GTX 280/260 Specs

[Fishman550]

nice one anubis, seems to be going good, although i'm not too keen on that gpu speed, gonna have to get that to 700+

 

[Evilsizer]

interesting, 512bit with GDDR3, well its cheaper ram then GDDR5. they are able to get the same bandwidth if not more with GDDR3/512bit setup. though it would really sing with GDDR5/512bit, but costly.

 

[Anubis_386]

Very very costly .. I'm already going to have to sell a kidney to get a Tri-SLI GTX 280 setup .. lol ..

 

[Fishman550]

hows this fellow got one btw?

he work for nVidia or did it "fall off the back of a truck" so to speak.

I think its a screenshot from a machine running at Computex ..

neither of the above.. he doesnt have one and is prolly a sneak peak to a select few reveiwers at comdex or was it ces, i keep forgetting the names.

nice mem bandwidth. very nice.

it will make gaming at high res with AA nice on the eyes...

i can't wait for crysis benchmarks.... oh boy!

 

[ratbuddy]

Heh except for the slightly fewer (but supposedly more efficient) SPs it looks pretty much like a GX2-on-a-chip, although it's gonna no doubt be faster at really high resolutions thanks to the 1GB@512bit.

 

[Fishman550]

gonna be buying one just after launch i hope hello better looking crysis then another shortly after, hello Crysis Very High 1900x1200 (fingers crossed)

 

[joesaiditstrue]

i don't see this card being the card that makes crysis run, all of the sudden, like butter

just call it a hunch, i don't have any inside info or anything, just my personal feelings, i see it performing a tad bit faster than a GX2 but not much, definitely not 60fps at very high @ 1440x900 or higher resolutions

 

[Fishman550]

have faith young padawan.

 

[nightelph]

We'll see, won't we? Have to wait for benchies.

 

[Fishman550]

yarr, hopefully they'll be out soon.

 

[Shiggity]

Man those new shaders are crazy. The pixel fillrate is only 8 more GPixel/s, but the Texture fillrate is quadruple my 8800GT.

750c / 1250m / 1800s should be no prob when overclocked / volt modded

 

[Fishman550]

ya. if its stock at

602/2214/1296 with a decent fan speed should be able to get it high; i run mine at 60% and i can't hear it, cos i've always got gunfire/music/video playing.

Though even when nothing is i can't hear it much, especially not over my typing into here lol.

But with those stock clock speeds, we should easily reach 800+/2400+/2000+

Hell, with my 8800GTS 512mb I've got

800/1950/2332

so this beast should be able to at least match them.

EDIT:

Hmm, i've just been looking in GPU-Z and my Texture Fillrate is higher than that...? Mind you only by 3G/Texels, but still, what gives?

 

[ChinStrap]

you shuld compare your cards clock for clock to see how it turns out.

not overclocked g92 vs. stock g200

lookin' forward to it mr. bencher

 

[Fishman550]

my card; 8800GTS 512mb.

Not Overclocked

Overclocked

GTX-280 According to the image posted by Anubis.

GTX-280 Stock

 

[Shiggity]

Nah what chinstrap was saying is how much a GT200 core would beat a G92 core when they are at the same speed.

The question is how much.

Just like a 3.0GHz Nehalem CPU is going to beat a 3.0GHz C2Q by 30-40%

 

[Fishman550]

ahh right, fair enough, should i clock mine to the same?

see what happens?

update:

Mine at the same clocks as the 280 in that screen. i got destroyed
