Early GeForce 4 Details

Feb 05, 2002 5:48pm CST tags: NVidia
There's a press event going on in San Francisco where NVidia is officially unveiling the GeForce 4. News Factor managed to get the first few details online (without breaking any NDAs that is). As we already knew there will be a regular as well as a MX version, but News Factor also mentions the new Accuview and nVIEW features. Nvidia should be issuing a press release with more info about their latest chipset tomorrow.

Among the biggest improvements is the addition of "Accuview," a new hardware technology that will offer peak frame rates of 60 frames per second or higher for 3D graphics at any resolution, Perez said, adding that the feature keeps graphics in the "sweet spot" of frame rates.
The GeForce4 processors also will feature a new display technology called "nVIEW" that will allow multi-monitor display on as many as 16 different screens at the same time, Perez said.
Other features include new user controls that allow changing of desktops and a memory architecture that delivers 128-bit double data rate (DDR).
