Card Notes

Heterogeneous graphics card consisting of one GTX 470 for main graphics functions and one GT 240 for PhysX.

GT 240 co-processor specs:

550MHz Core Clock
1340MHz Shader Clock
850MHz (3400MHz effective) 512MB 128-bit GDDR5
96 Unified Shaders
32 TMUs
8 ROPs

Combined FP32 performance of 1,345.92 GFLOPS

the card shown at computex was a GTX 480 with a GT 240 chip

GF100 GPU Notes

PureVideo HD: VP4
VDPAU: Feature Set C

GF100 has 4 GPCs each capable of 8 pixels per clock. This limits complete GPU to 32 pixels per clock and because of that it can't feed all 48 ROPs when they all require data at the same time.
Additional ROPs however can be used for MSAA (because it doesn't require additional data from rasterizers, while giving more work to ROPs.)
