NVIDIA NV43 to be named GeForce 6600

Posted on Friday, August 06 2004 @ 17:58 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck

The upcoming NV43 from NVIDIA will be named GeForce 6600. There will be two flavors: the 6600 standard an a 6600GT which is clocked much higher. The standard is clocked at 300MHz+ and will use DDR/DDR2 memory. The 6600GT will be clocked at approx. 500MHz and will use GDDR3 memory.

It's an eight pipeline part like we suggested before and will be available in volume production in late September.

Just a few days now until this card appears and I was previously told that NV43, 6600 – not Nokia, Geforce will be able to use SLI mode. For $199.
