GK104 Die-Size Estimated

Thanks to some good understanding of geometry, and great Photoshop skills, the punters have estimated the die-size of NVIDIA's GeForce Kepler 104 (GK104) GPU, using a picture of the NVIDIA reference board that was leaked last week. Compared to the known die-size of an AMD "Tahiti"-based graphics card, the die-size of GK104 was estimated to be around 320 mm², about 45 mm² smaller than Tahiti. The relative transistor density of the chip, compared to AMD's 28 nm chips, were also estimated.

D4S4dude, i was kidding.
And that's why I said it wasn't directed at you, I see that I could have been more clear but that's true for 99% of my posts anyway. I'm aware that you were kidding, but the truth is that a lot of people think like that. You hear it everyday everywhere, and people like me, who are interested in a more serious discussion about upcoming products need to fight with that kind of misconception everyday. People just believe in something even if they do not really know what's happening and that trully becomes the ultimate barrier when discussing this kind of things. So I guess I was just letting that out.

Sorry if I bothered you in the process, sincerely. :toast:
