    A lot of overtime for AIBs/distributors... :lol:


    Sure, but why not this time, when NV was in past usual in front of supporting latest D3D features? :???:

    And there is still this slide, which states D3D10.1 is supported:

    All a bit strange...

    But D3D10.1 would be the final advantage against same priced RV670-SKUs.

    Once they have phased out all the G80 cores, they can enable it through the hardware as the new G92 based 8800 series fill the top?

    Quite a slap in the face for Ultra/GTX owners really.

    Adding insult to injury they start marketing the 8800 series are capable of DX10.1as soon as G80s are discontinued :lol:

    "Discontinued" doesn't mean "Disconnected".
    For instance, even the latest FW 169.01 support the old GeforceFX family (at least in WinXP).

    Not exactly always though, I mean, they even skipped DX8.1/PS1.4 completely even though R8500, released before GF4Ti-series, supported it.
    Has someone actually translated that slide?

    Interesting read. Sure makes DX 10.1 seem a bit more meaty than previously suggested.

    In the VR-Zone review, what do they mean when they mention the number of pixel and vertex processors? I thought the G92 is unified. If they're merely doing a division for maximal number of equivalent units on a previous gen. architecture, why do they come up w/ fewer vertex processors in ratio to the G80?

    They got mixed up with the ROP's, i think.
    Just a minor typo.

    Oh and if 128 SP's is indeed the core maximum and the new GTS is to take 128 SP's, then that might lead credence to the idea that a dual G92 GX2 type card with 1TF power is the next step until a new generation of video cards...

    With all the reviews poping up, I think the Rumors and Speculation thread has reached its EOL.

    Not quite yet...this is the G92 speculation thread. The 8800GT is just one SKU after all ;)

    VSs for ROPs and TFs for PSs. Sloppy.
