| Asus GeForce 8800 GTX Graphics Card Spec |
| Saturday, 28 October 2006 05:57 |
 The details of the highly anticipated next generation Asus EN8800GTX graphics card have appeared online revealing Nvidia's upcoming GeForce 8800 GTX chip spec for the G80. DirectX 10 Shader Model 4.0 support and Nvidia's Quantum Effects Technology are all supported. The card's 8800 GTX chip is clocked to 575MHz and the 768MB of GDDR 3 memory runs at 900MHz - 1.8GHz effective - confirming previous speculation about the 8800 GTX cards. The memory connects across a 384-bit bus. The board has s-video output and a pair of dual-link DVI ports. There's no HDMI port, but the board is HDCP compliant, the report claims. As expected the 8800 GTX GPU is based on a unified shader archicture. It incorporates what Nvidia will apparently call its GigaThread technology, suggesting numerous pixel processing pipelines. The Asus EN8800 GTX is a two-slot card that requires a pair of power feeds - two PCI-express connectors, according to information posted on Chinese-language website MyChat. SLI configurations are going to demand a power supply with a total of four pci express connectors and huge wattage requirements. We anticipate anybody going down the SLI router will need at least a 850w PSU and preferably a 1KW solution. The enermax 1KW Galaxy power supply looks a sensible solution for those with more money than sense! The site suggests the 768MB board will retail for around $540, with a 640MB versio, the EN8800GTS coming in at $410 although information was quickly removed no doubt due to the NDA disclosure agreements in place. There's no indication of availability, but Nvidia is expected to announce its G80 chip mid-November. We hope to be reviewing the Asus EN8800 GTX very soon, so stay tuned.
