D12U will be first Nvidia GPU with GDDR5 support

Nvidia hasn’t even launched its D10U product yet and we’re already starting to hear whispers about the company’s next-next-next generation graphics products.

Several memory manufacturers have confirmed that the first Nvidia GPU to feature support for GDDR5 memory will be the D12U part, which is said to be currently scheduled for a late 2009 launch.

Obviously, D12U probably hasn’t even left the drawing board yet, but it’s clear that Nvidia is already in discussions with memory manufacturers about the supply of high-speed GDDR5 memory. We already know that ATI’s next-generation graphics cards support GDDR5, and we’re likely to see the new memory technology used on the RV770XT-based products.
