Neither AMD nor NVIDIA is planning to update their graphics processor lineup within the coming months. Even if we at several occasions have covered the progress of the next generation, TSMC’s problems with the 40nm process is big cloud of concern hovering above it all. In our latest article we take a closer look at how ASUS has developed its own graphics card with better performance than anything we’ve ever seen before. ASUS Mars GTX 295 is an improvement of NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 295 design raising all the stakes, from 4GB graphics memory to higher frequencies. Already Mars GTX 295 has claimed a world record and we have some more in-depth information to share.
ASUS has endowed each GPU with 2GB memory buffer and 512-bit memory bus, which means that Mars GTX 295 has a total memory buffer of no less than 4GB and a memory interface of a total of 1024-bit. None of these achievements have been seen before with a retail graphics cards, even less with “one” graphics card.
