GeForce 8800 in the middle of November

According to unofficial data of taiwanesischer manufacturers nVidia diagram chip in the middle of will present the new G80 November. The diagram maps on the basis of this chip with the support for DirectX 10 and the Shader Model 4,0 are to carry the designation “GeForce 8800″. DX10 and SM4.0 are introduced with the coming Windows Vista operating system by Microsoft.

The diagram map manufacturers go due to the fact that DirectX will be available 10 only for Windows Vista, of it out that the demand for the GeForce 8800 models depends strongly on the spreading on Windows Vista and new PC plays, which support DirectX 10. DX10 and SM4.0 bring new visual features and permit the use of “Geometry Shadern”. In addition a part of the Overheads resulted from the development of DirectX is reduced, which increases speed of operation and which to play developers more free spaces for other techniques gives.
The competitor to nVidia the G80, the R600 of ATI, might not appear in opinion of the taiwanesischen diagram map manufacturers any more in this year. ATI insured opposite Hartware.net that the next chip generation appears “in the winter”, without wanting to commit itself however further.
