Some clock speed details have been revealed on some of Nvidia’s upcoming graphics cards. It is now thought that Nvidia have samples of the NV70/G300/GT300 silicon at the ready and some information released on these cards have given us an idea of the clock speeds for the Nvidia GeForce GTX 380.
This is according to BSN, who obtained the information from German website Hardware-info. Below is the leaked information taken from the website:
”The sample boards now come with a higher GPU clock. The alleged GT300 A1 silicon ticks at 0.7 GHz, with 512 cores working at 1.6 GHz. GDDR5 memory was upped to 1.1 GHz QDR or 4.4 GT/s [billion transfers per second], resulting in memory bandwidth of massive 281.6 GB/s. According to information we had, nVidia firstly clocked the at 1:1 ratio with GeForce GTX280 for a baseline comparison. If the leaked informationis true and those clocks remain final, that would mean GTX380 missed it targeted clock by a double-digit percentage”.

As far as I’m concerned, GT300 = ‘NV60′, not ‘NV70′.
G80 / GeForce 8800 in 2006 was ‘NV50′. Everything that came after G80, but before GT200 (i.e. GF 9800) was just a revision of ‘NV50′.
GT200 / GTX280 = ‘NV55′ (remember it’s still a DX10 GPU)
GT300 = ‘NV60′, first totally new architecture (DX11) since the G80 in 2006.
WHAT ABOUT HD RESOLUTION
DID IT COMPETE WITH ATI REDEON 5000 SERIES, AND WHAT ABOUT POWER CONSUMPTION AND HEAT
