Battlefield 2142 Community Day "It was with some surprise then that the 30 odd high-spec machines (AMD Athlon 64 3800+ Dual Core Processor, 2GB RAM, top-end Nvidia graphics cards) were in fact running Conquest, something all Battlefield 2 players are familiar with (capture areas to gain control of the map and reduce the amount of tickets the enemy has. First team to 0 tickets or with least tickets when time runs out loses.)"

XFX GeForce 7900 GS 480M Extreme "The GeForce 7900 GS has the same clock frequencies as the 7900 GT, 450 MHz GPU core frequency and 660 MHz (1.32 GHz) memory frequency. Where it differs is in the pipeline layout. The GeForce 7900 GS has 20 pixel shader units versus the 24 of the 7900 GT. That cuts the fillrate down from 10.8 GPixels/sec to 9 GPixels/sec. The vertex shader units have also taken a slight reduction to 7 on the GeForce 7900 GS versus 8 on the 7900 GT. Raster Operator count is the same at 16 with both GPUs. Standard with this GPU will be 256MB of GDDR3. The power consumption is quoted as pulling 82W under max power." Fall '06 NVIDIA GPU Refresh - Part …

ATI's New High End and Mid Range: Radeon X1950 XTX & X1900 XT 256MB "To make things even better, the CrossFire version, which has identical clocks, is also priced at $449; in other words, there’s no reason not to get the CrossFire version. ATI confirmed to us that you can run a pair of X1950 CrossFire cards in CrossFire mode, further reinforcing the fact that there’s no reason to even buy the regular card. You get the same performance, same features and better flexibility with the CrossFire card so why not?"

Battlefield 2142 - Weapon Tests "Battlefield and game development have one major thing in common: they both take a team effort. My name is Alan Kertz and on behalf of the Battlefield 2142 team I will be giving you an inside look at soldier weapons and how they fit into the Battlefield experience. As the Weapons Designer on Battlefield 2142 it's my job to invent new and cool toys and tools for the Battlefield soldier as well as tweak and balance those weapons so they fit the rock-paper-scissors gameplay. Some readers may be more familiar with my alias Demize99, both from the competitive Battlefield scene and as a Modder for various Battlefield 1942 and Battlefield Viet…

The Coming Combo Of The CPU And GPU, Ray Tracing Versus Rasterization, And Why Billions Of Dollars Is At Stake "If AMD and ATI combine the central processing unit with the graphics processing unit, it could collapse the barrier between multibillion-dollar industries, leaving both Nvidia and Intel to scramble. What will happen? Will Nvidia stick a CPU on the corner of its graphics chip and take a lot of dollars away from Intel in the PC? Intel is betting that something else will happen. In interviews with its researchers, they are confident that graphics processing will naturally shift to the CPU from the GPU. That’s because they believe that the decades-old technique …
