Desktop Graphics Card Comparison Guide - Page 32

Just a small typo-ish thing I noticed in the guide. The 512MB 8800 GTS(G92) has an incorrect label on the right hand side of the guide. I got confused for a sec when I was scrolled to the far right of the screen comparing some specs

We have just updated this guide!

Covering 336 desktop graphics cards, this comprehensive comparison allows you to easily compare 18 different specifications for each and every card. If you need to find out about the specification of any card, just come over and check out our Desktop Graphics Comparison Guide.

We hope it will prove to be a useful reference. We will keep this guide updated regularly so do check back for the latest updates.

I've noticed that the ATI HD 3850 isn't shown as being AGP which infact does exist now.

about the 3870x2

the GPU core should be R680, not RV670.

the memory is using GDDR3, not GDDR4.

Thanks for the heads-up, guys! Will double-check and update!

Where's the source for sayng the GF9800GTX will has PS4.1 / DX10.1 support?

Sofar everything nVidia and the pundits have said says that they are not going to add support for the mid-point and are focusing on bringing out support for DX11 in the iteration after it. For right now I'd put a big question mark beside that.

PS, where's the Matrox Parhelia/P-series info? I was hoping it'd get updated in the next big update, but if you're adding the GMAs now, probably a Parhelia update is long overdue. If you need the info let me know.

Actually it's 2 RV670 cores, there is no new core for the X2, the R680 is just the codename for the combination.

Yep, right now just shipping the GDDR3, there are rumours of a GDDR4 to come, but nothing yet.

Adrian Wong · 21st Feb 2008, 02:42 AM

Needless to say, everything on the GeForce 9800 GTX is a big question mark right now. We will continue to change the info as and when new info comes in.

Yeah, it's not really a new core but two RV670 cores on a single PCB.

GrapeApe · 21st Feb 2008, 02:57 AM

Oh, you replied while I edited my post, didn't wanna waste 2 posts if possible.

But would just hope the Parhelia info could be updated at some point. Not a major gaming card, but still a pretty solid 2D editing and CAD card.

speaking of which yeah, should probably also add the new S3 Chrome 400 series cards, they're confirmed DX10.1 and also have new Chromotion features for HD acceleration.

I'll see if I can find last friday's press release for some details for you.

Well her's the main page;
S3 Graphics Co., Ltd.

They had an info sheet during launch, but I linked it at home. I sure if you poke around and want more detaill than that page you ocould get it.

why does it keep formating the link as non-linkable? Maybe without the ht...
