I thought the GX2 was meant to have 2 GPUs? Or are there two in the one thing?

 

[stalin90]

it does, if you look closely it shows to different cores(look at the thermal paste), also the cores are faceing eachother look at the hsf in teh same way. also notice that some of the pics show a pci-e and some dont. so 2 cards in one thing...

also nice find wildside

its two pcb's each pcb has 1 dvi cable on it

 

[NosBoost300]

two different pieces

 

[stalin90]

different cores then the g92 gts also

 

[NosBoost300]

looks like a g92 to me

 

[Wildside]

so is the g92 a redesign architecture of the g80 or just a die shrink?

 

[stalin90]

ya but number printed on the core is different, i think the 8800gts is: g92-400-a2 or something correct me if wrong though

edit:

eh, i just hope it performs cause it look's like it has some steep competition. Wonder if nvidia is gonna shoot themselves in the foot.
