Meanwhile, the producers of graphic card stopped the release of clones to reference video card geForce 8800 GTX and GTS, representing the overclocked models with the raised frequencies.
These two reasons stimulate buyer demand for these graphic accelerators, witch is the only on the market cards supporting directX 10. Let us recall,that first sales Of geForce 8800 GTX and GTS were completely low; however, now they grow, which forced NVIDIA to place urgent additional order in its partner, who produces the chips g80, the company Of taiwan semiconductor manufacturing company (TSMC).
The volume of additional order will compose from 3 to 4 thousand 300- mm monthly. Deliveries will begin during March. Let us recall that in the production Of g80 TSMC are used 80- nm technological standards.
