Here is the Geforce GTX 570

NVIDIA launched its little sister GTX 580 today.

NVIDIA today officially unveiled the Geforce GTX 570 video card, which is virtually a slightly truncated GTX 580. Of the 110 CUDA cores in the GF512 graphics processor, 32 were deactivated by disabling one streaming multiprocessor array. The number of texturing units was changed from 64 to 60, while the number of ROP units was changed from 48 (12 blocks) to 40 (10 blocks), and the width of the crossbar memory controller was reduced from 384 bits to 320 bits. The clocks didn't float either, as the 580 / 772 / 1.544 MHz clocks learned with the GTX 4.008 changed to 732 / 1.464 / 3.800 MHz. These steps allow this product to consume less energy in the midst of calculations. Two of the GDDR5 memory chips were saved, bringing the memory capacity to 1536 MB instead of 1280 MB.

The GF110 GPU is, of course, still made on TSMC's 40nm production lines, and its size has not changed, which is 520 mm2 and will idle from 732 MHz to 51 MHz, with CUDA cores then at 1.464 MHz 101 They brake to MHz. The GTX 570 has a memory bandwidth of 152 GB / s, while its theoretical maximum power consumption is 225 watts. Of the graphical APIs, DirectX 11 and OpenGL 4.1 are fully supported. The 26,7 cm long and 11,1 cm high card requires two 6-pin PCI-E cables for trouble-free operation. Of the video outputs, two Dual-Link DVI and one mini-HDMI were on the back panel. The novelty, blessed with dual-slot cooling, of course, also supports NVIDIA 3D Vision technology.

Detailed demonstrations and tests became available on the Internet, as is customary at the time, after the NDA expired, almost here in bulk, here are some of them:

The NVIDIA Geforce GTX 570 has a suggested retail price of $ 350, which unfortunately means $ 350 in Europe.
