About the power load, I told you

But, hey, paying up to 600 bucks just to have the most powerful card isn't what I'm ready to do... And I want to see the answer of ATI... :grin:

I'm drooling all over the place here, can't wait to get my hands on one

any news on the ATI-front ?

Comment from jmke @ 2004/04/14

the NV40 seems to be a monster!
12xxx 3DMark2003 is real!

The system we used consists of a Pentium 4 3.2GHz EE processor, EpoX’ 4PCA3+ i875P chipset motherboard, 1GB of Crucial DDR400 memory and two Western Digital WD740GD Raptors in raid0.

Comment from Sidney @ 2004/04/14

socket 775 / motherboard out in China. I read an article two weeks ago in Chinese. Board makers are reluctant; due to pins onboard rather than on CPU ..... warranty issues... pins are surface mounted meaning no easy way to replace just the socket.

Looks like someone has leaked [H]ardOCP's benchies for their Nvidia GeForce 6800 Ultra review and it's not looking to good for Nvidia if these score's a right?

check the settings of the NV40 in each bench, it has FSAA enabled versus disabled on the other cards and puts out the same amount of FPS!

Btw, these two molex connectors don't mean it suck 2 times more juice then the previous generation... It's normally used to enhance the stability of the current the card needs...

But, I think the new CPUs drain too much... Especially the Intel ones...

At least NVIDIA recommends testers to use 480W and over power supplies. By the way, GeForce 6800 Ultra reference cards will occupy two standard slots. However, it's not obligatory for all vendors, so we might see single-slot models as well.

If that's true ... I need some more power :/

yes we've seen 775 mobo @ Cebit with DDR1
and socket 478 with DDR2

Comment from 187(V)URD@ @ 2004/04/13

Finally replacing my old gf4ti4200 into a brand new card

Comment from jmke @ 2004/04/13

today is the day!

Comment from jmke @ 2004/04/12

something like that I guess

Comment from piotke @ 2004/04/12

any idea what that would mean ?

core speed lower then and higher then ?

One molex or two molex connectors? The speculation and pictures aren't making it any more clear.

KOREAN WEB SITE Dark Crow is saying that when Nvidia launches its NV40 tech this week, it will charge $399 for the 6800 Ultra and $299 for the non Ultra.

But that sound pretty resonable.

heres one with a sticker on it

Comment from Tum0r @ 2004/04/12

Makes me wich hardware would get more efficient.

Comment from jmke @ 2004/04/12

single core, more power. TheInq states ~450Watt PSU for a system with one of these beasts inside

Dual power connector =? Dual Core ?
