Picture of the day: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 380 SLI
ASUS ROG motherboard, special cooling and housing, plenty of memory modules… Who cares when all two GF100-based GeForce 380 monitors us connected to SLI? Even Tom Petersen smiles…
NVIDIA seems to be doing well, or at least satisfactorily, in making the final, i.e., marketable, version of the GF100 (Fermi) GPU. The two new images that have been leaked suggest at least this, in which Tom Petersen, technical marketing director at NVIDIA, is holding a housing-mounted configuration in which two unknown-looking GeForce models are resting tied to SLI. The close-up photo shows the details relatively well, and in the distance, Tom also releases a solid smile, which is definitely a good sign.
The type of cards is not specified, so it can only be assumed that these are GeForce GTX 360 or GeForce GTX 380 models, however, the suspicion of the latter is much more substantiated. If all goes wrong, the 2010 top-of-the-line GeForce - featuring no less than 3 billion transistors and 512 CUDA shades - is getting closer to appearing, and as things explode, we’ll get plenty of open-ended questions for the future and in terms of power relations.
The image can be enlarged!
So we continue to encourage NVIDIA sympathizers (and of course the impartial ones as well) to be patient, it is not so far from the moment of birth. On the other hand, to the question of whether Fermi will indeed be a messiah or just a false prophet, very few people can know the real answer, and we are unfortunately not among them yet.
