ATI's dual RV670 to beat Geforce 8800 Ultra, but only in 2008

@ 2007/07/13
ATI's only hope is to put two RV670 cards together and such a dual chip card should be able to take the performance crown out of Nvidia's G80 Ultra. The biggest trouble is that at the time RV670 comes to reality Nvidia is suppose to have the next generation card ready that someone called G92. <br><br>

RV670 made for 65 nanometre, but the beauty of half node process such as 80 or currently most interesting 55 nanometre process is that it is not that hard to convert the original chip and prepare it for the smaller so called half node process. This is exactly what will happen to RV670. Our sources confirmed that the original design of the chip was suppose to end up at 65 nanometre but the final version of the chip will be out as a 55 nanometre. The chip will draw less power and will be physically smaller.
