First NVIDIA Fermi Cards Available Beginning of December

This is now almost certain. NVIDIA will start offering its first Fermi cards beginning of December. Those cards are expected by both gamers and Pro users willing to benefit from their impressive specifications for GPGPU:   3 billions transistors engraved at 40 nm  384-bits memory bus supporting up to 6 GB of GDDR5 512 core units divided into 16 clusters of 32 cores each, being each allocated 64 KB of L1 cache 768 KB of shared cache L2 memory for speeding data exchange 32-bits floating point computing   If one considers the performance level of current GeForce 8800 GT with open CL, we are very interested and curious to evaluate the power potentially delivered by Fermi cards. We suspect that Apple will bundle them with the release of future Mac Pro models (as a BTO) expected in January. So, we could get a 12 core Mac Pro with a Fermi card, more than enough power to run the future version of Final Cut Studio
