NV48 is NV45 with 512MB RAM
 
DESPITE EARLIER claims, Nvidia will introduce one more card codenamed NV48. It won't be an exciting part of the phenomenon hardware thang, as Nvidia will use NV45 chips and will plug 512 MB of memory at the card. Actually, this time NV48 is the codename for graphic card more than it is for the chip. Clocks will remain the same it will be the same card clocked to 400 MHz core and 1100 MHz memory as it is with NV45, Geforce 6800 Ultra card.
If you remember, and bear with us, dear reader, NV45 is NV40 with BR2 bridge so NV48 is bridge of the bridged card, it sure isn't a native. We could say or describe it as an update of an updated marchitecture. But we won't do that. Oops! We just did.

NV48 will keep the Geforce 6800 series name and if we talk about the NV48 Ultra we will end up with 6800 Ultra 512 MB card. Gainward already announced such a card and it hopes to demo it at the soon to be upcoming CeBIT, or hangover as my dad says.

We are easily sailing towards the new memory graphic wars. Do we actually need 512MB of memory? You don’t want me to answer that question. So all I will say is, give the piece a chance. µ
