Found this while on google : nVidia 8900

[d44ve]

OK, So I found this while bored googling stuff.... I am sure this had been talked about before, I just havent seen it. It was posted back in Feb. on the site, so please forgive me if this is old news to you.

What do you know about this?

the Columns in order are:
Model name, GPU/RAM speed, Memory type, Memory width(bus speed), amount of memory, pipelines, manufacturing process and Pricing

well this is what else I found

To counter the ATI R600 products, Nvidia is well prepared to meet the R600. NVIDIA plans for the future of the five new products are : 8950GX2, 8900GTX, 8900GTS, 8900GT and 8900GS.



GeForce 8950 GX2搭载两个G80核心，核心频率定为550MHz，显存方面同7950GX2类似，分别安装在两个PCB板上，一共嵌入1GB得256-bit GDDR4显存，显存频率为2GHz，Shader单元为96x2，最终售价将是600美元左右；8900GTX工作频率提升到700MHz，而显存的容量和带宽，相比8800GTX不变，为768MB 384-bit GDDR4，但频率提升翿2200MHz，Shader单元为128个，定价为550美元左右。GeForce 8950 GX2 carrying two G80 core, the core frequency to 550MHz. RAM connection with the 7950 GX2 similar, installed in the two PCB board. GB were embedded in a 256-bit video memory GDDR4, memory frequency of 2GHz. Shader units to 96 x2, the final price will be around 600 U.S. dollars; 8900GTX frequency upgraded to 700MHz, and memory capacity and bandwidth, Compared to 8800 GTX unchanged at 768 MB 384-bit GDDR4. However, upgrading railway frequency 2200 MHz, Shader units to 128, priced at around 550 U.S. dollars.

8900GTS依旧可以看做是8800GTS的超频版，核心/显存频率为600MHz/2000MHz，显存是640MB 320-bit GDDR4，Shader单元128个，售价500美元；8900GT的显存位宽为256-bit，Shader单元96个，搭载512MB的1800MHz GDDR3显存，核心工作频率600MHz，售价400美元。8900GTS still can be seen as 8800GTS version of overclocking, core / memory frequency of 600 MHz/2000MHz. RAM is 640 MB 320-bit GDDR4, Shader unit 128, price of 500 U.S. dollars; The 8900GT video memory bit-to 256-bit, Shader unit 96, carrying 1800 512 MB of GDDR3 video memory. core frequency of 600 MHz, the price of 400 U.S. dollars. 8900GS同8900GT规格差异不大，但频率只有550MHz/1600MHz。8900GS with little difference between 8900GT specifications, but only 550MHz/1600MHz frequencies.

As famous AMD is preparing the debut of one new family of GPU, notes with the name coded of R600 and characterized from use it of an architecture to shader unifica you. These solutions will go to posizionarsi to direct competition of the solutions GeForce 8800, even if NVIDIA is preparing the own proposal alternative for new GPU AMD.

We speak about GeForce 8900 GTX, name off board but that logic and the history of previous GPU NVIDIA leave to imagine: being to the indiscretions currently available parrebbe that this card video is based on the same chip G80 adopted from the solutions GeForce 8800 currently in commerce, but that it is equipped of a greater number of stream processors.

We remember as the GeForce cards 8800 GTX are characterized from 128 stream processors to the just inner one, value that comes down to 96 in the GeForce solutions 8800 GTS. Parrebbe that the GeForce cards 8900 GTX have 25% of stream processors in more regarding the GeForce cards 8800 GTX, figure that of it it would make therefore to go up the number until to 160.

If these information came some confirmed it would deduce that NVIDIA has developed to the GPU G80 integrating sin from origin 160 stream processor, disabilitandone then some therefore to obtain the versions of GeForce cards 8800 GTX and GTS currently in commerce and leaving space for successive evolutions of the chip, without having for this reason to proceed to the construction of one new architecture. This would justify the total surface of the GPU G80, altogether much elevating.

The GPU G80 difficultly, in the overcloccate versions of series currently available on the market, succeed to operate stablily and in volumes MHz elevates to you to the 630 advanced frequencies to; it is therefore presumable that a GeForce solution 8900 GTX, if bound together to GPU G80 with 160 stream processors active, can be commercialized to the 600 frequencies near MHz, even implementing on board a greater number of chip memory therefore to widen the bus until to the 512 bit that, being to the several indiscretions published in these months, would have to characterize AMD the R600 solutions.

what ever happened to the 8800GX2? i remember reading about that on here

what ever happened to the 8800GX2? i remember reading about that on here

I wonder if that could be done on air. The G80s are pretty hot to be sandwiched together like that.

Unless they plan to seperate the cores.

its not so good news if its true and if it is i hope its out next year i just lapped 380 euros for the GTS640 and my girl gone kill me if i want 2 buy soon a ohter one

or it must be out in the next 90 day if u know what i mean lol
