nVIDIA GeForce 8800 and nForce 680i (1 Comments) (link)
 Thursday, 9-November-2006  11:22:41 (GMT +10) - by Agg

NVIDIA have released two products today: the GeForce 8800 video chipset and nForce 680i motherboard chipset. The GeForce 8800 is the first DirectX 10 compatible GPU while the nForce 680i supports Intel's latest processors and up to 3 PCIe slots, and apparently some special overclocking features.

"We set out to build the ultimate platform for PC gaming and high-definition video," said Jen-Hsun Huang, president and CEO at NVIDIA. "There is no better way to experience Windows Vista, DirectX 10, HD-DVD, and Blu-ray than with a PC powered by GeForce 8800 and nForce 680i SLI. Our announcement today is the culmination of four years of research and development and represents the biggest technological leap we have ever made. Gamers are going to be blown away."
