Nvidia GT300 core: Speculation

[Sinistar]

The ATI Radeon HD 5870 and the ATI Radeon HD 5850 are being released before the Windows 7 launch that will see DirectX 11 launched. AMD estimates that it will be six months before any other graphics cards come out that support the standard.

Never heard of V3 myself.

They do, thanks. Seems it was just a nasty 24 hour thing, they're up and about now and causing trouble...they're going back to school tomorrow.

On a proud personal note this is the first day of school either has missed this year, and neither has had the schools call home for trouble yet....a new personal best.

WHOT?!?

I wonder when Charlie is going to write about this particular nvidia DX11 chip, that was supposed to totally rock our world in 2009, is going up for a re-spin soon.



Don't hold your breath kids!

Edit: I now realize I'm the last person on B3D to mention Fermi in relation to GT300 a couple of days before Fuad mentioned it. Can you guys make me his source too now?

actual source ->

Well, IF it is "Fermi", then it won't even be G*T* 300, will it?
- it will be a GF GPU. If that is true, it is a pretty big architectural change, isn't it

The GT200 never existed, only two "G200" made at 65nm and 55nm TSMC, according to the writings on the metal cap over the core packaging...

Most of us generally know, it's just a social experiment to see if everyone keeps up saying GT long enough NVIDIA will start using it as a code

 

[Rys]

GF100. That is all

 

[Arty]

GF100. That is all

If that is a hint, then I'm going to have to borrow Dave's frying pan.

 

[cho]

GF100. That is all

you are right :smile:

 

[bowman]

GT200 was way better than G200.

 

[Rys]

you are right :smile:

I hope so!

 

[trinibwoy]

Mother F#@$2@$! Stop with the teasing!

 

[nAo]

I am glad Rys and his diagrams are back

 

[ChrisRay]

Rys is going to sleep you guys. lol. Ain't he a bastard?

 

[rjc]

I hope so!

Er unless my eyes deceive me in the corner is a legend, a single block containing 16 shaders - and counting there are 2 sets of 8 blocks of these in the main diagram -> 16 x 16 = 256 shaders? That's quite a drop from the original 512

Can almost read the text, just not quite.

..anyone good with photoshop to unblur a little bit?

 

[apoppin]

GF100. That is all

that is the most logical choice for new architecture
- although personally i like GFX 90

GF for GeForce, GPU Fermi and GirlFriend

Yep, it's definitely 16 clusters. And it looks like 16 thing-a-majigs in the legend. /shrug.

Yes, but not like Dolly Parton


She certainly could be GF 100
