A computer products distributor has listed a range of graphics cards based on Nvidia's GeForce4 graphics processing unit, providing the most solid information yet on Nvidia's plans.
GeForce4, code-named NV-25, is to be released next month, as previously reported by ZDNet UK. The chip will be GeForce's first major redesign since the NV-20, launched last February, under the name GeForce3.
Nvidia sped up the GeForce3 line with release of the Titanium range in October.
GeForce 4 is expected to launch on Feb. 5. The details were leaked when Morex, a French distributor, listed GeForce4-based graphics cards from Abit and Leadtek for February. These details suggest that when GeForce 4 does arrive, even the lowest-cost cards will be a significant speed boost for gamers and other graphics-intensive users.
