Gainward´s Ti4800SE-based graphics card roadmap Gainward Europe posted the document, describing the graphics card roadmap for January/February 2003, including NVIDIA Ti 4800SE-based products.So, the company will release GeForce4 PowerPack! Ultra/750-8X XP (OEM and "Golden Sample") and GeForce4 PowerPack! Ultra/750-8X TV (OEM). All cards will feature 8-layer PCB and 270MHz NVIDIA Ti 4800SE GPU; Ultra/750-8X XP solutions will have 128Mb of 128-bit 3.3ns memory, Ultra/750-8X TV cards – 128Mb of 128-bit 3.6ns DDR. Besides, XP cards will have VIVO, analog and DVI sockets; TV – analog and TV-out, respectively. Source: NV News
AOpen announces AX45-4D Max on SiS655 chipset AOpen AX45-4D Max bases on SiS655 + SiS963 chipset bundle, supporting 128-bit DDR. The motherboard operates with Socket 478 Intel Pentium 4 with FSB 400/533MHz, has 4 DIMM sockets (up to 4Gb of dual-channel 2õ64 DDR333/266). The board meets ATX standard, and also features 5 PCI slots, CNR slot, AGP 8x slot, USB2.0, IEEE1394 ports, integrated 6-ch. audio (RealTek ALC650), S/PDIF, LAN (Realtek 8100BL). AX45-4D Max supports Aopen proprietary Watch Dog Timer, EzRestore, VividBIOS, SilentTek, DieHard BIOS, Dr. Voice II.
Sîltek releases graphics cards on NVIDIA GeForce4 Ti 4200-8X Soltek officially announced GeForce4 Ti 4200-8X-based graphics card line. Soltek SL-Ti428X-D7DTV features 128Mb DDR, 250/512MHz clock, VGA, DVI, VIVO.
 Soltek SL-Ti428X-D6T features 64Mb DDR, the same 250/512MHz clock, VGA, TV-Out. SL-Ti428X-D7DTV is bundled with PowerDirector 2.1 Pro ME video editing kit. Each GeForce4 Ti4200-8X card from Soltek will be shipped in one of the Soltek’s "gilded" bags.
Gainward announces Ti 4300 Ultra GZeasy informed that Gainward announced the new Ti 4300 Ultra graphics card on NVIDIA GeForce 4 Ti 4200-8X, featuring U2BIOS alternative BIOS solution. The card bases on 8-layer PCB, features 64Mb of 3.3ns BGA DDR SDRAM. Clock information is unavailable, but the 4300XP card w/o U2BIOS, that seems to be a prototype for Ultra, features 270/560MHz clock. The most unusual innovation is the alternative BIOS boot button (on the photo; near VGA socket).
 We currently have no information about Gainward Ti 4300 Ultra shipments to markets other than Asian. In China the novelty costs 1299 yuans or about $157. Source: GZeasy
Intel to reduce chipset prices in 2003 Taiwanese mass media informed that in Q1 2003 Intel is expected to reduce chipset prices (except integrated solutions) that should boost the competition in this market segment.Perhaps, Intel plans to get rid of piled-up discrete chipsets, demand for which decreased comparing to that for integrated graphics cards, and pave the way for Springdale and Canterwood in Q2. Intel might also purpose another aim: to expand the presence on the self-assembly market. So, prices are to be reduced today and on March 30 (on the threshold of Springdale). From December 30 845PE and 845E will cost $30 and $26. To compare: SiS645DX and SiS648 ñîñòàâëÿåò cost $18 and $23.
