Nvidia GeForce GTX 260
Nvidia is not the exact size of the chip in square millimeters, but they still nm manufacturing process 65. 65-nm processor G92 in many modern graphics cards Nvidia is used about half to squeeze more transistors (€ 754 million) on the chip, which was about 330 mm ^ 2. Even with improved transistor density, with assurance that the GTX 200 chip is 600 mm ^ 2, if not more.
This is a great chip, and not many of them in the factory for the manufacture of plates. Assuming 300 mm (12 inches) in size plate, which is less than 100 kills on a plate with normal fields. In other words, you get some expensive products. expensive products, faster, hopefully.
Two products with the GTX 200 chip, the integrated GeForce GTX 280, fully delivers all the functions of the chip, and the least expensive GeForce GTX 260, the so-called "rescue-chip" that some parts of the handicapped (in the whole chip is for using chips with small defects, which would otherwise be excluded).
There is no doubt directly from Nvidia in the high-end product with this release. With price tags from $ 650 for GTX 280 cards and $ 400 for GTX 260 cards is estimated that these cards occupy a single graphics card and are reserved for air rule for the dual-GPU card.
