Possible Nv40 Price Points?

[Skillian]

Look, I just want to chat about the new graphics cards. If you want to flame me do it in PM or another topic.

Once again its the inquirer, who generally tend to be right by covering all their bases just in case.

"Its going to be 16 pipelines"

"Its goiing to be only 8 pipelines"

"Its going to be 12 pipelines"

"32 pipelines!!!!!!"


After all, one of them must be right .


However on this issue I hope they are correct. I would like to see the cost of graphics cards drop from a consumer perspective.

Ok...so there will be the N40 then the N45 and N48 which will be the PCI express versions?

I thought the 12000 in 3dmark03 was with pci express...I guess not though lol.

How much of a diff in 3d mark do you think pci express will have?

2 molex conectors...holy crap...it needs alot of power..

In terms of 3d mark, I'd be surprised if it showed a big increase.

Lol, yeah that's true - they're more of a rumour mill than a news site.

my guess is that in the near future the cards still wont have enough horse power to use teh full extent of pci express&#39;s bandwith, but atleast that bandwith will be there in teh future for the higher horsepower cards. Plus for now atleast the actual card will be the lbottleneck, rather than the socket...
