from what i see, it still uses yesterday's ram, ddr3. ati already implement ddr4 and ddr5 in their upcoming 4 series.. but maybe this one cost less than ATI, possible?
RegentCid
Not bad...Looking forward for this card....targeting GeForce GTX260

Any source for this article ?
Faith+1
Geforce GTX 280 looks good! thumbup.gif But I think should be cheaper than ATI new upcoming series.

But does it support DirectX 10.1? I think not. Correct me If I'm wrong. hmm.gif

1GB of RAM??? all the more reason NOT TO use 4GB of ram in a 32bit OS. it will take the 1GB addressing space above the 3GB. Not only you can't get 4GB ram, even with hack, you can't even get 3.5GB XD

what he means is the extra 1 gb of ram you installed on the system will go to waste.

32-bit system can only support a total memory of 4gb. Priority is given to other memory first before the ram. So if your GC already take up 1GB, the max ram the OS can utilize becomes 3gb only.

laugh.gif Actually only 3070MB left if you installed 4GB in 32bit OS with 1GB ram for your GC.

This is what my RAM available now. tongue.gif
Mr.Lonely
anyway another killer products... haha =D

Which is why 64 bit os's are better than 32 bits hahahaaha.

Like I said gx2 is just a temporary fastest card in the world record holder temporary....
Gtx out then gx2 is history again...haizzz.
jackyflc
Gtx 280 and 260 both is all single core leh, but yes its rumoured to be faster then the GX2 alot. No DX10.1 support . Anyways GTX 280 is highest end , so have to wait for cheaper lower versions the g200 cores like what they did with the G92.
Liuteva
What the.. 9800GX2 so fast go history.. Release no more than half years sweat.gif

The price so WTF...
The performance between the HD 4xxx series which 1 better?I mean regarding the clocks,shader..etc

read the Inquirer link laugh.gif

there is comparison at there
AMDAthlon
Do you meant this one?

"The 260 will be priced at $449 and go up against the ATI 770/4870 costing MUCH less. The 280 will be about 25 per cent faster and quite likely lose badly to the R700, very badly, but cost more, $600+."

we do have enough info from nvidia site especially actual performance . since we know 4870 performance better than 9800GTX 25% , AMD 4x00 oc to 3.1ghz score 18xxxk in 3dmark06 without oc gc . i believe if use quad core give more point ..

Yeah, GTX280 will beat RV770XT, but base on the specs, they will lose badly to R700, but it still unconfirmed until the launch date and tested by reviewer.

Nvidia says at the Editor's Day 2008:

"Just wait until June 17th when the newest series of GeForce GPU's launch, and you'll start asking yourself when you last witnessed such a dramatic technology improvement. If you thought the GeForce 8 series blew the 7-series out of the water, this is going to leave you in shock. That's not my own marketing spin... Benchmark Reviews is presently testing the new GeForce video card."

Yeah there is no way nvidia can do 280GX2 in the near future. And hopefully R700 will give serious fight to GTX280
AMDAthlon
OMG..the price really amazing.IF the HD 4850 and / or the 4870 can beat GTX 260 and or / 280 easily,i am sure ATi cards is great choice since it is cheaper.Currently,ATi can only fight with price = =
Furthermore,ATi HD 4850/4870 around 480 Stream Processor right?nVidia only 240 stream processor.. blink.gif
Based on the specs i would say ATi 4850/4870 is better..i hope it is sweat.gif
