In the latest issue of the Official PlayStation Magazine nVIDIA is supposedly admitting that its latest PC graphics chip, the GeForce 7800, is more powerful then the RSX GPU to be featured in the PS3. Does this mean that the RSX was basically an off-the-shelf 7800 chipset after all? We find the story hard to believe as it doesn’t make any sense for a spokesperson from nVIDIA to make such a statement. Hopefully Sony will respond soon and set things straight.Full Story at the Inquirer Update As expected this story didn’t hold water as it now turns out that the whole story erupted when somebody miss read the original article and posted about it on a message board. Several big news sites jumped on the story and all hell broke lose. NVIDIA has now sent out the right version of the article which reads : There's no doubting that NVIDIA's new 7800GTX is the ultimate in PC graphics technology. The card's G70 GPU, which is more than twice as powerful as two of NVIDIA's previous top-of-the-line 6800 boards, shares a lot of similar workings with the PS3's RSX chip - only it isn't as fast. Oh, and it retails for $599. The article actually says the GeForce 7800 GTX is not as fast as the RSX graphics processing unit that NVIDIA developed for the PlayStation 3. Add Comment  1 -

WTF!Unregistered - Anonymous Coward 09.04.2005 01:27 wtf it just said it was more powerful now it is less, i dont knoe wat to belive nomoe 8 -
WTF!!!Unregistered - Gh0stDrag0n 09.24.2005 10:22 #7 Learn to spell Dumbass! Less powerful but faster? Sounds like more bullshit to me. Could it be that nobody really knows how the PS3 GPU will preform because there isn't a game even in beta for the PS3? All the stuff I have seen is prerenderd crap and "this is what it could be like" studio junk. Let us see some realtime game footage. Then we will see if it is better. Add Comment |
