It is still less powerful than the GTX/Ultra but a promising hint of things to come with the new 65 nm process. The link was a mistake. They published it accidentally and pulled the page. But, there are more than a few sites with a screenshot of the leaked spec at Foxconn. http://www.realworldgamer.com/newsitem.php?id=481 And, Lavalys corroborates the rumored specs, as well.
No, you'll need at least PCIe 1.1. The card looks pretty promising, especially considering the price. Wonder how good it will overclock.
Mine's gone because I know the GT will rock, and I'm going to overclock it as much as I can. If it does not have the IHS then even better
Man the GTS has more memory bandwidth and bigger bus 328 bit buss or what not. I cant see this beating the gts
gts is much better 4 more pixel pipes Higher textel and pixel fillrate much higher bandwith the only thing the 8800gt has is a very good number of unified shaders it will be an extremely good mid-range card that will blow out any ati mid range well done nvidia
So basically you assume all benchmarks are faked? Also we don't know if the G92 has other tweaks done other than core shrinkage.
This is getting a bit ridiculous. Could it be that the dust stirred up by the hype twister has thickened to the point of obscuring the basic fact that this card will be called 8800 GT? Not 8900 GT, not GT Turbo, not GT Plus, not GT WOW, just 8800 GT. It's true that nVidia's model numbering can be confusing at times but I find it ironic that for once that a model's name is a crystal clear indication of its performance class there remains a considerable number of people who just don't seem to get it, or just don't want to get it. As for the mysterious new GTS, it is now codenamed G80-101 and [rumor] may very well end up being a good ol' GTS with 512Mb vram and slightly higher clocks that will replace both current GTS's.[/rumor] Obviously such a card would be faster than the 8800 GT, be it just because it is G80 based. Producing a single GTS would be more profitable for nVidia and its partners than having two versions and the streamlining of the high-end series be less confusing to the prospective buyer. As most of you know one can't just pick apart specs and use only the ones they like to guesstimate a card's performance, yet few people here seem to have taken the time to consider the less impressive aspects of the 8800 GT when comparing it to the GTS. A few months ago the same wishful-thinking approach had lead to predictions that $400 would buy one a card that would be massively faster than the $600 8800 GTX, I am of course referring to the 2900 XT.
