nVIDIA Fermi

[audiofreak]

Charlie se konacno nakanio da napise nesto konkretno na ovu temu. U pitanju su njegove spekulacije u vezi izlaska tako da to treba primiti sa gramom soli ali opet, cesto je bio u pravu do sada.

NVIDIJA je obecala svojim AIB partnerima da ce imati GT300 cipove sredinom oktobra meseca.

Pod pretpostavkom da se tape-out zaista desi u junu (i to 1. juna), prvi A0 silicijum za testiranje bice spreman osam nedelja kasnije (dakle 1. avgust). Samo testiranje traje dve nedelje i ako nema ozbiljnih bugova proizvodnja moze da pocne 15. avgusta. Proizvodnja traje 10-12 nedelja, a 10 nedelja od wafera je vec 1. novembar. Ako se uracuna vreme da se naprave stampane ploce, sastave kartice i posalju u radnju to je sredina novembra, a ne oktobra.

Naravno to je sve pod pretpostavkom da je A0 silicijum skroz ok i da ne mora da se radi respin jer inace datum izlaska GT300 ode u januar 2010.

A u ostalim vestima, NVIDIJA pocinje da se bavi farmacijom

DirectX 11


ATI should finalize the development of „RV870“ 40nm DirectX 11 chip at some point in August. This is what our usually well informed sources have confirmed. We are talking about the cards and chips should already be taped out a while ago.

The real launch and mass production should happen in very late Q3, probably in late September, and real availability is expected in October.

From this point, it looks like that ATI might have a month or two head start, as Nvidia's „GT300“ should show its face in very late Q4 2009. All in all, it will be very interesting Q4 but this also denotes that most of July and at least half of August will be rather graphically boring.

A evo i prevedene sa http://www.itx.ba/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=10709&Itemid=1

ATI bi trebao finalizirati rad na „RV870“ 40nm DirectX 11 čipu nekada u augustu. To su nam potvrdili naši dobro informisani izvori. Govorimo o karticama, a čipovi bi trebali biti spremni već neko vrijeme.

Predstavljanje i masovna proizvodnja bi se trebali desiti krajem ovog kvartala, vjerovatno u septembru, dok bi veće količine proizvoda trebale biti dostupne u oktobru.

Sada nam se čini da bi ATI mogao imati prednost od dva mjeseca, jer Nvidijin „GT300“ na tržište treba doći krajem četvrtog kvartala. Sve u svemu, to će biti veoma interesantan četvrti kvartal, ali će i većina jula i jedan dio augusta biti strašno dosadni.

 

[mINUS]

znaci ne vredi cekanja, bolje uzeti neku 4850 ili 4770 ili eventualno neku 9800gtx+ do nove smene grafickih cipova...

 

[audiofreak]

U neku ruku, isplati se cekati septembar -- ionako nesto bas i nema igara koje tekuce high-end kartice ne mogu da poteraju.

S druge strane, prve DX11 karte mogu vrlo lako biti poslovicni macici koji se u vodu bacaju. tako da... onaj 4890 sa 1GB mi izgleda sve primamljivije.

TSMC Update.

http://www.reuters.com/article/marketsNews/idUSTP24125020090710

Deutsche Bank expects TSMC to ship more graphics chips using new 40 nanometre technology to Nvidia (NVDA.O) and AMD (AMD.N) in the third quarter, dismissing recent market fears that TSMC might delay its migration to the advanced process technology. The bank expects TSMC to further expand its share in the global foundry market, while second-tier rivals have limited research and development spending.

Jos da su rekli o kojim proizvodima se radi, DX10.1 ili DX11. Vjerovatno DX11?

nVidia plans GT300 demos for late September.

http://www.brightsideofnews.com/news/2009/8/28/nvidia-plans-gt300-demos-for-late-september.aspx

After hearing from multiple sources spanning on several continents, we can be fairly certain that the samples of nVidia's first DirectX 11 GPU are going to depart from engineering labs. Just like GT200, GT300 spent several months in the Labs while the drivers were being created.

Given that today's GeForce drivers contain more code than Windows XP core, we aren't surprised that nVidia is taking time to get the product ready for market. Just like some media were suggesting that GT200 taped out in March 2008 [while some developers got the GT200 cards as early as three months before that tape out story], GT300 needs time [and human resources] to finish the development. GT300 is the base graphics architecture not just for the standard desktop or notebook graphics, but also as a future graphics base for the Tegra generation of products. And with recent rumors of nVidia implementing ECC feature into the GPU [which is a given, since GDDR5 comes with ECC], Tesla parts should be quite interesting as well.

But now, we have received words that AIBs are getting time frames forthe demonstrations to their own partners and press, with the firstevents happening in September. The dates are obviously planned to bluntthe katana-sharp market attack from ATI's Radeon 5000 series.

On nVidia's annual gathering of add-in-board manufacturers [happened a while ago], a lot of harsh words were spoken due to renaming policies, OEM positioning and more importantly, how to combat resurgent ATI - it was stated that a lot is expected from the NV70 e.g. GT300 generation.

Now, the only question is how long it will take for nVidia's demo team and software vendors to create traditional launch demos. ATI dropped the practice with the Radeon 4000 series, showing raytraced Ruby in its Cinema 2.0 event, but the demo didn't became available to general public. All in all, computer graphics arena is never boring.

OFFICIAL: NVIDIA says GT300 on schedule for Q4 2009, yields are fine.

http://www.brightsideofnews.com/news/2009/9/25/nvidia-says-gt300-on-schedule-for-q4-20092c-yields-are-fine.aspx

November is looking to be an exciting month as we hear rumblings of a launch of AMD's Radeon HD 5850 X2 and HD 5870 X2. In fact almost all of the news lately has been about AMD's new DX11 40nm GPU. The question on everyone's minds was the same - Where is NVIDIA?

We are happy to report that we were correct in our earlier predictions that the GT300 is farther along than many other sites were predicting. We hear that NVIDIA has made an official statement on the state of the GT300 yields.

It seems that the GT300 has been taped out long ago and that yields are fine. This statement comes from a senior product manager for the GT300, but we also have this from our own sources [who have been saying this all along].

So where did the rumors of sub 2% yields come from? Well according to the unnamed source it looks like AMD's Competitive Analysis team mistranslated some information that stated only 9 chips per wafer worked. This information quickly spread around the internet and became what we like to call "the repeated truth". Bear in mind that this was the same team in charge of spreading rumors that Larrabee is now in its third or fourth generation of silicon, which is direly incorrect. But we'll address Larrabee and the turmoil there in a future article.

Our sources [and the senior managers] are still saying that the GT300 is slated for a Q4 2009 launch. This means that you should expect the new GT300 to show up around the end of November. This is most likely a follow up to Editor's Day that should happen at the beginning of November. Most likely nVidia is pitching the GT300 chip exactly three years after its revolutionary G80 [also known as NV50] architecture, pitching it right around Thanksgiving, however from what we are hearing it is looking more like the very end of November or early December.

Still with this news it does take a little notch out of the AMD announcement. We are sure that NVIDIA will be making more information public as the momentum grows around AMD’s new 5xxx series GPUs. After all nothing works better to kill potential sales than leaked information on a possibly better product. Since we already disclosed some GT300 performance figures, expect an interesting war of words.

We all will have to wait to see if the GT300 can outperform the HD 5870, HD 5850X2 and the HD 5870X2 but as the current HD5870's margin is not that big we might see an interesting upset. No matter what the outcome the GPU race is certainly going to be very interesting in the coming months.

GT300 is codenamed Fermi
Written by Fuad Abazovic
Monday, 28 September 2009 09:46



Named after a nuclear reactor


The chip that we ended up calling GT300 has internal codename Fermi. The name might suit it well as Enrico Fermi was the chap that came up with the first nuclear reactor.

The new Nvidia chip is taped out and running, and we know that Nvidia showed it to some important people. The chip should be ready for very late 2009 launch. This GPU will also heavily concentrate on parallel computing and it will have bit elements on chip adjusted for this task. Nvidia plans to earn a lot of money because of that.

The chip supports GDDR5 memory, has billions of transistors and it should be bigger and faster than Radeon HD 5870. The GX2 dual version of card is also in the pipes. It's well worth noting that this is the biggest architectural change since G80 times as Nvidia wanted to add a lot of instructions for better parallel computing.

The gaming part is also going to be fast but we won’t know who will end up faster in DirectX 11 games until we see the games. The clocks will be similar or very close to one we've seen at ATI's DirectX 11 card for both GPU and memory but we still don't know enough about shader count and internal structure to draw any performance conclusions.


Of course, the chip supports DirectX 11 and Open GL 3.1
