Another one.....{Nv. video}

[Ascended Saiyan]

Yup here it is.It's about 7MB though.

 

[Vince]

Hahaha - So... what did they do for that hour?



EDIT: Does look like some dense traces....

 

[Crusher]

Those are some big cards...

 

[DeathKnight]

Much better video than the last one.

 

[Ascended Saiyan]

Yeah the card does seem kinda long doesn't it.For those 56ker's out there 3dchipset has pic of what are perceived to be Nv-30 based cards from the video.

8)

Wow! 3 Way SLI!

 

[jjayb]

"oh my god, it's got ddr2, that's unbelievable!"

whoopdideedooo

Now if they'd just tell us something we don't know. Or is there nothing to tell? Something tells me ddr2 is going to be all there is to flaunt.

"oh my god, it's got ddr2, that's unbelievable!"

whoopdideedooo

Is that compared with the:

"OM-Fuk'in-G, from my 2 microsecond view of the NV30 chip before I was overrun with the scary engineers, I see that it has a deferred shading architecture with full pipeline programmability!!" - "Awesome dude"

It's a teaser... it's funny, lighten up.

 

[cellarboy]

What they're not telling people is that those are the only three cards they have working at the moment..... !

 

[Crusher]

It looked like they were running some rendering tests on the monitor the engineers were gathered around, so that would make at least 4 cards. And it looks like another one on the other side of that table, to the left of the oscilliscope. Plus the one sitting on top of the oscilliscope that's connected to it. And there's a monitor cable plugged into a card that's plugged into a motherboard sitting on the table just to the right of the o-scope as well, so that's 7. Chances are there's a few more scattered around the room, along with the 7 chips not in boards. How many are usually in a wafer?

Just making sure that the board is ready for easily excited fan boys

Seems to be your regular stance no?

 

[Dave Baumann]

See the part on the right hand side of the card towards the top edge - kinda white thing with a silver band - guess what it is...

Seems to be a standard Floppy drive connector for the power as for R300 (even in 0,13um), i would say that the NV30 frequency is quite high!

what do you think?

 

[pocketmoon_]

SLI ? (oops Joe already said that..)

I hope one of them has my name on it

I would say it is a normal size power connector for harddisk and CD-ROM drives than a small one like the floppy connector on 9700 PRO.

I think from now on no one will complain about adding a power connector on a 3D card if the NV30 need one.

 

[Randell]

looks more like molex connector than floppy.

 

[JF_Aidan_Pryde]

There are three white strips toward the right.
They can't all be power plugs obviously..

Exciting.
