Nvidia posts picture of a real Fermi card and makes a Twitter appearance
Well, this time it’s real – probably. Nvidia PR man Brian Burke just posted a picture of a Ferm-based graphics card – which he called the GeForce 100 – on Twitter.
In the tweet, Burke says it’s running the “Unigine Heaven” DX11 benchmark.
You may now commence your speculations about how it will stack up against the new Radeon HD 5970.
And speaking of Twitter, don’t forget you should follow bit-tech!
We’d been hearing that NVIDIA’s Fermi chips had been delayed, but they’re apparently far enough along for spokesperson Brian Burke to tweet this image of the new Fermi-based GeForce 100 GPU running the Unigine Heaven DX11 benchmark earlier today. That’s certainly one way to hit back at ATI’s launch of the fastest graphics card ever, the Radeon HD 5970, but we’d much rather have some hard info to work with. We’ve pinged NVIDIA, we’ll let you know if we hear anything.
