Well since the AMD thread has run it's course since it actually exists now...

For the big daddy card...

Same size die as last gen, possibly another 300W space heater monster, geared towards HPC, not gamers. Oh, and late Q3 availability. 384bit memory controller, so we're looking at cards with 1.5GB/3GB memory.

Baseless FUD (for now)

Well, since world+dog is now running with it, including toms (barf!)...

It could be legit, it could be way outta whack. It's not looking good if these numbers are to be believed...

My 2 cents, these numbers are close, I'm just not totally sure of the memory bus width and onboard memories... :P

So apparently "engineering samples" have been out and about for a couple weeks. NV is going to show kepler off at a PAX-type (PDXLAN) show like the Fermi was a few years ago today (Friday)...

OMG Woodscrews 2.0!

Apparently NV only demoed the new Borderlands game at PDXLAN, nothing at all remotely to do with a video card. JSH can't pull the same trick twice, I guess.

Some more juicy tidbits:

Sooo, NV apparently wins on pretty much every comparison under the sun...Good! Prices to fall, news at 11, see ya in August :P

Practical function open: new antialiasing technology TXAA

In addition to the graphics performance, NVIDIA also for the needs of gamers, add a number of new and useful features for a new generation of the GeForce GTX 680, released a new anti-aliasing technology TXAA, a new generation of hardware rendering anti-aliasing technology, actually belongs to the old MSAA's enhanced version provides better anti-aliasing I can reduce the open antialiasing fluency decline, for the time being belonging to the GeForce GTX 680 unique anti-aliasing, but NVIDIA said that the above will be open at a later time to the GeForce GTX 500 or Model.

TXAA temporarily can be divided into two levels: TXAA 1 and TXAA, the former costs only 2x the MSAA similar, but the MSAA is better than the 8x anti-aliasing; As for TXAA 2 effect is more outstanding, but the cost only similar with 4x MSAA. TXAA game itself support to be open to use, support TXAA variety of games will be held during the year stage, although present, failed to test its real performance, but based on the NVIDIA official photos can be seen, antialiasing does, it is worth looking forward to.

In addition to the new TXAA Antialiasing, NVIDIA is also an existing graphics card users to bring good news, the introduction of the original few games before the corresponding FXAA to the NVIDIA Control Panel, users can easily turn the feature on. lead to better anti-aliasing for different games, and enhance the quality of the game screen.

New Adaptive VSync technology

NVIDIA, on the other hand, made ​​for the actual operation of fluency of the game is optimized and to promote the new Adaptive VSync VSync setting are gamers, open the main purpose is to reduce the graphics card output image is generated in different fps too fast or too slow situations, and the output frame rate is locked in with the mainstream display screen 60fps. However, the image of the actual output of the graphics card will still be due to different scenes within the game for differences between the actual output fps lower than 60fps fps, will be directly reduced to 30 below 30fps is reduced to 20fps.

In fact, such cases are quite common, and convert 60fps to 30fps of the screen will significantly slow the beating, which greatly affect the fluency of the game, the new Adaptive VSync just solve the problem, when the Adaptive VSync enabled, the system automatically detection of the actual operation fps than 60 VSync will open a locked 60fps output frames, such as less than 60 will be automatically VSync turn off and running to the actual output frames to reduce all of a sudden dropped to 30fps from 60fps is the emergence of slow beat, can be very useful.

Nice! Looks like NVidia has a winner on their hands. This can only be a good thing for the end user and hopefully we'll see some price wars!
