GeForce GTX295 Card Exposed

[Sr7]

If you insist Trini...

Once sideport is needed and enabled, then it will have its architectural advantages, yes? I know that has little to do with 2 vs 1pcb but...

You guys view the sideport as this holy grail of performance unlocking, which is always just over the horizon.

The sideport is for facilitating faster inter-gpu transfers, so there's less stalling when a lot of resource transfers need to occur often. Most games have profiles created to stop these transfers anyway, so the hardware implementation is only really useful in a generalized case without a profile. It doesn't necessarily speed anything up when compared to a game with proper CF profile support where transfers are already minimal.

Ridiculous. NVIDIA can't force anyone to run the settings and games they want. They may make recommendations but that's it.

Any reliable source for this? 500€ sounds about what I would expect though, like $599 in USD MSRP I would guess. Of course europe's high taxes and low availability at launch will probably push them at least to 550 EUR, but let's just hope NV won't pull another 8800 Ultra as far as price and availability goes.

[YukonTrooper]

Looks good

Looks exactly like a 9800GX2.

[GAR]

NDA is lifted tommorow im guessing, Hilbert at Guru3d will have a full review tommorow the 18th

[zlojack]

I think it will be more of a "preview" type thing, no?

Nope, a full review should be up tommorow.

[Nomadsoul]

Well, I hope NV projected GTX 265 MSRP of $229.99, GTX 285 $299.99 and GTX 295 $399.99 is right.
