NVIDIA GK104 renewed speculation: 32 million transistors $ 399-NVIDIA, GK104, rumors, specifications
Morning, the just-concluded NVIDIA CES keynote CEO Jen-Hsun Huang did not disclose on GeForce / Quadro / Tesla-related news. But it's not naturally there are other official sources, the Czech Republic today has released an OBR next generation NVIDIA core-side main GK104 Kepler detailed specifications chart.
As a fact, GeForce GTX 560 Ti's successor, GK104 integrating 3.2 billion transistors, design performance than the GeForce GTX 580 by about 10% -15%, depending on the frequency difference in AMD Tahiti or between family Radeon HD 7950/7970 and Radeon HD 7970 quite. Said to control power consumption is also good, the core can easily over the same frequency on 1100MHz. Pricing and GeForce GTX 570 is the equivalent of $ 399. Specifications described in the following figure, we can see that the previously reported core / Shader frequency of unity has been confirmed from multiple sources:
But on this memory controller is still in doubt, PCINLIFE administrator cho in the Radeon HD 7970 evaluation data should be implied 256bit. If you use 256bit memory controller, then NVIDIA is bound to push the memory frequency to 5.5GHz and AMD like to get around the memory bandwidth and reliable manner as not to become a bottleneck.
