NV41 to replace 6800 standard
 

NVIDIA'S NV41 WON'T be any kind of boom chip but will have just one goal. To be cheaper then NV40, Geforce 6800 non Ultra or standard, as the graphics chip firm dubs it.

It seems that Nvidia 222 millions of transistor chip clocked at 325MHz is expensive to produce and it's, in theory at least, similar to all NV40s with four pipelines disabled. That makes its pipeline number fall from sixteen to twelve.
