NVIDIA Launches GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448-Core GPU 127
MojoKid writes "NVIDIA has just launched the GeForce GTX 560 Ti with 448 cores. Though perhaps a bit unimaginative in terms of branding, the new GeForce GTX 560 Ti with 448 cores is outfitted with the same GF110 GPU powering high-end GeForce GTX 570 and GTX 580 cards, but with a couple of its streaming multiprocessors fused off. The card has 448 CUDA cores arranged in 14 SMs, with 56 texture units and 40 ROPs. Reference specifications call for a 732MHz core clock with 1464MHz CUDA cores. 1.2GB of GDDR5 memory is linked to the GPU via a 320-bit bus and the memory is clocked at an effective 3800MHz data rate. Performance-wise, the new GPU proved to be about 10 to 15 percent faster than the original GeForce GTX 560 Ti and a few percentage points slower than the GeForce GTX 570."

One up would be Vanadium, V. And why not, it has a pretty cool ring to it, as would 560V, don't you think? Sounds like it has a really high voltage. :)
I mean, you have to leave some room for the future, if you call it the 560pt, you're soon at Gold, Mercury, Thallium and ... well, Lead. And I dunno if Lead is really what you want attached to your graphics card name, it doesn't really sound "fast"...

Fuze? Is that some type of trademarked name for the concept of a fuse?
I get my feeling hurt when no one makes snotty comments on my posts. It was troll bait. And it worked.
Thank you.

Probably not but it doesn't hurt when you're thinking of future-proofing your investment in high end graphics card technology. Especially considering how fast it moves.

"Well, fuck it. We're going to 449 cores."
