NVIDIA GF100 (Fermi) DX11 video card in action at CES
NVIDIA has delivered on its promise, the card is out, working and running Heavent.
As we had hoped, the NVIDIA GF100’s new Fermi-based desktop graphics card unveiled at CES, mounted in a configuration. The system was also put into operation and then Unigine's DirectX 11 compatible test program, Heavent, was run on the new top card. The VGA is included in a Maingear computer, is about 10,5 inches long, and of course its cooling takes up two card slots, which is roughly similar to what is known on the GTX 200 series. You need a 6-pin and an 8-pin PCI Express power connector to power the card, which isn't too much of a surprise either.
NVIDIA's throne claimant repertoire does not lack support for SLI (3-way SLI), DirectX 11, OpenCL, PhysX, and CUDA. The GPU is made up of 512 CUDA shaders, and the GDDR5 memory communicates on a 384-bit bus. Unfortunately, no up-to-date information has yet been revealed about the release, but there is every chance that more details will be revealed for the rest of the conference.
