POSTER: computer news   ||   XFX 9400GT 1GB LOW PROFILE	DATE:2008-11-28
XFX online catalog includes six models based on the graphic processor GeForce 9400 GT. Four card, as reference models, are equipped with 512 MB memory and two have 1 GB memory. The interesting model has 1 GB in the low-profile performance. The processor clock frequency for the model PV-T94G-ZAF7 composes 550 MHz, memories : 800 MHz. This video card is designed for PCI express 2.0. In European stores the 3d- card can be found for approximately 50 Euros.

POSTER: computer news   ||   AMD WILL OPTIMIZE CATALYST DRIVER UNDER FOR CORE PROCESSORS	DATE:2008-11-28
Different games can use the potential of multi-core processors with different degrees . Some games scale well the speed after transfer from a dual to four core processor (E8600 vs Q9400), but others just love Mhz's. Associate conducted a study, in order to estimate the optimization degree of drivers for AMD and NVIDIA video card under multi-core processors using directX 9 and DirectX 10 . If under DirectX 9 AMD drivers allow to obtain a certain speed increase with the increase of processor core, then under directX 10 the boost is even higher . For NVIDIA drivers under DirectX 9 the speed increase is noticeable, but under directX 10 this boost is even higher , and it can reach 21-24%. This result is achieved by drivers optimization . AMD in this case recognize the interpretation above, and it is ready to present in the first quarter 2009 the new version catalyst drivers , which will allow directX 10 video card to effectively use the resources of four core processors. According to Intel representatives estimations , up to 25-40% load on the central processor from games are formed by direct 3d and video card driver . If we distribute this load between several cores, the processor resources will be used more effectively.

POSTER: computer news   ||   TSMC AND HYNIX WILL BE USED IN NEXT GENERATION VIDEO CARDS	DATE:2008-11-28
The Taiwan semiconductor manufacturing Co. (TSMC) company declared about its readiness to release logical microcircuits according to the 40 NM standards  in spring , and recently this company reported about the transfer of 40 NM standards in the mass production. It is known that the important TSMC customers are AMD and NVIDIA companies. According to some data, the engineering GPU models new generation AMD and NVIDIA can appear before the end of years, and the mass production will start in the next year. With reference to Taiwan economic news associate confirms that the first graphic processors AMD and NVIDIA, released according to the 40 NM standards will appear in the first quarter 2009. It is interesting that the new 3d- card from the two most important competitors will use not only processors, prepared by the same producer (TSMC), but also memory, released at the same factory. AMD and NVIDIA stopped their selection at the GDDR5 memory from hynix production , which has the capacity 7 Gbit/s. Specifically, this memory will be paired with AMD RV870 and NVIDIA GT216/206.
