All your questions about the great nemesis of graphics, and some of its cures, answered in one fell swoop. Would you kindly jump right in?
According to Digitimes,
AMD and NVIDIA are about to increase their orders at TSMC for 65nm and
80nm, as they prepare to introduce RV610/RV630 (65nm) and G84/G86
(80nm). We can confirm that those are indeed the process nodes to be
used for these products, but we have not…
Since our previous report last November, the RV570-based ATI Mobility Radeon X1900 has decided to come out of the closet, with AMD's website recently admitting to parentage of the new high-end mobile solution. Today comes news of Alienware announcing the 17" screen m5790 Special…
A quick look at NVIDIA's website will reveal that they are currently looking for eDRAM engineers.
It's worth noting that they have never shipped any such design, and it
seems extremely unlikely to us that anyone in the industry is planning
to use eDRAM on products aimed at…
Anandtech has a fairly extensive CES writeup, containing
comments from many of the major players at the show. ATI demonstrated

NVIDIA has just released the (non-G80) 97.46 driver set, for both Vista x86 and x64
(RTM/Build 6000 and above only). It's not exactly a fascinating
release, but it's WHQL and does bring a couple of nice fixes related to
video processing, (dual-)monitor configuration and the control…
For the chicken-entrail stirring graphics geek, a new update of the PCI
Express Integrators List is always appreciated. It's often the case
that unannounced products get unmasked here as imminent before other
places. We've noticed that the November 30th update is out, and as is often the case,…
According to VR-Zone, the rumours that the GeForce 8600 (G84) will be using a 256-bit bus are incorrect; instead the chip will still be using a 128-bit bus, like its mid-range predecessor (G73), a configuration which matches what we have heard.…

The Consumer Electronics Show has kicked off in Las Vegas, and the
Press Releases will be coming thick and fast. We will putting as many
of them as seem relevant in the PR forum, and pointing at those on the
front page which we find particularly interesting.

AMD had its analyst day just a few hours ago, with replay webcasts now available on their website. It's also full of rather shocking strategic details, and bullish in terms of financial data.…
