a.. Produced using 0.13 micron technology at TSMC or IBM;
b.. Employs 175 million of transistors;
c.. Core-clock: 500 to 600MHz;
d.. DDR, GDDR2, GDDR3 memory controller;
e.. 8 rendering pipelines with 2 TMUs per each and ability to work in 16
Z/Stencil per clock mode;
f.. Pixel and Vertex Shaders 3.0;
g.. DirectX 9.0 and OpenGL support;
h.. Improved FSAA patterns;
i.. Improved anisotropic filtering patterns, added 16x anisotropic
filtering mode;
j.. AGP 8x;
I cant wait to get my hands on one of these and a copy of doom 3.

xbits lab... mmm

Well untill I see an NV40 in the shops I know sure that nobody can
confirm what precisly it will be!

We all seen where "reliable resources" lead to, The Inquirer quality!

So untill it is in the shops... nobody can be sure! Well those guys at
nvidia can be sure but we know how they love to cover up the
weaknesses in their chipset with expensive words like "128bits cinefx
engine" ...yeah on a 64-bits memory but ya mean.
