GeForce FX Revealed -- 12:07 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

Anandtech posted all the specs for NVIDIA's new GeForce FX, formerly known as the NV30. This latest chip is 0.13-micron, DirectX 9.0 compatible, and adds some compression to reduce the performance hit of antialiasing and anisotropic filtering. It will also take up two slots because of the cooling mechanism. These bad-boys probably won't hit the market until February.

The Master comments: Yummy, but I bet this sucker is going to cost a mint. Or two. Maybe three.

A.T. Hun comments: Probably four. It does seem to be a jump over previous GeForces like the GeForce 3 was over the 2. DirectX 9.0 games are ways off, so its full power won't be tapped for a while. We'll have to see how it runs Doom 3 compared to the GeForce 4.
