NVIDIA to unveil the GeForce GT 240 in mid-November

Aside from the much-awaited line of Fermi-based GeForce graphics card is NVIDIA also planned to reveal a different model, namely the GeForce 240 GT, aimed at the mainstream market, constructed using a new generation of 40nm graphics processor company. The latest rumors have surfaced on the Internet, said card in mid-November, so ATI fans with a choice of DirectX 10.1-compliant solution that reportedly ran around the same level as GeForce 9600 GT models.

Based on the GT215 core, the upcoming GeForce GT 240 graphics card will be based on a 40nm GPU, manufactured at TSMC, will boast support for DirectX 10.1 and will be equipped with 96 stream processors. Although information about the clock speeds have not been given, is generally assumed that the GDDR5 version of this card will run at about the same level as a regular producer of chip GeForce 9600 GSO or models.

One of the biggest problems with this card is that the only strong competition from current and future products AMD will face. This is already the case with the GeForce GT 220, which was launched by the Santa Clara, California-based chip maker a while back. This card is facing heavy competition from AMD's 4670, Radeon 4770 or the recently launched Radeon HD 5700-series, which will be fast enough, even though the yield on 40nm TSMC problems.

Although the GT-240 is an interesting choice for the average PC user, player, computer enthusiasts and early adopters probably anxious to wait for the official debut of the new Fermi-based 40nm GeForce cards, which have to start somewhere before the end of this year, according to recent reports. Unfortunately we have no information on the pricing of over 240 GT, but the rumored release date is not far ahead.

AMD unveils the Radeon HD 5770 graphics card

Advanced Micro Devices, the world's second largest processor vendor has recently announced the official expansion of its updated line of DirectX 11-compatible graphics card, with the introduction of the new Radeon HD 5700-series. The new editions have already been officially approved by the Board for a number of partners and two new cards, Radeon HD 5770 and Radeon HD 5750, both aimed at the traditional market.

"The ATI Radeon HD 5800-series AMD confirmed as the undisputed leader in visual computing technology," said Rick Bergman, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Products Group, AMD. "Now the ATI Radeon HD 5700-series with the same great features, such as ATI and ATI Eyefinity Stream technology, and a complete hardware support for all DirectX 11 features and bundles them into products are priced well below $ 200. "

As you may have read in recent news articles, both cards are designed with AMD's latest 40nm manufacturing technology and are built to the upcoming DirectX 11-compatible applications to support. What are the technical specifications, the two Radeon HD 5770 and Radeon HD 5750 deliver teraflops 1.36 and 1.008 teraflops performance, respectively. While the first plant comes with a clock speed of 850MHz, is the second clocked at 700MHz a condenser. There are 800 stream production units in HD 5770 and 750 stream processing units of the HD 5750, while the memory clock is set at 1.2GHz and 1.15GHz, respectively.

While AMD took its time to officially announce these two short assessments of the two hit the web since early last week and most of the gain between the two cards as a remarkable product for ordinary users who want to upgrade their computer systems with a product that offers support for future applications.

NVIDIA is preparing for 40nm process technology

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

EVGA is rumored to have considered making Radeon cards

At the end, it has become a general trend for everyone to talk about the hard times that NVIDIA is in graphics and chipset market. Rumors have passed so far as to claim that Santa Clara-based chip maker is on track to phase chipset business, thus ending the future high-end SLI-enabled businesses. Fortunately, this is speculation later infirmed by Brian Burke of NVIDIA. But there are still enough happening around the rumors and all fairness, they certainly did not shed much light on favourable company.

Before some time, some of the big NVIDIA board partners, including EVGA and XFX are reported as considering leaving the green company. In the rumors could not determine clearly in favour of another company, which will be held dispatch provided had to talk about one in the first place, but do not include speculation AMD and Intel. As an update of that history, recent reports say that reached EVGA AMD in search of partnerships, as the former also wanted to become Radeon-based graphics card manufacturer.

Claims things are not moving further than that because AMD decline the offer iztakvayki that it has sufficient board partners. There are currently no information on XFX, the other NVIDIA board partner who has to believe that by changing parties. Also, no word on whether EVGA also tried to cooperate with Intel for its upcoming Larrabee, so this is a problem which is still surrounded by uncertainty and speculation. One thing we do know for certain, however, is that a long time partner EVGA NVIDIA is still releasing GeForce and nForce-based products, most of which are quite successful.

As mentioned above, these rumors about NVIDIA are still awaiting confirmation of that, until then, no one can say with certainty whether they are based on cold hard facts or just speculation. If they do not prove true for the future of NVIDIA does not appear that there is light. However, things have a chance to take a turn for the better after the first 55nm-based graphics cards, GT200, are exempt.

The Unika GeForce 9800GT graphics card

Reports about unreleased products sometimes get quite huge and the fact that in most cases they refer to the release date set in vague and unspecified future (usually described with equally vague "soon" term) certainly does not help. This is the case with a NVIDIA 9800GT, which is expected to fall next - on 29 July, to be more specific. As soon rebranded version of the NVIDIA GeForce 9800GT, the new card was spotted on the Internet as a custom-built version coming from relatively unknown producer.

Although most European or American NVIDIA fans may not be familiar with only one mark, it seems that Asian company already has a working 9800GT. What's more interesting is that the new card is made up differently from the reference model, providing customized dual-slot fan-grand that appears similar to that used for one of its GeForce 8800GTS card. Furthermore, the data for the new card, show that we're dealing with the standard version of the forthcoming NVIDIA G92-based cards.

This means that no factory overclocked GPU and that, except for their own grand, you get what is fairly standard performance of GeForce 9800GT graphics card. According to the results of the technical information, the card sports a 600MHz GPU, a 512MB of GDDR3 memory works at a maximum speed of 1800MHz. 112 Stream processors with clock of 1500MHz and DirectX 10 support, the new 9800GT should be introduced for gaming consumers, as relatively impressive high-performance graphics card.

The price tag for the only version of the GeForce 9800GT is not revealed but rumors say that once released, the map will be available for a price set somewhere in the $ 190 - $ 240 range.

In the only GeForce 9800GT graphics card appears to indicate that rumors about July 29 Launch date could have real grounds. It is that we will know whether NVIDIA prepares 55nm version of this card GeForce 9800GT, as well.

The new RV710- and RV730-based cards could arrive as soon as September

No one can really say that AMD is doing well that all these days, but as long as its graphics business is concerned, things seem to be shaping the way the Sunnyvale-based company wants them. And this is mostly because for the first time in years, ATI, AMD subsidiary of graphics was able to make cards that can compete with NVIDIA GeForce cards. To think about it, the future Radeon cards will continue this new trend, only about inclusion and entry-level markets.

In RV770-based graphics card series we see today will soon receive several new additions that will be targeted at high-end users. Word in the industry is that the new card, based on RV710 and RV730 chips, which we said a few things in the past, will arrive at least two months before schedule. This ultimately means that AMD will gain greater market share from NVIDIA, if in Santa Clara-based chip manufacturer fails to release it new card, just in time.

In recent rumors AMD certainly put in a favorable light, especially after the Christmas holidays are drawing near, which means that AMD will gain a greater share of PIE - that is, from shopping frenzy around the holidays. But even so, while the new chips arrive, we can not say for sure whether they will be able to compete with NVIDIA current offer. In NVIDIA GeForce 9500GT is the only weapon against RV710, but the upcoming 9800GT can be made for this purpose.

In other news, rumors of a replacement for AMD HD 3000 series with the HD 4000 - branded cards are still gaining speed. According to the website of Fudzilla, AMD does not happen just to rename the old HD 3000 cards and will completely replace them with new RV710 chips and RV730. Apparently, AMD does not want to do the same as NVIDIA, which is known for releasing the re-branded versions of the GeForce 8, and 9 GeForce cards.

Nvidia 9900GTS and 9900GTX Drawings

The two upcoming graphics cards will be powered by the GT-200 core

Two NVIDIA graphics cards, GeForce 9900 series sees itself yesterday. It is true that the images show a genius on the products is not the functional unit, but they offer additional details on a range of products brought into the secret that deep.

After a postal system in the Xtreme Forum, the two images are the pre-9900GTS cards and 9900GTX, either by GT-200 Nvidia graphics engine. The two recommendations of the Code are P65x and P651, respectively, and both are likely to come with Triple-SLI.

Nvidia SLI technology triple in the rule requires a single 8-pin power connector for the additional cards for electricity, since the PCI-Express 2.0 port can not deliver, they themselves According to the drawings, the 9900 GTS take up to 225 watts (75 watts + 150 watts), while the 9900 GTX version attract about 300 watts (75 watts + 75 watts + 150 watts).

If an 8-pin power connector power cans the card with 150 watts, a 6-pin PCI-Express network connection can not deliver those 75 watts. Despite the fact that the two cards should not draw a lot of energy (I hope), the engineers have an approach, in safety to ensure optimum performance and stability.

In addition, the two sketches reveal the presence of eight GDDR memory chips to the component in addition to the advisory, and there may be another eight to the side welding work. The store layout, it seems that the earlier rumors about a 512-bit memory controller and the alleged 512 MB, 1024 MB and 2048 MB for the references to 9900 GTX model. However, the 9900 GTS Engineering layout shows the same number of memory sockets, which can not be together with the first, or 448-bit memory controllers, or with 896 MB memory estimates.

As usual, NVIDIA has refused to give further details, as part of its policy not to comment on non-official and without notice.
