Recently NVIDIA reported about the full translation on 55 nm the technical process of all newly produced chips. As Exception remained only GT200, but some source already noted, that this chip is already transferred to the new technological process.
This was indirectly confirmed by the existence of new video card quadro FX 5800, which has higher frequencies and lower TDP in comparison with the GeForce GTX 280. Also NVIDIA President (Jen-Hsun huang) spoke, that the GT200 passage on 55 nm will pass without excess noise and it will be completely transparent for users.
Associate tested the new GeForce GTX 260 temperature conditions . With automatic fan control the graphic processor temperature was almost up to 10 degrees lower than in usual geForce GTX 260, Moreover the fan was slower and completely noiseless.
In this case the video card energy consumption was also noticeably lower than in geForce GTX 260. The graphic processor include a new for GeForce GTX 260 marking : g200-103, while usually such chips were marked as G200-100.
First, this chip marking indicates that this chip is packed on 29th week this year, which corresponds to July 14- 20. Now the GT200 was smoothly transferred to the 55 nm .
