nVidia releases another MONSTER!?

Post by Lawndart » Wed Jun 18, 2008 2:12 pm

nVidia Press Release:
Graphics Evolves Beyond Gaming With New NVIDIA Geforce GTX 200 GPUs

Excerpts: ..."Delivers 50% more gaming performance over the Company’s previous NVIDIA GeForce 8800 Ultra GPU through 240 enhanced processor cores that provide incredible shading horsepower at resolutions as high as 2560 x 1600."

“I haven't been this excited about a new gaming technology in years,” said Chris Taylor, CEO and founder of Gas Powered Games. “We're focusing all of our physics efforts on PhysX, and it already delivers the kinds of advanced effects in Space Siege that takes the whole experience to the next level. And in the near-future, you're going to see real-time, Hollywood cinematic-level environmental effects on GPUs like the GeForce GTX 280. We're talking about some wicked-cool technology here!”
