PCper NVIDIA GT200 Revealed – GeForce GTX 280 and GTX 260 Review

NVIDIA GT200 Architecture

Introduction

It’s been a long time coming – despite NVIDIA’s assurances that G92 was more than just a die shrink of the well accepted G80 architecture we knew better. G92 was, and continues to be, a great GPU for your dollar but we are hungry for something new, something that would really push gaming into the next generation.  As it turns out both NVIDIA and AMD have something planned for the month of June but NVIDIA’s new GT200 GPU is the first up to bat.  NVIDIA GeForce GTX 200 series of graphics cards based on this design are incredibly powerful and incredibly expensive.  Be prepared to be impressed.
