cards out about 3 months after the single GPU cards launch?

nah, no way man... nvidia doesnt use definite terms like that when talking about the future... they said "real soon" and "only a few months" and stuff like that all the time... the only definite timeframe they used was "november", cause they had to use at least ONE defined timeframe...

and who knows, maybe they will launch a dualgpu card in november 2010 and then say "we told you it would launch in november..."

[NapalmV5]

^ "fermi in november" tag

[NapalmV5]

30 minutes to 9 PST

30 minutes to more tags..

[ethomaz]

Now is 5:20 PM on Pacific Time (Ex: Los Angeles)... so more 3 hours and 40 minutes.

[trinibwoy]

30 minutes to 9 PST

Lol, it's probably a lot easier to just come back at that time though

@zalbard, the 5970 SIX will be a good counter if it has higher clocks and performance, not because it has 2GB RAM or six display outputs.

yeah, totally agree...

[NapalmV5]

~3~ hours left if tonight

if so keep an eye on NVDA stock

invest.. make $.. get you that fermi!

[Manicdan]

no one is gonna be awake at 9pm pacific time, so lame
