Computex 2008: GeForce GTX 280 pics and specs!

VR-Zone has several pictures of the GTX 280 for your viewing pleasure, including a GPU-Z screenshot. Don't forget to check out this article either.

Thanks to that GPU-Z screenshot, I was able to add the GT200 chip and the GeForce GTX 280 and GeForce GTX 260 to our database. So now that we have the GTX 280 in da house you guys can do cuhrazy things like, comparing it to the 9800 GTX.

In related news, Hexus found some placeholders at Gigabyte's booth that reveal some tasty tidbits about the Radeon HD 3950, Radeon HD 4850, GTX 280 and GTX 260. If the HD 3950 is supposed to be an improvement over the HD 3850, the 3950 must have much higher core and memory clocks, because it still has (only) 512MB of 256bit GDDR3. In the magical realm of the GTX 260, we see that there is 896MB of 448bit GDDR3 for as far as the eye can see!

hmmm , 624 GFLOPS ?!! thats too low compared to what was expected !!

Nvidia was aiming to get a teraFLOPS or close to it at least !

but i am waiting for the benchmarks anyway :)

looks like GTX280 performance will be similar to 9800GX2 beside the AA will be a lot smooth due to 512bit bandwidth and 1G DDR3.
now I am looking toward to R770 chip... cheap and good XD...

i just found this quote:

"Just wait until June 17th when the GTX 200 series of GPU's launch, and you'll start asking yourself when you last witnessed such a dramatic technology improvement. If you thought the GeForce 8 series blew the 7-series out of the water, this is going to leave you in shock."

that sounds pretty promising.
