NVIDIA G80 Specs revealed
October. 06, 2006 @ 07:54AM GMT +10 |
DailyTech report that the NVIDIA G80 specs have been revealed:
NVIDIA has code-named G80 based products as the GeForce 8800 series. While the 7900 and 7800 series launched with GT and GTX suffixes, G80 will do away with the GT suffix. Instead, NVIDIA has revived the GTS suffix for its second fastest graphics product—a suffix that hasn’t been used since the GeForce 2 days.
NVIDIA’s GeForce 8800GTX will be the flagship product. The core clock will be factory clocked at 575 MHz. All GeForce 8800GTX cards will be equipped with 768MB of GDDR3 memory, to be clocked at 900 MHz. The GeForce 8800GTX will also have a 384-bit memory interface and deliver 86GB/second of memory bandwidth. GeForce 8800GTX graphics cards are equipped with 128 unified shaders clocked at 1350 MHz. The theoretical texture fill-rate is around 38.4 billion pixels per second.

Developers dont like High PS3 Price
July. 23, 2006 @ 12:43AM GMT +10 |
High PS3 pricing is pushing away game developers! Sony may be up for a challenge this time around! There's never been a company that has dominated the video game business for three straight console generations. Can Sony pull it off? It's not looking good as the high price seems to be putting off not only prospective consumers but also developers, and that could be a vicious circle. Read more. |

Inno3D 7300GT Review [InHouse]
July. 20, 2006 @ 11:53PM GMT +10 |
Quote:
The review samples received were two Inno3D 7300GT cards with 256MB of DDR3 memory, core clock speeds at a decent 550MHz and memory at a similarly conservative speed of 1400MHz. The DDR3 version of the 7300GT has stirred a bit of interest since it offers excellent performance at such a reasonable price. Since the likes of the 7600GT are priced at ~$300AUD plus, it’s no wonder that attention has turned to this card. The DDR3 version is intended to go up against ATi’s X1600XT, while the DDR2 versions are supposed to compete against the X1300 range of cards. Importantly, NVIDIA have considered Windows Vista with the 7300GT and as such comments that it’s completely Vista compatible. There’s been a bit of interest in the SLI side of things too, and since we’ve got two of them today, we’ll take a look at SLI. These cards are priced rather competitively at around $200AUD, which sits them perfectly in the price range of a budget pc builder.
