Leaked NV20 Details! [9:02 am] Rat
Thanks to Mr. Gabdab who called on our Discussion Board today morning, we got new information about the upcoming graphics solution from NVIDIA - NV20 aka GeForce III. According to this post in our Hardware Discussions Forum, here is what we may expect from NVIDIA in November:
Core: 300MHz;
Memory: 200MHz DDR SDRAM;
256bit memory bus;
12.8GB/sec memory bus bandwidth;
Fillrate 1.8Gpixel/sec (5.4Gtexel/sec);
6 rendering pipelines with 3 texturing units each;
0.15 micron manufacturing technology.
Besides, NV20 should have a greatly improved T&L engine and should be fully compliant with DirectX 8.0. As far as the performance goes, it is expected to be just outstanding: at the resolution set to 1600x1200x32 the system built with an Intel Pentium III CPU shows around 100fps in Quake3.
The new wonder from NVIDIA is supposed to be presented at COMDEX Fall 2000 and should cost around ~$800.
P.S.: As you can see, this info is absolutely different from what has been said before about NV20. Therefore we cannot vouch for the truth of these specs. You are most welcome to discuss this information here.
800 bucks!! Not even Nvidia would do that.
