Which slide was that?
VR-Zone: G96, G94 and G92 @ 55nm
- Thread starter AnarchX
- Start date
Apparently one stating (falsely?
) that the HD 4670 is going to be priced at 120$.Personally, I'd also like to see such a slide very much to have a good laugh.
This was an NV slide.

But it seems like CJ said, that there >$100 hope will not full-filled.
btw.
IT168 says, that 9550GT will be based on G92(B) with 96SPs, 128-Bit and 4-layer PCB:

Maybe Nvidia was not counting in US-Dollars anymore?This was an NV slide.

Indeed, that slide was not, as far as I'm aware, anything to do with us. And it seems, if it was an NVIDIA slide, there has been some hasty tweaking of what's lined up in their stack even since then!

121mm² is what you would expect a 10% (i.e. 21% in two dimensions) linear shrink of G96a to be, so yes, that's nearly certainly a 55nm chip. (sigh, it's still amazing to me how bad NV's G84->G96b's shrink is; 13x13->11x11 for a full-node improvement... I don't think G96b is at UMC, either, but I could be wrong)

You want to see something amazing? =)
That's supposedly GT200 die...
...But it doesn't look like GT200 die and it's size is much smaller (G80 die is different too although the size is more or less comparable).
Any ideas what this is?

Well, that's the question -- what is it? =) I was told (basically by NV) that this is GT200 but it certainly doesn't look like it. And i have my doubts about this being GT200b or GT206 or something else.22*22 = 484mm²
583 * 0.81 = 472mm²
Pretty much what you'd expect for a "nearly-straight-but-not-optical shrink" IMO, *if* that is what it is...

It was a bit early for them to have non-working GT200b or GT206 samples.

With several 55nm versions of other GPUs coming within a couple of months of the 65nm versions, it seems NVidia's roadmap is in a bit of a state, so I'm not sure what can be concluded about timings.
Also, at the last CC NVidia said that all GPUs in manufacturing are 55nm now. And it's almost a year since GT200 should have launched, so a 55nm version arriving shortly shouldn't be surprising.

So the result is that this is GT200b? =)
Here's another picture, with broken G80 side by side:

How do you know that? Is this die shot showing it?
