Yesterday we reported about the GeForce 9800 GTX + witch received the core increased frequency and the higher price.
NVIDIA officially reported about the existence of plans to move on 55 nanometers tech processes . Nvidia company was going to extend the life cycle of G92 based products, and the 55 nm would be advantageous. It is known also that in previous months NVIDIA suffered from insufficient high release level of G92 chips . The new 55 nm processes could solve this problem, and at the same time reduce the prices of GeForce 9800 GTX .
Associate got the photographs of the GeForce 9800 GTX + without Cooling, which clearly show the video chip :
According to some estimation, with the transition to 55 nm G92 chip area will be reduced by 40%. Now it measure 276 ² witch is very close to RV770 chip, which is equal to 256 k.mm.
But here associate report that the GeForce 9800 GTX + will host the previously overclocked GeForce 9800 GTX, which already arrived in stores. Does this mean that the first GeForce 9800 GTX + will be based on the old 65 nm chips? there is no strict information currently, but it makes sense to wait until July .
