Nvidia on the path of war? According to the site Expreview, the firm would be the chameleon putting the finishing touches to his future offensive in terms of graphics cards. At the program is the arrival of the first processors GT200 engraved in 55 nanometers, which should reduce their power consumption while promoting their increasing frequency, and the first mention of a supposed GTX 295, which would be other than a graphics card that combines two GT200!
Expreview reveals what would be the first photo of a GT 200 engraved in 55 nm chips to be identified by the words "G200-103-B2", as opposed to GT 200 recorded in 65 nm, which are stamped on them "A2". Production would have started in week 33 (11 to 17 August), which suggests that Nvidia has left time to build stocks before the commercial launch of the first cards advantage of this revision of the GT 200. The launch is scheduled for next January.

Nvidia, which for the moment did not give his GT200 in dual-GPU cards would also intends to remedy this situation soon, which would allow it to return to the race deal with Radeon HD 4870X2 its competitor AMD. While Nvidia uses the extension "GX2" to describe his cards to two hearts graphics, the manufacturer has here decided to abandon its usual nomenclature - which would have given birth to a GeForce GTX 260 GX2 - to a new reference The GTX 295.
This map therefore two meet GT200 engraved in 55 nanometers, each of which is equipped with 216 processing units, a design that could be composed of two separate PCBs. For now, information or rumor does have an idea of the possible launch date, but he whispers that the test phase is already well advanced.
