Nvidia's NV43 is Geforce 6600

Post by Apoptosis »

The Inq gives the low down on the next upcoming nvidia card. Rumor also has it that the card will be on hand in two days at Quakecon.. So I'll snap some photos of it for you all.
The NV43 will be known as the Geforce 6600 from now on. There will be two versions - a 6600 standard and a 6600GT with a huge difference in clock speed. <> 6600 standard will be clocked at 300MHz+ and will use DDR/DDR2 memory while the 6600GT will be clocked close to 500MHz core and will use almost that fast memory, GDDR3.

It's an eight pipeline part like we suggested before and will be available in volume production in late September.

Just a few days now until this card appears and I was previously told that NV43, 6600 – not Nokia, Geforce will be able to use SLI mode. For $199.
