Have fun speculating what is this "Tritium" GPU thing.

Tritium:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tritium

The emitted electrons from small amounts of tritium cause phosphors to glow so as to make self-illuminating devices called trasers which are now used in watches and exit signs. It is also used in certain countries to make glowing keychains, and compasses. In recent years, the same process has been used to make self-illuminating gun sights for firearms. These take the place of radium, which causes bone cancer, and so has been banned for decades.

Tritiated thymidine is used in cell proliferation assays. The molecule, a nucleoside, is incorporated into the DNA of cells as they are replicated during cell division. The extent of cell proliferation may then be determined by liquid scintillation counting.

:D

the diagram is interesting:

PLEASE do not hot link images from other websites...thats stealing bandwidth

[CaptNKILL]

Ok, so what the crap is this? :p

your supposed to start guessing!!!

Dont ask for clues!!!

/me waits for ati to release info on their tri-lithium gpu.

[Son Goku]

Meh, I'm not that much in a guessing, frame of mind :D I can wait till something more comes out... :angel:

/me waits for ati to release info on their tri-lithium gpu.

dont you mean di-lithium? :D

Hm on hardocps front page they descrbe trinitum as a family of products that when are used together increase performance.

its the next nvidia secret:)

sound storm 2 !!!!...

















one can only hope...

Looks like SLi:ed IGPs to me.

EDIT
I ran it through Babelfish, still doesnt make much sense hehe..

NVidia could new generation of nForce the AMD platform the official naming be the nForce 500 series, and the plan and the AM2 processor also issued, the chip code number is MCP55 and can contain by lowers to the high step different market, for example main attack low step nForce 550 (MCP55S), main attack mainstream market nForce 570 (MCP55-Ultra), supports SLi technology nForce 570 SLi (MCP55P) and supports double x16 cartography connection high step SLi platform nForce 590 SLi (C51XE + MCP55 XE), nForce 590 SLi will be able to play family's request in the hypothesis in view of the ultra frequency to make the improvement.

According to a Taiwan main engine board merchant disclosed that, nForce 590 SLi sells besides its pair of x16 cartography connection, its internal design uses compared to the AMD normal specification high makes the standard, has not added under the voltage in the chip group to be able to have the enormous ultra frequency potential, moreover nVidia also proposed the Trutium platform indignantly reads, when "Tritium" the MCP chip group matches �� "Tritium" GPU, will be allowed North Bridge, Sooth Bridge and the PCI-E time arteries operation to is even higher than normal specification high 1.3 times, will provide the higher transmission frequency wide speed. Temporarily only knows nForce 590 SLi to be able to reach to the Tritium MCP authentication, but GPU aspect then temporarily has not announced. Moreover, the famous ultra frequency memory body merchant disclosed that, nVidia also proposed Tritium DIMM indignantly reads, the memory body merchant like passed the Tritium specification and the compatible test, namely the performance uses in the Tritium platform has the certain guarantee to the ultra frequency ability and the compatible aspect.

Hm on hardocps front page they descrbe trinitum as a family of products that when are used together increase performance.
That seems to make some kind of sense with the translation..

hahah i couldnt see the picture....now i can see it. im wondering if this is the sli memory mapping the ive wanted for a long time...

Steven Lin, long time [H]’er, wrote in with this to say about my earlier referencing "Tritium" as a GPU.



Hardocp has been my daily reading material, so I thought I’d contribute a little bit. Here’s a really rough translation for [you].




“nVidia will name the next generation nForce AMD platform “nForce 500” series, and plan to launch at the same time as AM2 processors. The chipset code name is “MCP55”, it will be marketed from low to high end market, such as exclusively low-end nForce 550 (MCP55S), nForce 570 for mainstream (MCP55-Ultra), supporting SLI technology with nForce 570SLi (MCP55P) and dual x16, high-end SLi nForce 590SLi (C51XE + MCP55 XE). nForce 590 SLi will be designed and improved with overclocking enthusiasts’ demand.”




“According to a tier 1 Taiwanese motherboard manufacturer, nForce 590 SLi not only has Dual x16 PCI-E as its selling point, the internal design used higher standard than AMD’s normal spec. The chipset can overclock massively without increase voltage. Also, nVidia mentioned “Tritium” platform concept: when “Tritium” MCP chipset used in with a “Tritium” GPU, north bridge, south bridge and PCI-E’s operating clock will be 1.3 times higher, or more, than normal spec, this will provide higher data transfer rate. Currently, we know only nForce 590 SLi can be certified for Tritium MCP, GPU spec has yet to be released. On a side note, a famous overclocking memory manufacturer told us, that nVidia also suggested Tritium DIMM concept: if memory manufacturer passed the Tritium and compatibility test, then the overclocking performance as well as the compatibility is guarantied when used on Tritium platform.”




So basically, Tritium is not a new GPU or chipset, it’s a platform, much like Centrino and VIIV.



Thanks for the translation Steve, my translate tools were not doing too well with that text.
i guess this says it all
