GT300 to Pack 512 Shader Processors

[btarunr]

ID is releasing a new engine, Epic is releasing a new engine and im sure Crytek is working on something.

IDTech5 is SM3.0 (OpenGL 2.x, DirectX 9.0c), and UnrealEngine 4 is ~three years away from implementation.

Many games are going to benefit from this monster , many current games :

1-Of course the ever mighty game : Crysis or Crysis Warhead .

2-STALKER : Clear Sky at maximum details .. and high resolution

3-The newly released HAWX , with support of DX10 (very heavy game ) .

4-Games with SSAO (Space Screen Ambient Occlusion) enabled -in the new Nvidia driver- , which decrease performance by 50% or even more , but increase imgae quality .

5-Many games are not playable at 2500x1600 , 4XAA , unless you use a dual card like 4870X2 and GTX295 .. for those who don't like dual solutions , this monster will be their favorite .

6-Adding DX10 support for new titles , will make them even more taxing .

HAWX doesnt belong in that list. i can max it out at 1080P (10.1, 8xAA) with a single 4870, running two is just overkill on it.

This is going to be the second coming of Christ/8800GTX. I am sure it will cost a bomb too.

 

[Mussels]

I am sure it will cost a bomb too.

Why what a coincidence: i happen to have one, barely used bomb right here to trade for your shiny video card!

 

[DeathTyrant]

Is it HE or Frag? If it's still nice and shiny I might accept.

its only been used once by a previous owner, i'm sure you can piece it back together!

Hey, this is serious bidness.
Back on topic, I really do wonder what the cost will be. It's a good thing that ATI have put a hurtin on NVidia for a while now, hopefully that will keep the price down at least a little. But all these crazy specs could make for a pricey vard indeed.

 

[Mussels]

prices are always nearly the same thing.

GTX 280 came out at $600 or so Au, then the prices dropped and the new cards came out at that price... rinse and repeat.

There wont be any surprises in the price, rarely is.

 

[DeathTyrant]

I suppose you are right. I won't mind the price too much if it lives up to these expectations.

that card is going do be a beast
