The Open Screen Project is working to enable a consistent runtime environment – taking advantage of Adobe® Flash® Player and, in the future, Adobe AIR™ — that will remove barriers for developers and designers as they publish content and applications across desktops and consumer devices...

Nvidia’s 8800GT

The new GeForce 8800 GT is an entirely new GPU core. The NVIDIA G92 GPU core that is under the hood of the new GeForce 8800 GT is essentially a die-shrink and cut back of the NVIDIA’s G8 architecture, with a few enhancements and optimizations. With this migration to TSMC’s 65nm process technology, the new GeForce 8800 GT is targeted at offering solid mid-range performance, lower power consumption and heat, along with a competitive price. The GPU is made on a 65nm process, based on the G80 of the 8800 GTS/GTX/Ultra. The graphic card is set to replace the 8800 GTS 320 MB which will be phased out soon (the 640 MB version will stay for now). A 65nm process allowed NVIDIA to manufacture the chip cheaper, with less heat output and to add additional features. NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT sits in the middle of the 8800-series with a single slot configuration that uses 100 Watts less power than the top of the range model, but with a lower clock speed and six less “stream processors.” It’s a fair bit higher spec than the GTX and GTS models, with the same “stream processor” clock speed as the Ultra at 1500MHz, and a memory frequency of 900MHz. It also supports PCIe 2.0 and the PureVideo HD engine which offloads H.264 encoding onto the GPU. This should increase performance in modern games which use a lot of shaders. So gamers, what are you waiting for....
