GeForce 9 series
The GeForce 9 series, or possible codenames G90 or G92, is a rumored future NVIDIA Graphics Processing Unit. The Inquirer reported that during an analyst webcast, Michael Hara, NVIDIA Vice President of Investor Relations, stated that the G92 will be capable of nearly 1 trillion floating point calculations per second, or 1 TeraFLOPS [1], and therefore be over two times faster than the current GeForce 8800 Ultra. According to the same Inquirer report, Mr. Hara also declared that the G92 is slated to launch during Q4 2007 according to NVIDIA's new product release strategy.[1]
G92 is likely to support DirectX 10.1 and OpenGL 3.0 and G92 will probably be the "second generation" Unified Shader architecture from Nvidia. G92 is likely to be made using the 65nm process technology at TSMC.
