As the story goes NVIDIA will announce a new graphics card on October 30th. The development has been shared with EVGA and even if details are few, a couple of PR images, the identity has supposedly been revealed. The card will sport dual graphics circuits, one GeForce GTX 275 GPU for 3D graphics and one GeForce GTS 250 GPU for PhysX and physical effects.
According to BSN the GeForce GTS 250 GPU will not even be capable of rending a picture and be completely useless when you’re not using it for physics. The good thing is that the G92 architecture of GTS 250 will go a long way for PhysX and EVGA’s card will not need a second card for good PhysX performance.
Exactly how usable this solution really is remains to be seen, but if the information is correct EVGA deserves a pad on the shoulder as the first manufacturer to launch a graphics card with two different graphics circuits on the same PCB.
EVGA has published a “teaser page” for its Halloween launch.
PhysX to render a bat?
