Maybe this SKU, but I doubt that G92 will used only for one card.
You mean something like rv570 on the x1950pro and the rv570 with disabled quad's (officialy called as rv560) on the x1650xt?
Maybe this SKU, but I doubt that G92 will used only for one card.
Or something like a GX2.
Color me unimpressed if Nvidia "upgrades" from a 128 shader part to a 2x64 shader part at the high end
As long as the performance is there, who cares ?
The performance "hole" between the 8600 GTS and the 8800 GTS 320/640 is a much more urgent matter to attend to.
My bet it that they're holding on to a single GPU high-end part too, but either it's an early Spring deal, or it has been so well hidden that no one has had a glimpse of it yet.
Based on vr-zone's data it won't be there. A dual-chip card that is 10-15% faster than the Ultra is far below my expectation of what Nvidia can accomplish in 12 months since G80's launch.
If you go way back to early last year and the rumours that were then current and coming from the power supply people, it seems to me you wouldn't be shocked that the refreshes for the first Vista flagships weren't going to be performance barn burners. But then in the history of the industry refreshes have typically fit that profile anyway.
Color me very sad =) although i fully understand why this might happen.Color me unimpressed if Nvidia "upgrades" from a 128 shader part to a 2x64 shader part at the high end
How can you be sure that a single G92 won't have near-8800 GTX performance levels... ?
I thougth more about differentiation with clock-rates, which makes more sense with good yield and high potential through 65nm.
A "8700GTS"-SKU does not need so high clocks to reach its nominal performance-target, if it has two TPCs. More than 700MHz/2GHz SC does not make much sense, if it placed between 8600GTS and 8800GTS.
But on the other hand this specs are near to truth NV maybe wants stultify ATi, with a ...700-card that beats a ATi ...9x0-card (2900GT/Pro)
and replace the 8800GTS 320MB, which margins should not so high.To deactivate parts of G92 does in my eyes not make much sense, if it is two TPCs, maybe you could cut some of the Vec8-ALU (like on 8300GS), two deactivate a full TPC would end in a big G84 in 65nm with overpowered MC.
But I bet, we will see G92 until end of year on more than one SKU, which is usual for both IHVs.

When 8700gts rumor true than possible NV release first the slower G92 based card to fill the hole between 8600gts and 8800gts because rv670 based cards coming ~2months later than the rumored g92 launch, and when rv670 arrive and have better performance than 8700gts, than NV release a faster card based with single g92 GPU or AIB's coming out with factory OC'ed cards.
I'm sure 8700gts can't score default 9700point in 3dmark2k6, so vrzone wrong about the name or we can accept more cards :smile:
Is there any indication in G80-architecture or NV-patents, that two GPU-cores can work so together, that they can connect their MCs together, that they work as one big MC and so double memory like in former M-GPU-solutions is not anymore needed?
Maybe the Hybrid-SLI-Performance-Mode with asynchronous performing GPUs is a key to that question:

So the performancewise, time stand still from nov 06 well into 08? I've never seen this in this world.
Where is "my" terraflop GPU to play Crisis at HQ above 60 fps all the time?
I would be very dissapointed if there won't be any high end GPU since the G80 in the near future, a GX2 type is not what we're waiting for or it have to scale in every senario.
On the other side, the game devs are leaving the PC area massively more and more or bring some left overs with blurry console ports, so it's not needed anyway.

Well a 8700GTS will fill nicely the very large hole between the 8600 and 8800 of course, it also reminds me of the 5700U with GDDR3 memory in essence if that is what is brought out.
Assuming 8700GTS has 64 pixel shaders then this might be of interest

Just a rough and ready guide of course.
nvidia shold have had a 64 shader part with 256bit bus from the offset.

VR-Zone has some more details about G9x:
Nvidia G92 Card is 9-inch Long
Nvidia G98 on 64-bit bus to counter RV620
