XDR2???

:shock: Look at that TDP!

EDIT: After reading, it looks like that rambus is the difference maker.

One other thing I found interesting was the second slide about the new architecture, "Support x86 virtual memory" It'll be interesting to see how this plays with software and current (and future) compatability/commands in a C++ environment.
 
I thought this was interesting except:

Charlie Demerjian from SemiAccurate said:
"Let me be blunt here, THERE IS NO XDR2 IN SI/HD7000/GCN. Trust me on this, the spec list floating is complete bull, and you can tell by who is re-posting it and who is not. Some people know, and they are being VERY quiet on the subject.
This is not meant to knock XDR2 and/or Rambus, it is just a statement about what is in and what is not in the next GPU."

I'd be really surprised if they spent the last few years working on GDDR5 to switch over to Rambus.
