At the end of NVISION 08 visual computing conference, NVIDIA pulled together with several members of the press revealed some very interesting news for the SLI and Intel x58 chipset platform for the coming future chipsets based on Nehalem microarchitecture-based processors, aka Core i7. Until that announcement, NVIDIA plans to support only x58 SLI motherboards that also featured their NF200 chip, as was the case with Skulltrail as NVIDIA had no plans to produce Intel chipsets QuickPath Interconnect (QPI). But as now, will be to support NVIDIA SLI natively on x58, as well as a chipset, provided that the motherboard NVIDIA goes through the certification process.[HotHardware]

AMD recently launched SB750, which in combination with Advanced Calibration Clock (ACC) showed a better performance Pheneom to overclock processors. The SB750 is associated with AMD 790GX chipset and refresh the 790FX chipset. nVidia also wants to use the ACC and is therefore working to refresh the chipset nForce 780a SLI. The latest version of nForce 780a SLI will have a different Southbridge overclocking and more options in the BIOS.[Hardware]

Another competitor in the notebook this week, we bring you the graphics monster, Mythos A15 from Zepto. What makes it stand out from the crowd this time is embedded NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT DDR3 512 MB, which performs nearly 50% faster than its cousin pattern GeForce 8600M GT. Nvidia Geforce 9600 also features PhysX and CUDA technology, video, which enables the encoding and accelerates his notebook to more than 12 times at regular speed. Equipped with the latest Intel Centrino 2 processor P7350 (or P8400), 80 GB HDD, 1 GB of DDR2 RAM (up to 4 GB), the A15 offers unparallel performance. He is currently at £ 700 to the fundamental values of the model, and £ 837 to power the model.

With the recent launch of new graphics cards ATI, as well as from nVidia can be forgiven for thinking that the fall of the previous generation of cards would be swift and bezlitosne. However, that has so far proved to be the case, ATI, in particular, assuring us that in 3000 a series of papers is to stay here for a moment. In addition, fresh for the return of some hefty reductions in the prices of the old stalwarts like nVidia 9800 GTX HD 3870 and ATI can continue to offer great value, especially when you look at some Overclocked card. It is in that looking at XFX 9800 GTX Black Edition - the most Overclocked 9800 GTX even meet with us.[Trustedreviews]

According to the BIOS Magazine, Fujitsu has unveiled a new stylish White Amilo Pi 3540.  Our new laptop is based on the Centrino platform 2 and has a 15.4 “LCD, NVIDIA GeForce 9300M GS graphics card, 4GB of RAM, 15-in-1 card reader, e-SATA port, WiFi, and should be available in August for around 880 €.[Akihabaranews]

The GTX 280, on average, the fastest graphics card, you can now buy one, but also seriously hefty price tag, which most of us simply do not consider resorting to pay. This fact was driven home with all the subtlety of sledgehammer by ATI, a week or so later, when they released their own brand new card, in the form of HD 4870 and proved to be great, that performance does not cost the earth.

Is this the end, nVidia may have a hard time over the next few months, as the vast majority of people considered limited because of the additional 40 per cent pay only for the (average) 10 percent more performance. But this is not the end, because nVidia also just released a GTX 260, which uses the same chip GT200 GTX 280, but has a few bits of it off, so it is somewhat slower, but most importantly it costs less. So let’s see how it stacks.[Trustedreviews]

ASUS has a spanking new desktop computers called ARES CG6155. On the desktop is powered by Intel Core2 Extreme QX9650 (Overclockable to 4.0GHz) from the NVIDIA nForce 790i Ultra SLI chipset NVIDIA GeForce GTX280 3-SLI, to 4TB hard drive, Dual Channel DDR3 1333MHz to 8G, factories and overclocking, that increases the efficiency of the processor even by 33%. ASUS has also Ares CG6155 Blu-ray optical disk drives and memory DDR3 with the highest efficiency. PC comes with the operating system Microsoft Vista Ultimate. I think that the players will love this machine.[via digi-life]

Surprise! NVIDIA officially released its new GeForce 280 GTX 260 and GTX graphics cards. The GTX 280, NVIDIA flagship model, it is 50% higher than in 9800 GX2 last year, when, in his Overclocked AMP! Edition, and is loaded with about twice as many transistors as in 9800. New single-chip processor packs some serious number-crunching, such as 142 GB / s memory bandwidth, 512-bit memory interface. Other specifications final appearance for 1GB GDDR3, two Dual link DVI connectors and, of course, a Overclocked chipset. In short, this is the fastest graphics card can be obtained. Do not even go nuts, though - GTX280 with 1GB of RAM, you can run a cool 649 dollars. At the lower end of GTX 260, 896MB is more palatable 399 dollars. GTX280 availability begins tomorrow, and GTX 260s will go to the streets on June 26. And at the end put to rest this joke: Yes, I will run Crysis.

For several reasons we are not mixed opinions about the video card manufacturers to make cards that use two graphics chips on a single motherboard. To begin with, they tend to be expensive, which is understandable given the additional hardware, but still deplorable. Then the driver / game support that may be, if not up to scratch, means some games simply do not work or do not see any benefit from the second chip. Finally, the fact is that even if everything is working normally, productivity will increase from the second chip may be limited. It is for these reasons ATI last attempt to get our top recommendations in the form of video cards HD 3870X2, falls just short of the mark, receiving good but not quite there, 8 / 10.

So when nVidia launched its competing dual-chip card, 9800 GX2, we had the same sinking feeling in our bellies. However, the 9800 GX2 whether to combine two very fast cards in a package that, unlike conventional configurations SLI, does not require SLI motherboard and, at least theoretically, can be quickly unified graphics card on the planet.
