Firming up your expectations for Fermi
The Tech Report has compiled all the information they have gathered about nVIDIA’s upcoming new architecture that we have all been hearing so much about. Not just a graphics solution and not quite a full GPGPU, the Fermi can be a little hard to wrap your head around. They take you through all of the terminology you will need to understand the architectural changes to the G80 processor, the GF100 and then move onto the actual meat of how the processor will work. Stick through to the end and you can see some educated guesses on the performance we should see when Fermi finally arrives.
