NVIDIA aims for 3 TFLOPS with next high-end GPU * updated*
Written by Andreas G 09 October 2007 13:08

"GeForce 9800" will be a monster. Not that I think that this statement surprises you the least bit, but we were told by a friend that the next high-end GPU will not only sport double the performance of the ATi R680/2950X2, but actually triple the performance. The card "R680" is suppose to have two RV670 chips side by side on a single PCB and be able to output around 1 TFLOPS. This is the next high-end card from AMD/ATI, but we should not forget about R700 which is due this Spring. G92, or whatever we should call it due to the code-name mismatch in some charts, is also slated for launch in Spring.

When we first heard about the 3 TFLOPS it was too early for us to actually believe them, but it seems that NVIDIA is still telling its partners that 3 TFLOPS is what they will be getting.

Three TFLOPS could very well be a reference to Tri-SLI, or a dual-GPU card, but the source was rather specific in that NVIDIA is saying the circuit will be capable of 3 TFLOPS. We'll just have to wait and see.
