The Fermi Thread - Part 3

[Chickenfeed]

Problem is that you're talking strictly shader power - in terms of TMUs and ROPs, theyre the same or lower than the GTX 285...

Yes fair enough considering shader power alone isn't all that matters. Based on those numbers though if I am not mistaken this is where we stand. These numbers only say so much about performance / potential so this is strictly for interests sake.


HD 5870 (850core/1200GDDR5)

Pixel Fillrate : 27.2 GPixel/s (850*32)

Texture Fillrate : 68.0 GTexel/s (850*80)

Memory Bandwidth : 153.6 GB/s ((1200*4*256)/8)

GTX 480 (700core/924GDDR5)

Pixel Fillrate : 33.6 GPixel/s (700*48)

Texture Fillrate : 42.0 GTexel/s (700*60)

Memory Bandwidth : 177.4 GB/s ((924*4*384)/8)


Again doesn't say a whole lot but interesting none the less.

Thanks for that. Further supports the possibility of a 480Ultra down the road.
