We were banged up in the Regent Formosa in Taipei, quite a nice hotel but it was teeming with Nvidians. Still, this gave us the opportunity to ferret around for some snippets about their next offerings.
The company is set to upgrade its mainstream generation of GPUs -- the ones that bring in the wonga -- this autumn with a new card, code-named NV18 – spookily just one more than the last one, NV17.
Well as you may expect, this card won't be revolutionary but it will be a nice refresh of existing Geforce 4 MX generations of cards.
The only thing that might benefit from AGP 8X's 2.1Gb per second bandwidth is multiple video streams and we believe that Nvidia marketeers will hit hard on this under exploited area. In this light, we might assume that marketing guys will speak a lot about video futures regarding these cards. In existing games, AGP 8X will only give you 2 to 3 per cent performance increase over AGP 4X, as we've said before
