I'm just hoping their high-end and 2nd to high end of next gen cards have 512-bit or 384-bit buses again.
There are definite points (AA enabled in resolutions 1920x1200 or higher) where the extra memory bandwidth is vital. As I plan on owning a 24" LCD widescreen with my tax rebate (it's a maybe at this point) that is something that I look forward to. :)
no 9-series card will have greater-than-256-bit-wide memory. sry.
512 bit bus would've cost a fortune, which is probably why they didn't do it. Not to mention the fact that the 2900XT had it and sucked anyway.
True, but nVidia actually has the horsepower to take advantage of the bandwidth it seems, at least up to the 384-bit bus on the 8800GTX/Ultra
Just FYI: According to the genus book of world records the world’s most powerful computer runs at 8.5 petaFLOPS.
If you're going to necro a 4 year old thread to post something that has no relevance whatsoever, at least have the intelligence to spell the only proper noun in your post correctly.Quote:
