Ever since ATI took nvidia’s flagship status away from them with the 4870X2, rumours have run wild would what nvidia would have up its sleeve to combat it. With the mediocre release of a new GTX 260 now behind us rumours have resurfaced that we could see nvidia’s new flagship model by years end.

An anonymous source within the ranks of nvidia has is stated the card will be manufactured on a 55nm process with 2 GTX 280 chips and employ GDDR5 memory. If these rumours prove to be true this will be one hell of a card should be able to render crysis at 2560×1600 with quad SLI enabled. As for pricing we expect nothing under US$600 or AU$800 on release.

Totally Unr3al

Aunque el título sugiera una cosa extraña como podría ser una filtración con imágenes de los ordenadores de la NASA, en este caso siento deciros que no es así, pero sí vais a poder ver lo más parecido a uno de los ya mencionados. Y aquí lo podeís ver;

Se trata del nuevo Acer Predator, como se puede apreciar no es un ordenador de el que nos vamos ha aburrir ya que su diseño y sus componentes hacen de él una bestia para los Gamers. Con un procesador de cuádruple núcleo Intel Core 2 Extrem con 13333MHz FSB, con una placa base nVidia nForce 780 SLI ofrece compatibilidad con las últimas tarjetas del típo G9600GT, con compatibilidad con dos tarjetas gráficas G9800GTX o G9800GX2.

La carcasa dispone de una trampilla frontal inferior para extraer sus cuatro discos duros Serial ATA de 3Gb/s. Todo una maravilla, tal vez en un tiempo no muy lejano, postee alguna foto de mi nuevo pc ;P.

Si algun@ de vosotr@s lo teneís; No dudeis en enviar las fotos!

Looking around www.nvidia.com I came across with, which seems to be one of the best video cards ever made.

With two on-board GPUs, a GeForce® 9800 GX2-based graphics solution is bar-none the fastest graphics card available, and when paired with a 7 Series NVIDIA nForce® motherboard, creates the latest in a line of powerful NVIDIA gaming platforms. Be blown away by scorching frame rates, true-to-life extreme HD gaming, and picture-perfect Blu-ray and HD DVD movies.

Lightning speed graphics performance The dual-GPU engine has 256 screaming fast stream processors and a 1GB framebuffer, allowing it to perform 30 to 50% faster across games than the previous performance leading GeForce 8800 Ultra GPU.

Picture-Perfect HD Extreme HD game play, unsurpassed movie picture quality, and elegant design are at your fingertips with the GeForce 9800 GX2-based graphics card. Now you can be right in the middle of the action – whether you’re fragging the enemy or watching an HD movie, your experience will be ultra-realistic.

Features to up the ante An ESA-enabled control panel provides a state-of-the-art interface for performance tuning and monitoring of your graphics card. Plus, HybridPower™ technology gives you optimal power savings by letting you switch from your GeForce 9800 GX2-based GPU to your motherboard GPU for everyday computing.

Probably the most anticipated

NVIDIA today unveiled what it now calls its fastest single-slot video card. The GeForce 9800 GX2 is the company’s second card to combine dual chipsets and merges two 9800-series chipsets into a single design that is said to be faster than two GeForce 9600 GT cards. While clocked lower at 600MHz versus the 650MHz of the less expensive card, the much larger 512-bit memory interface and 2GHz effective video memory help edge out most two-card solutions.

As part of the 9 series, the GX2 also inherits the other benefits of the lineup, including full HD video decoding in hardware, PCI Express 2.0 support, and support for quad SLI by using a second GX2 for a total of four video chipsets in a single system. The added performance requires extra power and should see at least a 580-watt power supply for a single card and a full 850 watts for a system with two of the cards installed.

Video cards are to be available today from ASUS, BFG, and several other high-profile manufacturers with an estimated price of $600. Most will include two dual-link DVI outputs as well as an HDMI output with a separate SPDIF output for routing surround sound as well as graphics to a home theater system.

…actually Japanese.

1. Honda Civic GX
2. Toyota Prius
3. Honda Civic Hybrid
4. Smart ForTwo
5. Toyota Yaris
6. Nissan Altima Hybrid
7. Toyota Corolla
8. Mini Cooper / Clubman
9. Ford Focus
10. Toyota Camry Hybrid
11. Honda Civic
12. Honda Fit

And the Mini got lost, the Smart was tucked in someone’s pocket and was left at JFK, and the Ford is just a damn copycat, showing up and doing what everyone else does (yep, it ain’t getting off the hook so easily)

You will without a doubt have noticed that the top green car is not a Prius (which is the only green car I can think of). Actually I really can’t call them cars. First of all, if it can’t go above 60mph (100kph) it’s not a car. And I’ve got proof, look at the picture of the Civic GX2 below; THAT is not a car. It’s something from outer space.

Which is what all “green” cars look like. Why can’t they make it prettier? Lexus did a damn fine job.

Aunque no estan confirmadas aun por nvidia en expreview han desvelado las posibles especificaciones de la nueva bestia gráfica de Nvidia:

-256 stream processors(128 por gpu)

-600Mhz de core y 1500 de shader

-1gb de memoria a 1000Mhz, con un  bus de 512 bits(256 por gpu)

-Ancho de banda de 128 GB/segundo

Pinta bien , ahora  solo haría falta que el precio acompañara, claro.

Porfin vemos las primeras imagenes de la nueva bestia grafica de Nvidia, de doble PCB , un giga de memoria de video, 512 por GPU, y 128 Stream procesors.Tendra dos DVI y un conector HDMI, y se dice que sera un 30% mas potente que la 8800 ultra.

Todo gracias a Tom’s hardware
