Yep, the rumor is true, 1.4 Billion transistors have been squeezed onto a chip of silicon, which is really an incredible feat in and of itself. NVIDIAs investment of a billion dollars a year for R&D is readily apparent with this graphics card. Strangley, NVIDIA opted to push in another direction in addition to the gaming side of the equation. This approach has been tagged "GPU and Beyond". Essentially, NVIDIA wants everyone to understand that the GeForce series of graphics cards is not just a mechanism for only game play. This is no lie! Lots and lots of characteristics have been combined into this graphics card which have widened the PC capabilities we all crave. This video card can really play Crysis at a worthy resolution.

Make no mistake, the GTX 280 is a furious monster processor. As mentioned before this processor has 1400 million transitors. Think about that for a minute. The 8800 had about 700 million. This is the biggest processor built by NVIDIA to date. They virtually doubled the transistor count!

Here are some of the main features

• 1.4 billion transistors

• 993 GigaFLOP processing power

• 240 processing (shader) cores (GTX 280)

• 192 processing (shader) cores (GTX 260)

• DirectX 10

• New power managment enhancements
• CUDA Parallel Processing

• GeForce Physx

In the end the question really is: Why so many transistors? The short answer is they are being used for the shader cores. 240 of them to be precise. So instead of the data/instruction leaving the GPU for computation, it doesn't have to. This results really speak for themselves. This truly is the best video card on the market today. You won't be disappointed.
