Written by IT News on 9:39 AM
According to the latest information on NVIDIA's upcoming graphic products, the Santa Clara chip maker plans to release its very first 40nm graphics, even before the competitor AMD has a chance to supply their own 40nm-based solutions. Apparently, NVIDIA will increase to the next generation of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company) 40G process with the introduction of new mobile chip, codenamed N10x.
At present, there is no information on availability and official release date, but according to VR-Zone, NVIDIA will try to be the first to offer a 40nm graphics cards, thus increasing its chances of winning the number one spot in the graphics card market. One of the most interesting aspects of the release is rumored that the company is said to be for the application of the new manufacturing technology for its mobile graphics chip company, a department which has recently suffered stunning losses due to some reported bugs in chips.
Moreover, the abovementioned site even suggests that NVIDIA might seek to roll out a dual-chip solution for its newly released GT200 graphics core. This would ultimately increase the company's ability to regain market leadership over competitor AMD, which took a step further by dropping its Radeon HD 4870 X2 graphics monster.
No details about the future 55nm GeForce graphics cards are available, either in 40nm parts are scheduled to arrive, but in view of NVIDIA's current situation on the market, 40nm-based graphics cards can only be one of the best solutions for that.
Currently, AMD's ATI graphics subsidiary, is the only graphics card manufacturer who has managed to deliver a high-performance graphics card solution based on 55nm manufacturing technology. The company's entire Radeon HD 4000 series product range has been very successful despite the latest NVIDIA high-end GeForce card. The release of dual-GPU 4870-based cards have made it possible for ATI to claim the leading position in the graphics card market
