GT300 to feature 512-bit interface

May 17th, 2009 No Comments   Posted in GPUs

Over the past six months, we heard many rumors about the upcoming nVidia GT300 GPU. The last information surfaced on the web reveals that GT300 might feature a 512bit wide GDDR5 memory interface. If this is true, this would mean that nVidia has a playing field of eight 32bit memory controllers connecting to multiple 32 core clusters for a total of 512 cores. If the GT300 chip ends up connected to quad data rate memory at 1000MHz we'll have a memory bandwidth of 256GB/s per single GPU. More »

GT2xx generation cards' life cycle is not over yet, the GT206 will be released in Q4 2008, presumably to cash in on the christmas shopping season. GT206, the last 55 nm cards, seems to be having problems with its shader domain, which has pushed its launch for that late. Following GT206, GT212 and GT216 would be Nvidia's entries to the 40nm silicon fabrication process, both will support GDDR5 memory on a broad memory bus. GT212 will be released in Q1 2009, GT216 in Q2 2009. More »
